The concept of this books was interesting. It’s the future. There are different “zones” people get moved to each rotation. At each zone they get different roles. The purpose I suppose is so people aren’t settled and therefore cannot plan or rebel the system. Reproduction is pretty regimented and planned. Throughout most of this book I thought we were following the main character through his different rotations and the various roles this has given him, bin man, orderly, dad. Towards the end he starts a revolution so he doesn’t have to rotate anymore and can be with the woman he loves. How he reaches this point it fairly interesting, but I feel like there could have been more of a build up to it. It seemed like a thing a lot of people were thinking about and his luck enabled him to put a plan in place. I don’t know, it felt like something was missing from the narrative.
