The Book of Joan by Lidia Yuknavitch

3.0

Wow! Just wow!!! I've read Year of the Flood by Margaret Atwood, and this puts that dystopia to shame. The world with its complex issues Lydia creates is thought-provoking, and somewhat realistic in USA politics today. I was hooked after the first chapter, and didn't put it down. I enjoyed Christine's and Trinc's relationship, as well as Joan's and Leone's. Nyx was a little confusing at times. I'm definitely going to take a few days to let the theme soak into my consciousness.
