About this listen
Academy Award-winning actor and author Alan Arkin tells a brilliant tale in this young-adult novel, The Lemming Condition. The story is an allegory on conformity, as Bubber, a lemming, is faced with following his entire race to self-induced extinction. Bubber struggles to decide if he should participate in what appears to be an insane death walk, only to constantly be told by family and friends that this is just the way things are. The story provides a superb lesson on conformity, free thinking and personal accountability.
©1976 Alan Arkin (P)1989, 2014 Audio Literature. Phoenix BooksLoved The Clearing when I read it 30 years ago, it lead me to this book.
The Clearing is such a good story, better than this one I feel, even though this one is still great.
It should be here to follow this story as it leads to a better ending and is an integral part of the Lemmings lessons. Makes the story whole, Please bring this to Audible.
Great book
