The Inheritors by William Golding

3.0

Golding is excellent at getting you into the heads of his characters, especially where those heads aren't exactly like yours. That gift makes this both a challenging book and an excellent one. There were times when I had worked so hard seeing the world through the eyes -- and minds -- of the Neanderthal protagonist that i needed to take a break. Hard work though it is, The Inheritors is worth the effort. It will challenge your idea of what it means to be a person if not what it means to be human.
