The Stars My Destination by Alfred Bester

mrsori's review against another edition

You hear ‘powerful/dangerous man’ and you can be sure there will be rape. Alas, there it is, just for the fun of it. (not even important for the story)

This book might be a classic, but for me it’s so cliche and crude that I can’t find any enjoyment in it.
