Reasonably interesting coverage about the ill fated ANC-Halfords team, but not a huge amount of depth.
A very sparse and intriguing writing style had me curiously captivated. At the end of many of the stories I was by surprised by the brevity of the endings, yet not annoyed since the whole story had been strange and curious.
Atwood's credentials as a writer of style and substance show through. A recounting of an apocalyptic future as seen from an individual perspective. Not burdened down my lots of detail about the actual details of the event, instead choosing to create a mood and perspective that seems all too real.
