Just completed Chapter 1 and it’s interesting so far. I admire pre-80s/90s authors who are able to visualise a technologically advanced setting because it must be so alien. How do you describe a technology/item that has yet to exist for people to understand? Some of the terms used are also new to me and I can’t quite tell what it’s supposed to be but I roughly get the context of its use.

Just completed chapter 2 and it was quite perplexing because I didn’t really understand what was going on with John Isidore’s “fusions”.
It’s also interesting how the author imagined the world would react after a devastating war. Given that this book was published in 1968, it seems like the author expected there would be some level of care by the government. Not sure if I can say the same these days.
