Oryx and Crake is at once an unforgettable love story and a compelling vision of the future. Snowman, known as Jimmy before mankind was overwhelmed by a plague, is struggling to survive in a world where he may be the last human, and mourning the loss of his best friend, Crake, and the beautiful and elusive Oryx whom they both loved. In search of answers, Snowman embarks on a journey–with the help of the green-eyed Children of Crake–through the lush wilderness that was so recently a great city, until powerful corporations took mankind on an uncontrolled genetic engineering ride. Margaret Atwood projects us into a near future that is both all too familiar and beyond our imagining.
MA has hitched her wagon to a bunch of problematic shit in recent days but this book fucking rules. It had a huge influence on me as a teen and just rocked my socks as I listened to the killer audiobook performance by Campbell Scott. Excited to discuss with the book club next week. Corknut!
Just couldn't put this book down. Atwood's writing so so easy to read so I found myself just drawn in.
