Scopic of Cancer Orwell Danes

When his father gets cancer, Orwell forces himself to take a closer look at their relationship. Hilarious and funny, this satirical debut novel gets to the heart of what it means to be a good son, but also what it could mean to be a good father. Set in London, Orwell questions societal issues such as race, gender, and religion, and makes use of all that exists around him in an effort to get himself and his family through fifteen months of "hell", as they watch the head of the family deteriorate with every passing day. A truly memorable story, brimming with emotional intrigue, which gets to the heart of humanity.
