Book Rating
Incredibly well written book proving Rowling's giftedness and diversity.

A brutal social commentary illustrating the complex issues surrounding class and problems that society doesn't know how to deal with. It reveals the selfish way humans attempt to shroud themselves protectively in ignorance, clinging to the pleasantries we manufacture in pretence that poverty, suffering and social malaise are not only a stones throw away.

Expect to be taken out of your comfort zone and confronted with stark reality exposing attitudes and prejudices within society and ourselves.

This movie is crazy in a good way. It keeps you on your toes, tells a good story, builds good characters, and does some excellent social satire. Don't expect a cozy feel-good movie, it gets weird.

"This novel explores the oft confusing social mores and prejudices of humankind, all while following a Mars-born human male's first trip to earth. I found it incredibly relevant to the America that I've grown up in."
