I finished it just now and thought it was really interesting. I'd be interested to hear people's interpretation of the ending.

Loved it, very funny, yet profound at the same time. It won the most prestigious book award in France (Goncourt), which is really a first for a SciFi book.

What was your interpretation of the very end? Maybe use the spoiler markup.

I've not read it, but just looked at the synopsis on Wikipedia. I'm definitely putting this in my ToRead list. Thanks for the recommendation

Let us know what you think. I thought it was a great book. I'd love to discuss the ending though.
