I’ve got to say, I didn’t see that ending coming. Did you ? I’d love to hear your thoughts. Feel free to leave spoilers.
SPOILER ALERT (Read book first before reading this)Do you think Klara saved Josie's life through an emergent intelligence that arose in her AI architecture? -- one unfathomable to us mere mortals. Or was it just luck that saved Josie's life?
Hey Emily. In this case, Cathy’s independence leads to dislike and rejection - perpetuating the unequal power relations between the sexes ( - discuss.’ :-)
You make some great comments. 'She weaponised her beauty' -- you put it so well and I agree. As you say, she's desperate to be in control of her life. Anything that makes her out of control 'like drink' - she despises. I'm just coming to the end of the novel now. It's been such a fab read.
I've had a number of emails from listeners saying that Cathy is a feminist icon. I'd love to know your thoughts and whether you agree/disagree?
