What a fantastic read! What setout like a murder mystery, turned out to be an epic saga of the HUMAN CONDITION! BEAUTIFUL descriptions of nature, its creatures, genetics, evolution and ecology woven into a tender tale of love and loneliness. An unusually haunting portrayal of the soceity.

Little streams of goodness thriving, nestled under a wilderness of selfish, judgmental humans are at the heart of this story. These stories of unadulterated love that could fill your heart! Many scenes in the movie, kept taking me back to TO KILL A MOCKINGBIRD!

There is so much we can learn from nature, INCLUDING feminism! In every academic debate, there is this argument that "naturally" women are weaker then men! It irks the hell out of me to read it every time! The description of the female species in nature in this work, might just illuminate those dull minds.
.
.
Also in this story is a enquiry into education and how we can learn so much more in life rather than from school, which only feed us with stereotypes!
.
.
Like most stories, again, in this, we learn how empowering love can be and how much we all need it!
