Absolutely devoured this weird little sci-fi novel(la?) that satires work culture while examining broader philosophical questions about humanity, life and death.
Through a series of staff reports from the crew of an interstellar ship, composed of humans and humanoids, we see how the discovery of weird objects on a remote planet will affect them. 

Sometimes confusing, sometimes not delving enough, it  reminded me of a crossover between The Office, Blade Runner and 2001 Space Odyssey. Definitely an interesting quirky little book to read in one setting.
