My major problem with the book was that I couldn't stand Imogene. This book is a character study of a woman on the verge of a total mental and life breakdown. Imogene is the narrator and she tries to convince the reader, as well as herself, that she is in a love story. A story of a teacher having an affair with a student is definitely dark, and Sullivan really delves into the darkness and the hysteria that this affair causes Imogene. The content of this book will definitely turn some people away, but as I've written before in previous reviews, I like dark. The story follows this 'relationship' and its inevitable end. Before long, Imogene begins an affair with one of these boys. Imogene finds herself in the orbit of a generation of future leaders, boys from wealthy families who have never heard the word no before. Indecent by Corinne Sullivan is about Imogene Abney, a first-year teaching apprentice at a prestigious all-boys boarding school.
