If James Michener wrote a book about space…
1By Sabrina AlfinI always hated Michener’s books for being overly descriptive, to the point of letting the minutiae overtake the plot. The same goes for this book which is both overly detailed and plotless. This is less a novel than a meditation. There is almost zero interaction between the characters—instead each astronaut has an internal struggle that space may or may not be able to help them resolve. Thank god this was a short book. At least I didn’t feel I wasted too much of my time.What a gem
5By Adi310Never seen before perspective, thought provoking and brilliantOrbital
5By Eva PalomaresUn libro muy interesante, lleno de filosofía y de ideas sociopolíticas, un poco entre el ensayo y la novela, entre lo científico y la ficción. Entre órbita y órbita, ascendiendo o descendiendo siempre muy interesante el problema de la soledad estando en compañía, la lejanía que te hace estar más cerca. La romántica luna, que no es de queso y a donde, como meta final se llega.Orbital

5By NightmardyAs I was reading this stunning love story to the earth on my iPad, alarming notices of yet another school shooting only 10 miles from my home kept dropping on my screen. Humanity indeed. Where are we going?Well written,yes, but…
2By juliusaSometimes dreamily ethereal and has feelings that go deep, but…. The point is? Not quite sure. Seems completely unrealistic and grasping at something. So yes a beautiful read but for many may be with little purpose.Imagination and imagery
4By wynbeeBeautifully written and deeply thought provoking story on a unique topic. Flowing imagery makes the space journey so realistic. Has a good shot for the Prize, but may have had one orbit too many.
