I read this because it is on the 1,001...list. It is a very bizarre tale, somewhere between "Psycho" and "Animal Farm". It is disturbing and a bit confusing in the beginning, but cleverly woven to redefine your definition of human. I would not put it on my 1001 list, but it is a unique book.

This is one of the strangest books I've read in a long time...yet quite unforgetable, too.

This book is in line with any of Grimm's stories with a little bit of Orwell's Animal Farm. Once you start reading this book and realize what is happening (because the author perposefully keeps you in the dark in the beginning) you will be stunned. I read this book maybe 5 years ago and still cannot forget it nor how it has changed my thinking. I cannot offer anymore without spoiling the surprise...

i LOVED this book ... it's definitely NOT for everyone ... reviewers on book kept saying it was a mix between Animal Farm, Twilight Zone, Stephen King books, etc. i couldn't figure that out until i read it -- boy were they right! amazing... if you like Animal Farm and/or like psychological horrors (that's maybe too strong a word), you should like this one.

One of my favorite books.
Warning - This could be disturbing for some people.
This is a book that I will never forget.
If you are looking for something different (still easy/quick reading) with a plot - read this.
