The Free by Willy Vlautin

3.0

An interesting wee book about ordinary Americans getting by. The characters are very relate able, however the plot does kind of potter on and go no where (although perhaps this was on purpose to reflect ordinary life?). There are gripping parts to the story, which drifts between the narratives of several characters, especially the dreams of encomatosed Leroy who imagines a dystopian world where he is hunted by 'the free'.
