I thought the readers were fantastic and really brought the stories to life. I do agree about the songs, though! They felt all wrong to me, and eventually I started skipping them altogether. I think you hit the nail on the head with regard to why they felt wrong…thanks for sharing your thoughtful analysis!

I agree with everything you said, right down to the music (what were they thinking?) Almost any time I hear of environmental disasters, I think of Oryx and Crake and this title. In spite of the music, it was a good listen.
