Reviews

[Devin Wilson · Rating 2 out of 5]

Just not for me. Too many elements I find alienating, despite wonderful art and plainly high ambitions.

I'll also say that I find some of the commentary to be a bit facile, but that's tied to my general skepticism towards science fiction.

I hope others find the complexity and themes to be satisfying.

Tutte le cose belle ——- finiscono ?

I feel like I need to take notes, everyone is discussing metaphysics and science and what is real and the ins and outs of technology...it's like an illustrated essay, not a story. Not into it.
