Title: No depth
Product review: I ordered this book because it was based on the movie Soylent Green, although it would turn out that it had little to do with the movie. "Make Room! Make Room!" is hopelessly outdated. Overpopulation is no longer a threat for America, in fact, throughout most of the Western world, depopulation is much more of a problem. This book not only failed to retain its relevance into the 21st century, but it is also a poorly written book. The motivations of the characters are never explained, and their personalities are never explored. Shirl, a major character in the book, is only described as beautiful. Descriptions of her past relationships with her father and her suitors are left out. This creates no emotional resonance for the reader when someone dies, or leaves.
