Biting the Sun by Tanith Lee

3.0

Tanith Lee's books have this odd, undefinable, dream-like quality to them. They certainly have the same logic as most dreams, or at the very least feel as though they do. Biting the Sun, a science fiction dystopia in which the world is controlled by some form of robot and the majority of humans are encouraged to spend the entirety of their lives in blissful ignorance of the real realities of life and humanity (there's a 'never growing up' metaphor that isn't quite a metaphor throughout the book), is no exception. It wasn't entirely to my taste (I'm not much of a science fiction person), but I enjoyed it nonetheless. A piece of advice - don't think about it too much. Just go along with it, like a dream.
