We had a long discussion about what happened in the book. It was difficult and I lost my way while reading it sometimes. But it gave us things to think about. The people in the book had difficult things happend to them, and they reacted in a way that did not move them out of their situation. There was a feeling of no control and loneliness in the book. I think I will have to read it again to really understand what happened and all the science discussed in the book
