Review of 'Continental Drift (P.S.)' on 'Goodreads'

4 stars

"Sabotage and subversion, then, are this book's objectives. Go, my book, and help destroy the world as it is."

A thoroughly depressing, violent, uncomfortable novel. But depressing in the accuracy in which it portrays a working-class white man from New Hampshire, a Haitian refugee women and how their lives end up intersecting. A unique approach to critically examining, and exposing, the American dream for the destructive hellhole that it is.
