An intriguing book, set in a post-apocalyptic Asia. It was first published in 1984, and it feels like it must have been ahead of its time, with its refreshingly non-Western cast of characters, and explorations of the spectrum of sexuality. It's as complex and challenging as anything Jones has written (I know that I read its sequel many years ago, but I can't remember anything about it that relates to this first book), but at the same time is one of her more reader-friendly books. Plus, of course, one of the narrators is a cat (bonus points for that!). ( )

What a strange sad book. I didn't really understand why Cho and Wo were bringing the end of the world... Although the Nirvana mention was a tip... I suppose that means the Rulers were human too? Still, there must have been more to it than that.I wonder, what made the angel dolls? I suppose it didn't survive them. ( )
