The Murderer's Ape

Seeing an intelligent gorilla as the protagonist adds a unique layer to the story. I wonder if this was meant to challenge perceptions of animals and humans alike.

The story felt surprisingly deep and touching. I'm curious if others found themselves rooting for the gorilla in the same way as for human characters.

The backdrop of a specific time period adds complexity, but I wonder if the author intended it to comment on real-world issues of that era.
