coronam 's review for:

The Orphan Master's Son by Adam Johnson
5.0

A thriller. A love story. A dystopian novel (OF A PLACE THAT ACTUALLY EXISTS). Call it what you will, but "The Orphan Master's Son" is a novel that aimed for something bigger and hit the mark. The characters, the setting, literary devices like propaganda chapters—it's all amazing. And after reading it you'll agree that sometimes truth is stranger than fiction.
