The Single Strangest Book that I have Ever Read!
I didn't know that books could be this intreging, disturbing, enlightening, satirical, and strange all at the same time. This story definitly has a message that is akwardly strange in a sense that it is a common and blurred message. The thought of coming unstuck in time is truly brilliant and has the diversity of environments and scenes will keep most readers (and disturbed people like me) ...
