3.4 AVERAGE


I spotted this book a few weeks ago and had a sense I needed to read it for some reason. I bought it after spotting it the other day, and, yeah.. it’s unique at least!

I think the writing just didn’t work for me, and a lot of the thoughts in it either went over my head or didn’t connect, but I was intrigued enough and got some nice visuals out of it.

I think I would re-read it for inspiration if ever writing or thinking about location.

No está mal. Una historia de clasismo y poder inquietante y cercana que hace reflexionar, como toda la buena ciencia ficción. Mantiene el interés, pero para mi gusto, le falta algo, es un poco plano en argumento y estilo. En sus mejores momentos me ha recordado a "La peste" de Albert Camus.
