Delightful first contact story; feels like it's set among the aftermath of the New York Communes. Complex, high-stakes plot nuances about baby wearing, gender complexity and expression, neurodiversity. Critical plot developments happen around Seder. Lots of love for every kind of neurodiverse nerd.

Looking forward to the next book in Long London
