4.0

This iconic story depicts a truly harrowing and revolting future where the flicker of humanity is all-but extinguished. Can a person's humanity prevail, no matter what horrors they're subjected to? In this book, your faith in humanity will be stretched to its very limit. I would be hesitant to recommend this book, but if you are looking for a look into the human psyche that doesn't hold back in its brutality, this is it.
