One more intriguing aspect of this book is that it is told by various perspectives the first few chapters are told by Auggie’s point of view, then some chapters by Via (Olivia Pullman, August’s elder sister). It also has an underlying moral that people should not let their initial judgments affect their attitude towards a person. It is the kind of book that will change the way you look at the world and make you realise that everyone is fighting their own demons and no one ought to make their lives more difficult by being unkind. It is the kind of book that can bring tears to your eyes within just the first few pages, or have you laughing and believing that despite all the brutality in the world there’s always reason to smile. This book doesn’t use highfalutin vocabulary to be impressive but rather the way it depicts society is what makes it so heart-moving and imposing.
