A horrifying look at humanity as the world around it ends
review
This is a beautifully written, disturbing novel that focuses on the choices humans will make when backed into a corner. It shows a bleak world and the beauty that can peek through in our actions. The prose are beautiful and it shows the lengths people will go to to keep the status-quo as well as their ability to change (a bit of a contradiction). I highly recommend pretty well everyone read this novel (it is short too so that's nice) you will learn something from it.
8/10
"The truth is that everyone is bored, and devotes himself to cultivating habits."
"I have no idea what's awaiting me, or what will happen when this all ends. For the moment I know this: there are sick people and they need curing."
"I know that man is capable of great deeds. But if he isn't capable of great emotion, well, he leaves me cold."
