I read this all the way through on a 6 hour road trip. The author tells a story of political and human oppression first hand from two different perspectives and second hand from the point-of-view of a "story teller" who represents the propaganda that distorts the truth. The author had a remarkable way of making me "feel" the story. What an amazing talent!
