Finished reading James Tiptree's The Girl Who Was Plugged In.
A little cringey at best. It suffers in places because Tiptree makes use of an extended metaphor comparing characters in the story to characters in William Henry Hudson's book Green Mansions published in 1904. At this point the allusion is a little dated and apt to be lost on most readers.
