Just started reading this book after seeing it recommended everywhere. I think it's a trilogy.
But I noticed something weird. 15 chapters in and there's no women, not even a waitress at a restaurant or the mention of some guy's wife.
WTF?
Then I looked up the publish date, 1951.
Things were different back then.
Lots of stuff stolen from "Foundation" wound up in other books, movies, etc. The "hive city" is one of them.
Very good, even if it's 70+ years old.
