This is my favourite novel, Dec 30 2004
By Nicole L. James - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: The Fur (Paperback)
The Fur is the kind of coming-of-age/looking-for-life's-meaning novel I wish I could have read as a teenager. But in saying that, I don't mean it's purely a young-adult novel. It's the kind of book that poked me in the very guts and stirred me all around in such a compulsively readable way. And it resonates with me long after reading the last word. The kind of book that I want to re-read now - only a few months after encountering it.
As a huge newfound Hobby fan, I eagerly await more of his work. It's that kind of book - that I just want to read more of, and that really affects me. The kind of book I tend to enthuse about and would recommend to anyone. Full of beautifully authentic characters, searching narrative and voice, haunting questions and choices of life. All played out in the imaginative, yet effortless and 'realistic' scenario of a state infested by a plague of fur and quarantined from the rest of the world. It touches the agony and the bittersweet, the fur-ravaged and the pure, the joys and the challenges of searching for a meaningful life.
Young adults of all ages should read The Fur.
