Telluria by Vladimir Sorokin

4.0

This was really interesting. It’s really a collection of short stories set in this same future Eurasia, where the drug Tellurium is in the background of everything in one way or another. We get perspectives of workers and (vaguely) aristocrats, humans and zoomorphs, biguns and litluns, etc. Some chapters are set up like plays, some are first person, some third person. Some chapters call back to characters we have previously met or show different points of view. It’s all really fascinating and well done.
