What a powerful book. It takes every issue we’re dealing with in modern society and blows it up to monumental proportions. The circle comes back around with chain gangs that fight gladiator style. It’s so smart I’m sure a lot went over my head. But the ills of society are on full display. Prepare to be amazed at the talent !
