Shakar is funny and observant, much like his characters
The Savage Girl Will Change Your World
This book questions the very nature of image - something that (whether we like it or not) is a very real part of all of our lives as it provides the primary basis that we observe the people around us and judge ourselves accordingly. Read this book! It will change your world...
For every cynic looking for some hope...
An amazing book with an intriguing central idea, The Savage Girl helps put into perspective every bit of chaotic thought-control that marketing has put forth upon us. Very funny and clever, I am going to recommend this to anyone who complains pop culture has gone to hell. I can't wait to read Shakar's book of short stories next!

Is advertising the motor behind society?
Has marketing and hype created a world where all our beliefs are based on fallacy?
Is there any real meaning in popular culture today, or is popular culture just a corporate strategm for encouraging people to spend money?
Alex Shakar creates four irresistibly intriguing characters who's attempt to conquer society's fashion engine, leads to some bizarre, yet plausible conclusions about society. The Savage Girl is a delightful and observant rebuttal of everything we think we know about the advertising industry. A ridiculously enticing book!
