A haunting book that makes subtle use of its near future/alternate present setting, a bit Saramago but also something else again in its portrayal of women's inner lives. Reminded me (maybe just bc of the title) of Maureen Duffy's FIRST BORN & its thinking about affiliation, status, science & desire.
