Positive
I just finished Julian Comstock, the last third of which takes place in Central Park, 200-years in the future, after “the fall of cities”. Not a fantastic book…mostly disappointing because his other books are so odd. This was both more removed from the present — his others take place in a mostly recognizable “now” — and far more predictable and familiar. It was an environmental, political parable as rooted in current politics as any 50s red scare sci-fi.
