If there was ever a testament to how unbased and ridiculous racial bias is, this story is it. We waste so much energy as a species worrying about what “someone is” to fit people into a neat little box in our heads. How boring. How limiting. This book is full of people trying to fit in a box because, unfortunately, their survival depends on it. It was very well written and brings up quite a few complexities of how those boxes affect each characters' life.
