ANIMALS
So what do you all think of that book so far? It took me a minute or two to get used to the "interjections" by the author, but this book is growing on me for sure. I find it really interesting that lePan personifies Sam in such a way that it really makes him seem human... this totally gives a different perspective of "pet" as opposed to what we are used to.

this question of what is human is an important one... in fact, i read Sam as human (at least how we would classify such a creature today). but in the future world of lepan's text, this is not so easy a classification to make... particularly when we start eating such creatures. (and, i suspect, it never is/was/will be easy.)
