zkrisher, 12 days ago to sciencefiction I finished: Land of Milk and Honey by C Pam Zhang While I enjoyed the romance and the politics, I didn't connect to the cooking or the sci-fi. Even before the cooking turned grotesque, it didn't speak in a language I understood, and when I understood it felt blunt. Same thing for the science, it didn't seem to add up in any meaningful way. It's there as setting. I'd recommend reading The Arrest by Jonathan Lethem. It tackles the same subject but it a more convincing way. Though it doesn't deal as much with issues of race, feminism and lgbtq. https://app.thestorygraph.com/books/72c4c7a8-17ff-405c-ac09-93143ef860c3 @bookstodon #bookstodon #PostApocalyptic #ScienceFiction #AudioBook
