Loeb certainly offers a list of thought-provoking provocations but doesn’t delve into anything that’s not already obvious if you’re a cynical mind. Predictably, money is the source of all evil, and what begins as a legitimate project to help heal the illnesses of the world becomes a profitable machine.

a?oeIt was human tapioca.a?? An unusual way to describe a party, perhaps, but a stickily accurate one. That's just one of many effective lines in Miriam Battye's Scenes with girls at the Royal Court.
