I see.. So the whole thing was a metaphor.
The S.T.A.L.K.E.R.s(shadows of Chernobyl) were like a penis and the Anomalies were like a vagina and then the penis fucked the vagina.

Its good. Harsher than the movie actually, more akin to more normalish sci fi.

>> No.19267266

>>19266216
yes, one of the best sci fi novels. never read tales of the troika though

>> No.19267295

moments like that dream of his child calling him make literature worth reading
