Moira Crone

I love dystopia and this was sent in my hometown! It is quite poetic in parts and timely. After seeing the picture of the 74-year-old Jane Fonda at Cannes, I turned to my mother and said, "Jane's an Heir."

I've already forgotten what I thought about his book. It seemed derivative. In fact, rightly or wrongly, brought to mind David Mitchell's "An Orison of Sonmi--451" in Cloud Atlas. I don't think that Crone has completely imagined her dystopian futuristic society. Something is missing to make it both convincing & engaging. I don't know what that something is. It just doesn't, for the most part, seem "new" to me in its vision.
