It’s not an easy read, because the novella doesn’t provide us with a set of sympathetic characters that we can cheer on. Rather, through some gorgeous writing and the complexity of the world building, each character earns our respect. And that makes the ending all the more powerful.</p></blockquote> <p>-<a href="http://mjstarling.tumblr.com/post/47441773128/finished-reading-on-a-red-station-drifting-by-aliette">MJ Starling</a> on<em> On a Red Station, Drifting</em></p> <blockquote><p>(&#8230;) a great, harsh, messy, human book that deserves every vote it gets.</p></blockquote> <p style="text-align: right"><i>Cross-posted from <a href="http://aliettedebodard.com/2013/04/10/linky-linky-33/" title="Read Original Post">Aliette de Bodard</a></i></p> <p style="text-align: right"><i> <a href="http://aliettedebodard.com/2013/04/10/linky-linky-33/#comments" title="Comments">Leave a comment </a></i> at original post, or comment here. </p><br /><br /><img src="https://www.dreamwidth.org/tools/commentcount?user=aliettedb&ditemid=5916" width="30" height="12" alt="comment count unavailable" style="vertical-align: middle;"/> comments https://aliettedb.dreamwidth.org/5916.html drifting on a red station public 0
