Jim Brown reviewed The Colony by Annika Norlin
A solid commune/cult novel
An interesting story about people looking for a different way to live. The novel makes clear that an attempt to escape can end up trapped in the same power dynamics from which one seeks respite. The most interesting part of the book is how it deals with the leaders of cults/communes/"leaderless" movements.
