( ) I can't escape the knowledge that Ruth is not a likeable person; some people aren't. Should the fact that I gave birth to her blind me to that? I listened to this novella which was split between 2 recent StarShipSofa episodes. I didn't really like it because the main characters are unpleasant narcissists, but it was interesting to read it just after finishing the non-fiction book The Self Illusion. If your self is in large part made up from your memories, what does that mean for the characters of Trading Rosemary, using their own memories as currency and taking on other people's memories either fleetingly or for longer periods of time? The concept was interesting, but I couldn't get over the way Rosemary contemptuously compares her daughter to a fish, and how exactly could the economy function when everyone is able to create more money? And of course there is my personal issue with stories that gave too much focus on the sense of smell. If the scent of the material chosen for each coin is related to the memory it holds, how would that work for me, when I have no sense of smell? sin reseñas | añadir una reseña
