"There are more whooping cranes in the United States of America than there are women in congress." Fact checked this...still true. #unreadable #joannaruss

Whileawayan culture is a form of socialist idealism...equally fascinating and horrifying. #unreadable #joannaruss

"Why make pretensions to fight...when you can't fight?" In spots, it's like a pulp version of Handmaid's Tale. #unreadable #joannaruss

I like the way, so far, that Russ seems to be accomplishing her point without demonizing...avoiding an us/them dichotomy. #unreadable #joannaruss

"I don't even remember the last time I had to go to the aquarium and stifle my sobs by watching the sharks." Not bad, as far as brand new sentences go. #unreadable #joannaruss

"I know who I am, but what's my brand name?" If that's not an apt descriptor for 21st Century life, I don't know what is. #unreadable #joannaruss

I have never been as aware of the subtleties of gender in fiction as I am with this book. #unreadable #joannaruss

This book seems to suffer from a kind of utopian idealism, the idea that one change (the absence of men) makes everything right, utterly ignorant the fact that people are shit to each other, regardless of gender. Interested to see where this goes. #unreadable #joannaruss

Yeah...I can see why some men would be upset by this book. Not as rabid (yet) as Regiment of Women, but tending that way. #unreadable #joannaruss

"There is no reason to imagine Nature as prejudiced in favor of human action. " An idea I'd like to see more authors explore, especially in SF. #unreadable #joannaruss

I don't think I've ever seen an author change POV like this. Going to be an interesting read. #unreadable #joannaruss

The opening quote from R. D. Laing is pretty much a description of the political state of the world right now. #joannaruss #unreadable

After an Xmas break, starting the next unreadable book... #joannaruss #unreadable

Reading "Snow, Glass, Apples". Probably my favorite @ColleenDoran art, next to "Gone to Amerikay". Loving the nods to Beardsley.

Finally finished this blunderbuss of a novel. aimcomics.blogspot.com/2019/…

Heavens above, I've finished the damn thing. Now I just need to figure out a writeup for it. #unreadable #thomaspynchon

"It is difficult to perceive just what the fuck is happening here. " 2/3 of the way through this book, and that's probably the truest sentence I've read in here. #unreadable #thomaspynchon

I give up trying to tweet about this book. It's like nailing jello to a wall...damn near impossible, and even if you succeed, what's the point? #unreadable #thomaspynchon

"Oh, I'd much rather bee in a Greek trage-dee, Than be a VICTIM IN A VACUUM to-nite!'" I guess anything s better than anonymity. #unreadable #thomaspynchon
