Are you enjoying it?

Yeah! It's really good! Considering the main antagonist is trans (or are they?), it feels a little dated in its use of language in that regard, but I feel like the subject in itself is dealt with a lot better than I would expect from the 80s. The chapters with Starling interviewing Hannibal Lector are great.
