Description
"A timely, speculative thought experiment in perspective, privilege, and identity." Kirkus"The conceit behind Shustermans latest is truly unique. While it exhibits the authors usual storytelling aplomb, it also manages to delve into more serious and timely subject matter, such as racism, sexism, and homophobia. Despite these heavy topics, the story still moves at a lively pace and, thanks to a zany sci-fi twist, manages to pack in a few laughs as well."
