Not my normal cup of tea, this science fiction novella was interesting and heartwarming. I love the concept of losing weight but maintaining mass — such a mind boggling idea. I also loved the main characters willingness to step in and change the narrative of a town blinded by bigotry and in so doing, rebuild the livelihood and self-image of his neighbor. A story of friendship, acceptance, and letting go, my second King story did not disappoint.
