In Bellis's imaguinings of a ruined new Cruzobon, i cannot help thinking of how the citizens of cities like Dresden and Nagasaki and Hiroshima probably never could imagine in advance the utter ruin their cities faced.

The seasons were only points of view—matters of perspective. When it was winter in New Crobuzon, it was summer in Bered Kai Nev (so they said), though they shared the days and nights that grew long and short in antiphase. Dawn was dawn all across the world. That's very interesting- if dawn was dawn all over the world, then it's a flat world we're looking at here.
