Folding Beijing by Hao Jingfang

4.0

A short but interesting take on class being physically realised and the callousness of how people tend to overlook or ignore the reality of the world they live in across the divides.. It's interesting to also see this oppression realised but unlike most SF there's no grand journey or rebellion. The situation is what it is basically. There's opportunities to improve but to a third space citizen the dreams seem hopeless. Definitely recommend reading the authors interview regarding her own experience in there sorts of spaces and you can see the sincerity of the concerns on power held by policy makers and their disassociation with the people their policies affect.
