Reviews for Sagramanda
15 ratings2 reviews
- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5A fascinating description of the future in India - morally pessimistic.
- Rating: 2 out of 5 stars2/5What I liked about Sagramanda were the tech ideas and the story idea. Alan Dean Foster chose a future India that still has many of the old ways and smells but with advancements that increase the split between the haves and havenots. What I didn't like was that it sometimes felt formulaic...like the old-time Bollywood films where you know they aren't going to kiss no matter how close and wet and romantic they seem to be getting. I might not know exactly what was going to happen but I knew what wasn't going to happen.
