Dec. 29th, 2008 03:26 pmThe last three books I've read all featured a floating city built out of boats lashed together.
To be fair, I haven't read much science fiction lately. Did floating cities suddenly get to be a major trope while I wasn't looking?

You know those movies where people just wake up one day and the world is completely deserted? They walk through echoing streets trying to figure out where everybody is, but the only other living beings are pigeons and the occasional rat scurrying through an alley?
Travelling to work at 6 AM today felt a lot like that. Except the subways were still running.
