I’m going to be thinking about this book for a long time. Toward the beginning I thought it was going to be an allegory about the problems with moral absolutism/relativity, but it got a lot more complex! More than anything I liked that it has the reader think about narcissism and ego and how far some people will go when they decide someone is worth following.
