Historia4 out of 5 stars 77
At the age of 13, Pella Marsh emigrates with her family to the Planet of the Archbuilders. These enigmatic aborigines have names like Lonely Dumptruck and Hiding Kneel, and a civilization that baffles and frightens their human visitors. As the spikily independent Pella becomes an uneasy envoy between two species, Girl in Landscape deftly interweaves themes of exploration and otherness, loss, and sexual awakening.

Wonderful novel, horrendous audio book
Revisado: 03-13-18
The chapters on the audio book don’t even remotely match the chapters from the print edition. There are six chapters on the audio version but 21 in the actual book... I like to listen on my commute and then read the print version at home, which is impossible considering the way they butchered this audio book. There is also this strange music that plays in between chapters that inexplicably continues to play during certain sections of the novel which really ruins it for me. Do yourself a favor and read this lovely book, just avoid the audio book at all costs.

A highly acclaimed author, M. John Harrison is well known for his reality-bending tales. In this sci-fi noir, the physics-defying Saudade Event Site is a place to find strange landscapes and seemingly impossible physical phenomena - perfect for tourism. Into this environment comes Vic Serotonin, a "travel agent" whose newest client is a mysterious woman with a hidden agenda.

Not a well produced audio book.
Revisado: 02-15-18
The chapters don’t match the actual chapters from the book. It takes forever to find the chapters as printed in the physical book. I was reading the book in print and hope my to listen to the book as I drove/worked. Didn’t work out. The voice acting is trash and there are inexplicable pauses, 10 seconds or so, in the middle of chapters. It’s a good book but you’d be better if finding a paperback than fighting through this garbage.
