Such a great story. The novel combines three separate threads, each compelling in its own right. Like good sci fi, one is smarter for having read it. This time exploring the topics of humanity and consciousness and language. And I enjoyed each little chapter entry ( quotes from in-universe academic books) because they added to depth and insights on the philosophical questions posed by the narrative. Loved it.
