You won't be able to put it down - you will have to read through the night at the utter horror of it. But it is all so real and believable. I hear they are making a film of it and I can't wait but I also won't be able to bear to watch it either.

A thought-provoking analysis of how the human being is stretched and pushed by the will to survive, against all the odds - how altruism and positive human values can peek through the black, depressing fog of human selfishness.
