Finishing "Oryx and Crake"

I finished "Oryx and Crake" today. Kind of wooly and symbolic and not easy to summarize. Atwood's future world and its open ended ending sets thoughts in motion that are not easy to categorize. Masterfully written...a bit slow in the beginning...but the dialogue picks up. The thinly veiled "Crake" is unlikeable, which I believe is intentional on the author's part. Jimmy is the conscious of the book and ourselves as we deal with the connundrum's of technology and progress. I'm usually not a fan of such genre's but this is something that kept my attention through the long haul.
