This was a VERY strange book. A collection of short stories - well, vignettes is perhaps a better term - recounting a fictional future. And while it was a fast, engaging read, very reminiscent of _The Handmaid's Tale_, it frankly made little sense. The writing was good... but there wasn't a lot there. Maybe this would be better for a book club so that there could be a discussion about it... because, I must admit, some meaning was definitely lost on me. It was interesting, though I would have preferred this idea to be presented in the more traditional novel form... I never have been one for short stories, after all.
