...have no idea what this book is about, but the combination of the male bathroom symbol pointing a gun at his head, the word “apathy” in bold, the sign language at the bottom, and the mention of Camus and “Office Space” in the reviewer’s quote are enough to capture any mild cynic’s interest.

...just as I jest about my father’s English-language faux pas. But her whiteness, or lack of it, is really non-negotiable. It’s whatever her heart and mind tell her, and that’s the way racial ascription should be: bottom up, not top down. I love her in all her non-white glory.
