Haven't had a chance to read a lot the last week or so (PhD submission deadline in a week.... zzz). But this book is mind-blowing. The entire premise (2 cities in the same physical space) feels like something a lesser writer would lose sight of, under the quagmire of other narrative details. But China's masterful craft is on full display here.

Two cities co-exist in the same physical space, hijinks ensue (but seriously, this book is bizarre, weird, wonderful, strange, creepy... all at the same time). I've read a lot of Mieville in the past, but this is just top shelf stuff.
