The Man-Apes and the New Sun (Re: Environental Impacts)
1 quoted line
The Man Apes are in an environment laced with mutagenic substances (radiation, toxic wastes, etc.) and they never get to see the sun.<
This is why I particularly enjoy Dan Maitz's cover painting for Claw, in which the zoanthrops are blinded by the light of Severian's Claw. This ties in with a remark made by Dorcas, something along the lines of "People are always saying that when the New Sun comes, he will be too bright to look at."
