Great review. You managed to tease out all the big ideas that made this book so intriguing. I also found the reading a dull in places and some of the plot a little aimless. However, those 'mirror to our soul' moments made up for those demerits.
Your reviews are always so insightful. I'd let this book slip down my reading list but I think your review has reminded me why I bought it in the first place. Thank you for such a thought-provoking review.
Thank you, it's a great book to read. The ending really ties it all together, and really gets you thinking
Well. What do you know. We both enjoyed Never Let Me Go than Murakami's works. Glad I subscribed!
Every year, 9 billion land animals live a short, horribly painful existence to end up (unnecessarily) on our plate. A few bits of bacon. A few slices of a turkey's breast. Welfarists, like Hailsham, urge for more "humane" treatment of said animals-- e.g. a few more inches of cage space. But they/we don't challenge the presumption that it's OK to sacrifice 9 billion lives for flavor.
