This was a re-read for my book club–my choice even.
I have to say, I liked it better the first time. I realized, when re-reading it, that what I’d enjoyed most about the book was the basic underlying concept. Said concept is outlined in the preface to the book. Reading the book is like a long, novelized “What-if”. If the concept in the preface is correct, what would it be like…?
It gives meat to the bones laid out in the beginning, but it’s not necessary. It took me a long time to slog through this second reading–I doubt that there will be a third.
Or it could be that it’s much too deep for vacation reading, who knows?
