This DEFINITELY hit close. I’ve thought about life under this light for a while now and it’s hard not to (not saying I’m looking at people in code or anything) place yourself in some of these situations and really feel the weight of confusion and inner conflicts waring inside their minds at times. The characters are so well fleshed out that it’s hard not to sympathize or empathize with their pains and worries. J. Robison did a great job of creating debts in each individual. No pun intended, but he definitely made them feel real. I’d highly recommend giving this a listen. Or buying the hard copy! Both. Fuck it
