The subject of this non-fiction book is evolution. The book fits the criteria for postmodernism as the text is presented in a ‘story like’ manner. It offers opinion – not just facts - faction. The book invites the readers to explore further.
The colourful magazine format of the book is attractive and reader friendly. Each opening features a main statement in fairly large typeface, using short sentences with thought units matching eye spans.
Multiple constructions of meaning are possible as images of fossils are presented throughout the book but at the beginning of the book the author acknowledges “the beginning of all things is a mystery”, suggesting to the reader that other hypotheses are possible.
