But yes, it's tangential here but still in the same family.
As for _Ysabel_, there were at least two other major things that I had problems with; what you allude to was such a surprise to me that I didn't know what to think of it then, and now my reaction is more intellectual than emotional. I believe I've seen at least one review opining that one's reaction to the entire book will be colored by one's reaction to that, though.
