REVIEW

This story was beautiful and tragic. The tale of constant alienation and sorrow was told with such wonderful prose and, even though I have not had his experiences, the writing garnered feelings of empathy and a shared discomfort with society.

The idea of society as an individual had an impact on me, and the observations he makes, though they come from an apathetic and distressed point of view, are introspective, giving an outsider’s perspective on the weirdness that can be daily life.
