A Psalm for the Wild-Built by Becky Chambers
4.0
4.5 stars.
I am not the first person to say how cozy this book is, but I really enjoyed the philosophy of the book as well. It’s really interesting that humans like Dex are still searching for meaning in a post-industrial, post-capitalist society, but the robots (described to be tools of industrialism that transcended the search for meaning) and instead have found a kind of transcendalist beauty in observing nature.
