I tried to write a plot summary and couldn’t do it justice. So instead I’ll talk about themes:
individuality vs. subsumption
theology
the nature of love and sexual attraction
art restoration
making a wrong choice intentionally just to prove you’re capable of making choices
It’s very funny, and has a sassy robot, which we all love.
My favorite quote:
A man is an angel that has become deranged, Joe Fernwright thought. Once they – all of them – had been genuine angels, and at that time they had had a choice between good and evil, so it was easy, easy being an angel. And then something happened. Something went wrong or broke down or failed. And they had become faced with the necessity of choosing not good or evil but the lesser of two evils, and so that had unhinged them and now each was a man.
Very cool excerpt. Made me think of the witcher quote about lesser evil:
Evil is Evil. Lesser, greater, middling… Makes no difference. The degree is arbitary. The definition’s blurred. If I’m to choose between one evil and another… I’d rather not choose at all.
Galactic Pot-Healer by Philip K. Dick.
