Yeah, it had a few faults (such as the heavyhanded symbolism of the tiger being the thing that precipitated her move back home) but what I found most amazing about it was the way it showed the heartbreak and despair of trying to regress to adolescence as an adult and finding that the comforts you remembered aren't there anymore, and that any attempt to resurrect them will be an awful twisted version of their former selves. It took me to that emotional place so well.
