Paracyclops<p>I found Cixin Liu's 'Death's End' gripping, but also disappointing. It's full of brilliant SF inventiveness, but it's politically/philosophically simplistic, and it has a bizarrely essentialist approach to gender.</p><p><a href="https://www.goodreads.com/review/show/6678240475" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://www.</span><span class="ellipsis">goodreads.com/review/show/6678</span><span class="invisible">240475</span></a></p><p><a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/sf" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>sf</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/sciencefiction" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>sciencefiction</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/hardsf" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>hardsf</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/cixinliu" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>cixinliu</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/liucixin" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>liucixin</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/deathsend" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>deathsend</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/remembranceofearthspast" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>remembranceofearthspast</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/thethreebodyproblem" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>thethreebodyproblem</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/thedarkforest" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>thedarkforest</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/books" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>books</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/bookstodon" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>bookstodon</span></a> <span class="h-card" translate="no"><a href="https://a.gup.pe/u/bookstodon" class="u-url mention" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">@<span>bookstodon</span></a></span></p>
