A review by shiradest
The Pox Party by M.T. Anderson

4.0

Fascinating way to form a fantasy-world within the 'real' historical world, while unobtrusively pointing out the horrors of #slavery in an almost upside-down kind of way. This review will be finished shortly...

updated now that I have found my review:

this is the review that I intended to write after posting all the updates to the first Octavian nothing book by Anderson. From palace San souci to the Psalm Al naharot Babel, elegant and we commentary on their state versus that of their captors. Manages to recount things in a self-deprecating way therefore not melodramatic. And as all great teachers note comment one can learn from quote all matter, quote and from all people and situations. Marvelous. Very nice juxtapositions of discussions of color and pain with server servants in the marketplace parentheses excellent location to place this conversation! Parentheses purchasing their masters dinners and. Quote true back then, as today quote repeating is not cheap semicolon and children, I'm afraid, will not burn themselves. Quote and beautifully juxtaposed descriptions of exterior and interior personal battles being fought with death simultaneously.
