Please let us know if you're reading, planning to read or have read The Einstein Intersection by Samuel R. Delany.

No spoilers in this topic please!

Jon (jonmoss) I am not planning to re-read this one as I've got too much on my plate this month already.

Maggie K | 298 comments I am finding it very interesting! I can tell this is the type of book where you can do multiple re-reads and pick up a little more each time...

andrea (mellowtrouble) planning to read this this week!

Candiss (tantara) | 1207 comments I read this earlier in the year and enjoyed it. I'll be around for the discussion.


message 6: by Jim (new)

Jim (jimmaclachlan) It's been a while since I last read it & it is a short book, so I plan to read it again very soon.


message 7: by Nick (new)

Nick (doily) | 1011 comments Because it is short and it is, perhaps, on my personal "Top 20" I will be re-reading it very soon.


message 8: by andrea (new)

andrea (mellowtrouble) started it last night, about half way through, and though it was a bit confusing at first, i'm really enjoying it - i love some humor in my reading, and this one has got it, but mostly loving it because the world is fascinating and fairly regularly there are just these beautiful beautiful phrases and imagery. so glad to be reading this!


message 9: by Jim (new)

Jim Mcclanahan (clovis-man) | 485 comments Read it some time ago. I donated my copy to Friends of the Library. But since nobody has bought it, I bought it again. I will participate in the discussion.


message 10: by Random (new)

Random (rand0m1s) | 1252 comments The book sounds like it would be just up my alley, but I'm having a horrible time getting started. I'll keep trying and hope to get into the discussion a little later.


message 11: by Jim (new)

Jim (jimmaclachlan) I'm almost done. I agree with Theresa - very strange & intriguing.

mark monday (majestic-plural) | 116 comments my first impression was off-putting. i couldn't get into it. i think it may have just felt too obscure for my mood at the time. but i stepped back, took a deep breath, put my big-boy pants on, and tried again. i'm really glad i did, because it turned out to be an awesome experience. great book!
