The Etched City by KJ Bishop
55% in and I'm not quite sure what the plot is really. It's Gwynn and Raule, whom aren't really even having anything to do with each other and both are just living. No particular goal in mind. No particular task that must be accomplished. Gwynn is just enjoying life. Works for the slave trade, enjoying his gf, the red haired painter. Raule is an underpaid doctor, takes care of the poor in this brutal city.
I like it though. Like the detail. I wouldn't mind at all though if it started actually going somewhere in particular instead of seeming so random. I suppose the lack of a plot and all the detail makes it really decadent, which is good. I guess you could say it's a real, the world is over, hooray! kind of book.
