It's mentioned that the Owls were the first to die - dropping out of the sky and at first it was seen as humorous, but then worrisome. Owls symbolize wisdom, so the owls dropping dead means the loss of wisdom? And my co-host mentioned how she found the Ostrich being this prized, valuable bird to be surprising as it is a flightless bird and I think about how when the ostrich is in danger, he (or she) buries his (or her) head so as not to face it....there has also been a lot of mention of chicken heads in this novel so far too. Why all the bird symbolism!?! I am super excited to discuss this novel tomorrow night. So I better hurry up and finish it.

I haven't read it (but I should). Blade Runner is really good.
