A brilliant satire - By: ans_other_library, 15 May 2006
Controversial & criticised by many, Checkpoint is a stark satire on political activism. While the characters are intentionallly simple, perhaps even a bit 2D, there is evidence that plenty of research has gone into presenting the reader with real facts & a true representation of the frustration & impotence felt by a significant proportion of our generation. It's funny, sometimes ridiculous & well worth the read.
