I read this for my IRL book group and the best comment I've read on it is "it's a great 70s sf novel". Mind you, if it were written back then it'd be tighter and probably more imaginative.

"The dole" is also British, and has been used since the 20s, I think.

Milkfred E. Moore posted:Holden and Naomi have a talk. Naomi hasn't had a lover for over a year and she wants it to be exclusive until it isn't and it ends. No hard feelings if Holden ends it, providing he lets her know in advance. If it's more than sex, Naomi's open to that. She also has eggs in storage, which I guess paints Holden's sperm in storage as being just something space travelers do? I guess it makes sense, what with the radiation and all. Astronauts freezing their sperm/eggs happens in quite a few sf novels, for obvious reasons, although off the top of my head the only one I can remember is the Night's Dawn books.
