The style of writing is staccato, rapid fire, and captivating. It is very much a tale of our times, so many millions of people in this world are trying to be somewhere else, somewhere where they are not really welcome, will have difficulty settling down and will always be from another world, but one that is infinitely worse than the new one they are trying to enter. This is a good story - an uncomfortable story, and captures the mood of today. A great read.
