What Members Thought
This has been recalled to the library so I'll have to finish it another time. It is very interesting but difficult to read because it is written in a made-up dialect of debased future English spoken by survivors of a nuclear disaster. Quite a change from the previous works I had read by this author -- my childhood favorites, picture books about a little badger named Frances and her family.

First read in 2007
Simply brilliant.
I recommend this book with reservation. This is a book that requires much from the reader.
Without offering insult, you may not be patient, imaginative, or smart enough for this book.
The gauntlet has been thrown!
