world, one that would satisfy all of our wants and needs. It may seem impossible, but what if we could? I believe anything is possible. It’s just as possible for me to hate the color pink, collect dictionaries, and own genetically modified flying pigs (when pigs fly) as it is for me to create a perfect world. And supposing it is possible, I will begin with my idea of a perfect world, a world where there would be no surprises and no mistakes. In my perfect world, there would be no surprises. Most surprises

An important aspect of the novel is the time in which it

As I opened my car door to make my way to the livestock barn, my nostrils filled with the mixed smells of hamburgers, funnel cakes, cheese fries, trash and manure.
