Shaniqua Lizardo’s Reviews > Oryx and Crake > Status Update

This book has been employing Palahniuk-style shock tactics for a while but they were a little too preachy for them to really get a reaction out of me. And then--TRIGGER WARNING--child pornography. Yup, okay, I am thoroughly disgusted now. (Despite this, I think Atwood does shock stuff better than Palahniuk, who comes off as self-absorbed. Atwood actually seems to have a purpose beyond being gross.)
