I loved your review, however this book gave me very different things. Why they were there, where they were, what happened - these are practical facts. For me, what was more interesting was how hope manifests in a group, how building a village is motivating and when the task is done how direction dips, how people want to avoid pain in dying, group dynamics, the person who died because of the lack of desire to live, what the point of life is. I see it as a nihilistic treatise, with a lot in relation to what is life, what is death, what is purpose. I’d like to see what it tells us about maintaining human existence when it is stripped bare, and what that tells us. Oh, and by the way, later on, there ARE insects, and wild flowers. Suggesting over the years, the ecostructure maybe was repairing?
