2004 Anchor trade paperback of the 2003 futuristic tale of a lonely survivor missing his best friend Crake and their common love Oryx, in a post-plague great city turned wildness after uncontrolled corporate genetic engineering. This was on my list of best modern books to read when I found this good condition copy this week in the Joaquin Little Free Library in San Leandro.
I can let this go after I read:
1964 The War in the Bathroom (short story) [read 2018]
1972 Surfacing [read 2024]

Edit May 8, 2024: This was good, but I just skimmed to end for time. It runs a bit long. I currently have this ranked at #3599 on my ranked list of best-read books lately.
