's review

really liked it

Modern classic for a reason. A lot of deep hidden meanings behind the tragic story of outcasts. Simple short but rich with symbols and emotions it's easy to read but sometimes hard to comprehend. Beside the quite obvious 'man against the system' plotline I really liked that the narrator is indigenous. I really come across such characters so it was a bit of revelation to read about that kind of racism and unjustice.

Baba Agreed Lena, it's one of the key points I forget, the race of the narrator :)

Thanks, Baba :)


Mike If you're in the mood for something a little longer but just as good, Lena, you might want to try Kesey's second novel, Sometimes a Great Notion. It gets overlooked, but it was one of my favorite reading experiences of the past few years.
