A Wasteland of Strangers

Summary: Clothes make the Man
Review: So very inventive and wonderfully written. The author manages to present each character in three dimensions and true to form. This is a modern vesion of Gottfried Keller's "Clothes Make the Man", showing how outer appearances can create strong prejudice. And, sad to say, conformity is still a must in today's culture. In some European countries, police even set up a raster of neighborhoods, according to the motto: "You don't wear jeans, you are suspect". Big Brother is prejudiced.
