“I had no idea about any of this. My only first hand knowledge of the outside world is the view from Ms Elena’s car when she drove me home when she first bought me. As life rolled past beyond the glass, I kept how wonderful it all was. The maze of old city streets and tunnels, the rag of sun shining through the tree branches, the rows of red brick buildings and people everywhere. Little did I know that so much of that amazing world hated me for simply because I excisted.”
