This was difficult to follow for me and at no point did I have a clue what was going on. Saying that, I thought it was really clever and regardless of my reading experience it deserves the high star rating. The themes were amazing and, at some points, we heard from the perspective of a British passport and that gained a whole star by itself. You could spend all day analysing this book and find new things to talk about. I enjoyed it!
