Anchor by S. R. Gurney is categorized as Sci-Fi/Fantasy, but I don't think that's accurate. Psychological Fiction seems to be more appropriate. According to the author, his objective is to explore the cosmetic cognitions of persona. That's what I call an ambitious goal. How did the author organize the book? Gurney created a simplified structure in which the days of the week are chapters (Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday, and Friday). Anchor addresses several topics ranging from homosexuality, sexual addiction, artificial needs, unhappiness at work to even some issues that make the reader question the absurdity of human existence. Gurney hit the nail on the head with his description of inner thoughts and conflicts that may not be resolvable. It is funny how the reader has (at the same time) the impression that the world is very complicated, but that it could be much easier if people exercised empathy. Or if everyone accepted that humanity is imperfect and that there is nothing wrong with that.
