Vagabonds
by Hao Jingfang
Thank you to Netgalley and the publisher with providing me a copy of this book in exchange for an impartial review. What is freedom? For the Terran people it is the right to earn money from their ideas and inventions. On Mars, it is the ability to pursue those things without having to worry about earning a living. For a group of young people from Mars who have spent their adolescence in internships on Earth, the question is important enough for them to consider revolution. The book follows these young adults, who have returned to Mars and are embarking on their new lives and careers while contemplating the things they learned from a planet whose ideals are so different from their home planet’s. This book is pretty deep. It’s not a quick or lighthearted read, but it is thoroughly enjoyable.
