A fine hopeful read

After a long wait for the book (I won't ever preorder again) I did get it. As a longtime fan of Shirley's works I was not disappointed. The novel seems very hopeful to me, although others may assert it is wish fulfillment. But why not, we need something hopeful in these times of soft fascism. we need more imagination and a positive vision of something other than faster tanks and more murderous robots and Shirley provides that. Call it positive horror, for some this would be the end of the world, for others with a more utopian egalitarian bent, it is the beginning of something potentially good.
