The book made a LOT more sense and a few years later I started reading all Cherryh's books - mostly in order.
I was reading English books mostly in English at that point so I figured I should try Cherryh again - with reading Cyteen and then its sequel. Then in 2008, 20 years after this book was initially published, a direct sequel was announced for early 2009. But that bad translation (and the even weirder decisions made when a previous novel was published) made it impossible for the author to get published in Bulgarian again so I kinda forgot about her.
weird (and I could not understand how this can win a Hugo). It was the first novel by Cherryh that I read - about 20 years ago, in Bulgarian, in a botched translation that randomly removed parts of the story including the end of the novel (considering that there is a murder mystery in the book, removing the end was particularly bad but considering all the other removed parts, even if they had left it in, it probably would not have made sense). I have a complicated history with Cyteen.
