Book Review of Jennifer Government

Jennifer Government
chanceofsnow avatar reviewed on + 13 more book reviews


Barry's writing is strong at times, but his passion for the issues he raises in "Jennifer Government" tends to surpass his talents. No doubt the leftist message will be lost on some readers and alienate others, though this book is suitable for a budding young Democrat with an interest in contemporary literature that isn't too challenging. Ultimately, "Jennifer Government" clearly wants to be the liberal version of "1984," but it doesn't quite make the cut.
