Laura Replace 'organ donors' with '9-5 job, broken family and mortgage'. That's what I saw in this book.

I saw it as a parallel to cultural indoctrination. Why do people stay in unhappy marriages? Why don't they try to change their job? Some do, but most don't. Most of us do what's expected of us. That's what I think the novel is about.(less)
