cereusAnd then at odd moments she would see in her mind's eye the black dunes, the white ice, the silhouetted figures against a sunset sky. She would shiver and come to with a sigh. Ann had already arranged another trip and was gone, this time south to the northernmost arms of great Valles Marineris, to see more unimaginable marvels...
Maya complained about how much Ann was away. "It's clear that she and Simon have started something and are just out there having a honeymoon while we slave away in here." That was Maya's way of looking at things, that would be what it would take to make Maya as happy as Ann sounded in her calls. But Ann was in the canyons - and that was all that was needed to make her sound that way...
This is one quote I really like from Red Mars - I might add more to this same post as I write them up, or give them their own post, whichever is less confusing.
Red Mars is a novel about the first 100 colonists on Mars and how they interact with it and how Mars changes them. And how they get along with eachother. And then there's environmentalism, and politics, and a mystery... It's a very "big" book for the number of pages it has. :)
I really love and respect Ann Clayborne and her love for Mars.
