Forgotten Country: Three-Sentence Book Review

The Forgotten Country, by Catherine Chung
I could tell this author's ambitions, but she didn't quite get there.  She wanted an ethnocentric and -specific story, but wrote a story that can apply to anyone, anywhere; she wanted dynamic characters, but wrote flat ones; she wanted to mix the ideas of math and philosophy, but just wrote about math and philosophy.  Enjoyable, but not a must-read.
