I am quite well into it, and find it very disturbing. My interpretation is that her stepfather is a paedophile who married her mother to gain access to the child, as in the case of Lolita, and I find that, and the attitude of her parents, for whom she is just a nuisance when she isn't a weapon, quite dreadful.
Maybe I am reading too much into it, but for me it is the only interpretation which makes sense.
