Verdict: Zendegi has some cute ideas, but is rather slight overall.
Reasons for reading it: I'm sometimes in the mood for Egan's very ideas-heavy, well-researched hard SF. Plus
jack said positive things about it, and I was interested in the near future Iran setting.
How it came into my hands: Library.
