The Alphabet Challenge is the story of a future world in which political correctness has been taken to an extreme level. Everyone has to be careful not to offend anyone else. PeopleCare helps makes this possible, by passing laws that cater to all groups--some of which include People for the Right to Wear Fur If It's Cold And They Feel Like It, Individuals of Different Abilities, and Single Mothers Whose Wealthy Lovers Try to Squelch Their Fiercely Independent Spirit. When one man decides he needs to make some money, he invites people to join the Alphabet Challenge, a group designed for people with "oppressive" names. They fall for it, and pay him money in the process.
This book is an excellent satire. In this day and age people are constantly worrying about ensuring rights for everyone, always wondering if someone might be offended by various terms. Yes, it is important to care for others, but sometimes it makes you wonder: how far can it go? The Alphabet Challenge answers that question, making for an insightful and entertaining read.
