Letters From The Light by Shel Calopa

4.0

The book is set in a world where light is only available to the upper class of society. The main protagonist in the beginning of the story is about a boy named Sam who has grown up in a town full of blind workers.

I really enjoyed the references that the author made to Australian cities and culture. The author has mixed this well in a setting with advanced technology given to the elite and very basic and poor living conditions of the working class.

I found this story quite creative and there were definitely underlying messages about prejudices and how generations can inherit prejudices, but that there can also be the ability for our prejudices to be influenced by others as well.

Overall this was a great read that I would give 3.5 stars out of 5.
