This book spoke to me it’s a masterpiece and it’s even set in my hometown teehee. I picked up on everything the writer was putting down. The writing is amazing. I loved the beautiful ways it dissected the morality of poverty and corruption. The chapter What Lovely Weather We’re Having (or the importance of Air-Conditioning) ugh beautiful. The fact that we’re the judge in the trial and the trial itself. The way it’s meaningless and points to a bigger issue showing the failures of the justice system when it operates within the confines of a corrupt society. The title. The endinggg. I loved the book from the moment I read the prologue. I think it’s a masterpiece and it speaks to me.
