Friends, please please please read this book! It is easily the most revelatory and extraordinary book I've read in years, maybe ever. It's an anthology of essays by gifted writers who were labeled as "nonverbal" and "intellectually disabled" for much ...more | |

Dystopian/speculative fiction is my favorite type of read, and Laila Lalami hits it out of the park with this story. It's kind of a Black Mirror version of Kafka's The Trial, with shades of School for Good Mothers and Minority Report. Beautifully wri ...more | |

“But that was the way life worked. Every human being was the result of a million different factors mixing together -- one of a million sperm arriving at the egg at exactly a certain time; even a millisecond off, and another entirely different person would result.
