Insofar as the word 'should' even has meaning, then we must say that the past is exactly as it should be, everything that happened should have happened, and everything that should happen will happen

Latest Review: Brief First Encounter by Thomas Miezejeski

Post by Cristina-Ioana Toader »

Many of his observations comparing life in Pakistan with life in America are humorously sketched. The book certainly contains humorous moments that effortlessly brought a smile to my face. For instance, there's the amusing episode with the vending machine where he stood waiting expectantly, not realizing he needed to press a button to get a can of Coke. Then there's the visit to McDonald's, where the author insightfully captures why such a place is a wonderland for children.
