A reader recently commented that my novel is little more than a scathing indictment against the modern world.

It's been said there's a degree of autobiography in every author's first novel. Perhaps this is another way of saying a first novel presents self-actualization, which may or may not venture towards indictment.

Thanks for the comment, Matt. You make an interesting and valid point. Perhaps my second novel will be a full-on indictment! :)
