Citation :
« Despite [Léa] Pool's blithe European denial of the politics of sexual identity, the decision to cut short the lesbian character's coming of age through madness and self-destruction has an inevitable ideological edge. By the very fact of resorting to the pre-Stonewall trope of figuring such destruction as a lesson for the heterosexual characters' own interrupted coming of age, Pool loses her nerve, backtracking into an oddly incongruous and anachronistic othering of Paulie's sexual and gender identities. »
