Flight: A Novel by Sherman Alexie
Flight: A Novel

dante0sparda, May 29, 2008

The book Flight by Sherman Alexie is an adventure through time. The main character, a boy named Zits who grew up going from one foster house to the next meets Justice, a boy about the same age as zits but who is like a young enlightener. After meeting Justice Zits gets ripped through time and sent into different bodies and experiences death many times over. He gets to feel how it is to kill and whether or not killing is right or wrong. Throughout his journey he kills for pleasure, for revenge, and even for his own safety. This book brings out the questions of what makes killing okay enough for people to do it. I would recommend this book for people who like to challenge the way the world revolves.
