I don’t think that is necessarily the best way to read it – I wish I had read it on a Sunday afternoon or something, when I could have given it the attention it requires and deserves. Firstly it is a novella short enough to be read in one sitting – however, I was very tired, at work during the day, and so only manged to read this is three shortish bursts over three evenings. I am well aware how mood and timing can affect my reading – and I wasn’t in the best of moods when I read this. It’s an extremely short novella, though one that packs a punch – and I was enormously impressed with the writing, and how thought provoking it is, especially given its size. Reviewing just a little out of order now, not that it matters, I read Assembly with my book group before I read the last two books I reviewed for the 1954 club.
