Ben, In the World by Doris Lessing |
In this sequel to 'The Fifth Child', Ben becomes the main character and we don't learn anything new about his family. Ben is very lonely, not equipped to deal with life in general: he's very strong physically but very naïve, more an animal than a human being. It's a quick but deep read.
