Query: Good read about terrible abuse

I enjoyed this book despite its subject matter. The descriptions of child sexual abuse are horrifying, and it is difficult to forget the images, so sensitive readers should beware. Ironically, when the author presents healthy adult sexuality between consenting adults as a contrast to the horror of child pornography, it seems forced and the vocabulary she uses seems almost silly. I appreciate that the characters return to the practice of their faith as a means of coping with tragedy, and the religious aspects of the novel seem organic rather than belabored. Even though it is about one of the most disturbing topics possible to imagine, the book is worth reading.
