The 80s pop culture references are so clumsily laid on, they lose any fun they may have held for me after the first chapter.
Sure, the author has done his research, but this reads as if it was written by a machine trying to approximate human emotion and interaction; technical pitches for gadgets yet to be commissioned in place of wit, story and heart.
Very disappointing.

One of my favourite things about this book was portrayal of uncomfortable family dynamics and the odd state of limbo these women lived in, professionally and personally - something like looking into a window on another culture and generation.
It's a story that manages to be shocking, gruesome, almost inhuman but still somehow so comparable to our own world.
