Made me miserable! I loved how the narration explains stuff to you like you’re an alien, however I wish all the stuff it explained wasn’t so blasted upsetting! Maybe Kurt needed to touch more grass :( Painfully cynical book but super engrossing and interesting.

This ping-pongs from being so prescient and representative and understanding of the human condition and the systems of oppression it's constructed to being outright transphobic, homophobic, misogynistic, and devolving into racial stereotypes. Severe whiplash but generally well-meaning, and a potential queer interpretation save this one. If you can get past the ugliest bits there's some pretty powerful philosophy to take away from it, it just would be far better if it weren't about race at all.
