Representaion Supposing Books Why Not-World
Librarian's note: Alternate cover edition of ISBN 1481959824. Young Elsie Boncoeur is staging a one-girl rebellion against a world full of ignorance and prejudice, but her search for a world based on intelligence and justice leads her into a surreal alternate universe, where Einstein won World War II, the Greek gods were real and the citizenry are guided by the moral precepts of a lost Shakespeare comedy.Rating Out Of Books Why Not-World

Elsie seems to be a stand-in for feminism and I can't get

This is, in fact, the first book I ever wrote, which explains, to some
Highly ambitious ideas but unfortunately the characters weren't believable at all and the worlds described were rather one-dimensional.
Thanks for the fun read.
It is very imaginative. Never read anything quite like it. Well written, although the plot is a bit erratic. If you're easily offended, you might not like it. It personally mentions God, Virgin Mary, Hitler and his architect Speer and they actually figure in the plot. I already saw a German girl tearing the book apart here on goodreads and I can guess why. If your family history has any direct connection to the Nazis or the Catholic church you might hate the book. I can see this book causing a
