Description ▲
A novel about many things: one's purpose, freedom and imprisonment. What is it that is keeping us stuck? By the end of the story, the male character is not in any rush to escape, for he has become accustomed to his way of life. This brings to mind how many of us talk about change, desire change but can't or won't when opportunities present themselves. Settling for the comfortable and routine.
