She is, and what's so sad to me about that is she seems to be writing hatefic about her former universe. Many of the problems were always there to some degree, but originally Anita did not think enslaving people was good. She wanted to try to be a basically good person and help people and have a semi-normal life. And now everything's gone topsy-turvy as LKH tries to make her main character embrace everything she used to be against. Yet Anita's obviously miserable now, no matter how often LKH tries to convince us otherwise.
I wouldn't truly mind if the books had just become ott wish fulfillment with Anita having a million powers and a zillion lovers, so long as they weren't morally repugnant. But it's pretty clear nowadays that LKH is far more moved to write by spite than anything else.
