Meh ... I chose this because I wanted to use a The Waste Land for #192019 ... but after I read it I realized I already HAD an entry for 1922 😫
That being said, reading notes that clarify the allusions that litter this poem is more helpful than I can say. But the work IS scholarly - if you‘re looking for something lighter to illuminate the poem, you might feel bogged down by this.

Not too sure how I feel about this book. I didn‘t dislike it, but I‘m not the biggest fan of it. I liked how humans “transformed” and the grafting idea was interesting, but I wasn‘t a big fan of some of the language used. I also don‘t know how to categorize it. Dystopia? Love? Feminism? Apocalypse? #wars #space #wasteland.
