Re-readingh Cherryh

Note to self: When looking for a bit of reading before bed, you have to be insane to go for Cyteen.

I think it was the first Cherryh I ever read. Naturally I hadn't a clue what was going on until about halfway through. Every time I go back to it I cotton on to something else I missed on previous readings, and stuff I'd forgotten in between.

Sometimes I lift my head and go, "These people are designing psyches?! But they're all completely insane!" And if I'm reading late at night when it's quiet, I can start to think that the book itself is quietly reaching into my subconsciousness and rearranging stuff...

Yes, but has anyone moved your vase?

I love Cyteen. As you were saying, it's one of those books I see more in every time I read it.

Do CITs have vases? :-P I dunno about love, I have a sort of fascination with it, which makes me suspect Ari ran an intervention on me the first time I read it *heh*

I think it's ironic the way the programmers are so paternalistic towards the poor unstable azi—I know which dinner table I'd rather eat at.
