A very weird book. It's a lyrical sf/f of the sort with nanotech and also magic, wildly imaginative and strange. On the one hand it's a fable set in a jungle city in post climate change US where birds are illegal after an avian-spread plague, but a woman who can bring her drawings to life starts drawing them while she waits for her lover to come back. On the other, it's a SF about virtual reality and corporate conspiracy. The two halves fit in a dreamlike way, along with the beginnings of a new love affair.
I remain mostly baffled tbh, but also haunted by a lot of the imagery, not least of this jungle city protected by an electric net to kill the birdsas it turns out, to conceal that the corporation was responsible for the plague and not birds at all , and inevitably being consumed by vast, horrific numbers of uneaten insects. A strange read.
