I literally started reading ‘Perdido Street Station’ by China Mieville last night. I had heard about it years back and had been scouring used book stores for a copy, but to no avail, so I snagged it from the library this past weekend. I’m only a tiny bit into it so far but it’s really cool. It starts off with two lovers. He is an older, pudgy professor, and she is a younger, slender woman. Who is red. And part insect. And enjoys the smell of the cactus-people. I think it’ll be an interesting book.
