in a paradox way i also found it to be hopeful somehow, at least when it comes to how deeply humanity is rooted within us.Â

I am the sterile offspring of a race about which I know nothing, not even whether it has become extinct. Perhaps, somewhere, humanity is flourishing under the stars, unaware that a daughter of its blood is ending her days in silence.
Such a frustrating book! Not a single question is answered and we're left wondering from start to finish. And yet the bleakness of everything translates into a real affection for the characters, even the minor ones. These women were left abandoned to a world which was unable nor willing enough to care for them, and even they knew from the very start that they never stood a chance against it.
