The Native Commissioner, by Shaun Johnson

My gosh why does a discussion about a book have to turn into this ridiculous Flame-war about grammar and differing opinions. I liked the book, I'm glad it was prescribed. Some people don't. That's fine. Keep the forum about the book instead of being over-sensitive or rude. You don't know these people, it doesn't help to insult them. Honestly.

So anyway.. anyone know where I can find any sort of summary? I haven't managed to finish the book (uncharacteristic of me, but, matric art is insanely time-consuming), and I'm writing English2 on Wednesday...

just summarise the book

What points in an essay could you use to state whether George is a hero or not ?

can i just say, GROW UP!!!

could the author of native commissioner be seen as an artist according to his emotions and actions in his novel

Clearly, based on your use of language and utter lack of any intelligent grammar or sentence structure, you are not of the level to appreciate the novel for the value it has.
This book does not "sucks as dam" whatever the hell that means.
Also,'prescribe" not "Pre sciibe'
Maybe you'd be more suited to the books in the children's section.

Thank you for putting such immaturity in its place. Well spoken

Ironfinger88888 get your own quotes dipshit!!! I have brilliant ones and this is 2012 so you've already failed...shame.
