Su'ur Agema, August 4, 2006 (view all comments by Su'ur Agema)
The book is a political satire centred on the fictitious state of Kangan. It revolves around the men in power and their associates. For the first time, an author has written on the upper people while making everything sound a bit casual.
The man does it again and reading the book cannot and never will be regretted.
