(Nebula Award Nominee: 1975)

Just too disjointed for me to connect with the characters. Ms. Russ is clearly very intelligent, and she writes some very funny dialogue and situations. However, the sporadic nature of the narrative coupled with the constant jumping between protagonists and settings left me more confused than entertained. I'm glad I read this book, but I am unlikely to ever read it again.
