In the era of woke and cancel culture this novel may seem anachronistic, but there was a time not that long ago when Americans valued freedom very highly. Foremost among the rights we cherished was the right to express ourselves freely, even when-in fact, especially when-our ideas or their expression might offend somebody else. Kayla Blaze goes where, in contemporary American society, it is no longer safe to go, mocking the hypocrisy in American higher education today and the education establishment's pretense of fostering "free inquiry." In truth, now more than then it seeks to stifle free inquiry and direct students' minds into safe, politically correct channels. The novel wraps a story of censorship inside the story of a lurid campus love affair, juxtaposing libertarianism and libertinism, liberty and libido. It contains a couple of scenes depicting graphic sex, a fair amount of foul language, and above all an undisguised hatred for all things PC. Snowflakes, beware! This novel is guaranteed to send you scurrying for the nearest safe space.
