We don't know if Vanja has improved things or made them worse. Are the "Anna" people in real form or are they "aliens"? Are the people of Amatka being possessed or inhabited by these alien beings? The use of words to label everything reminds me of a teacher I knew in High School told us he was going to teach his child that a cup was called a "frog." Would it have mattered to the child? Probably not until he was old enough to enter society solo and be told by others that a cup was definitely not a frog. Vanja chose to leave a more progressive society to stay in Amatka. The details have faded as life as been busy. :) I wrote the following immediately after I read the novel which has been a couple of weeks now. Life is too short to spend time reading books I don't enjoy. I enjoyed reading this novel very much, otherwise I wouldn't have finished reading it.
