mike_trigg 's review for:

The Topeka School by Ben Lerner

5.0

---

This book is masterfully written. Really a unique writing style with unconventional punctuation (particularly the minimal use of quotes) that threw me off at first. But it somehow works to create the sensation of incomplete memories more than a vivid scenes. The political and social message of this book was also compelling, and something I strive to achieve in my own work.
