The Greatest Empire That Never Was

Kalpa Imperial

Anga(c)Lica Gorodischer

A novel of linked tales tells the story of an imaginary civilization from its origins as a collection of hunter-gatherer tribes to its zenith as a sophisticated technological empire.

I understand what would motivate someone to write a book like this, and I understand the themes and the type of commentary Gorodischer is developing, and I even understand why Le Guin chose to translate it, but honestly I was so bored the whole time.

Cody Degen

i've realized that as much as i like the idea of a novel where the anthropology of a culture is the hook I really struggle without a cohesive central plot or character to have it all filtered through or a level of stakes that raises the excitement level. Still appreciate it though and it's got some fucking bars in it for sure
