The Doomed City by Arkady Strugatsky, Boris Strugatsky

4.0

pretty depressing in tone. set in a fictional and abstract reimagining of a city in a wasteland, the doomed city plays with characters who are as confused and despaired as the reader. every character seems to be at both times comedic and deeply introspective about random shit in the book. that's not a bad thing, it actually makes dialogue in the novel super funny sometimes. andrei is a really nicely written character, and the ensemble cast in general is quite fun, personally enjoyed uncle yura a lot.
