Seemed like the same argument going on too long. Probably would have been better if I could stay focused on it!

Okay I believe Nancy recommended this . .here I go . 5-17-07--i had to stop reading this dense treatise on life in 12th century England on pg 170 .. ugh it was too much. . I hate books like this where the story is buried in the author's research into life in another century. It's interesting to point then NOT.

I can't remember this book. I read this book a long time ago and do not really remember it. I don’t know what else to say about it besides that I recommend it to kids 9 and up (Maybe older depends on the kid) and that everyone should read it. I may not remember this book to well but I know I did enjoy reading it.
Only read a couple chapters so far, but it gives a very important perspective on how some people experience life and identity. A lot of the stories made me really sad, but they are important to tell. A good but sad glimpse of what my future kids will probably experience.
This is by far one of the BEST books I've ever read - the last 50 pages were like riding a rollercoaster in the dark....twists and turns I didn't see coming. The author knows exactly how to stay on task of telling this true story - without ever falling into boredom or going too far into the sickening details. Wow! What a ride!

The main character is a simile. She represents an idea that otherwise would not exist in an alien language. And that’s just what comes out in the opening pages. Sure, the idea that language defines the world we understand is no groundbreaking notion, but Mieville takes that idea a step further. Language becomes not a means simply to reference ideas, it is a way to experience. Fortunately, Mieveille is an exceptional writer and he makes this idea sound much less pretentious than I just did. Embassytown‘s plot is brilliant and original. This is science fiction world building without the recycled ideas and images of the past. There is nothing cliché about his writing. Character development seems to take second place to plot, but when you have an amazing plot, you don’t mind so much. Mieville molds a world, a cast and a story around the intoxication of, and by, language. Mieville’s books are enthralling. His command of language- the English language- combined with original motifs and storylines ensnare you. I am always left thinking about his books for days and weeks afterward and Embassytown is no exception.

I got about halfway through this book and gave up. I didn't like the characters and the story was not going anywhere.

One of my favorite books, by one of my favorite authors. Waltzing the Cat is a collection of short stories. The stories follow one character, Lucy. They can be read indiviually or together. I loved piecing together the pieces of Lucy's life as I read each story. I read this book over and over again. Lucy is a great character who has a lot to learn about life and relationships. My favorite stories were "Then you get up and have breakfast." and the title story, "Waltzing the Cat."
