"Catchy Title, Empty Pages: A Disappointment Wrapped in Literary Pretense

Do Androids Dream of Electric Sheep?:
"Interesting Mood
There is a feeling of inescapable melancholy in this book that is hard to shake off. As for the story itself, I disliked many aspects of it. Much fuss is being made of the androids not having empathy. And yet the hero, Rick Deckard, se" Read more of this review » |

quote
“The night had teeth. Wind tore through the apple trees, their skeletal branches clawing at the sky. Beyond the garden fence, the dacha settlement lay in uneasy slumber—rows of dark shacks, abandoned for the season, their windows blind and cold.
Chicken-wire fences sagged under rust and neglect, some topped with barbed wire that glinted like fangs in the distant glow of Moscow. Far off, a cement plant loomed against the horizon, a hulking silhouette of Soviet ambition gone to rot. To the north, the pines of Elk Island groaned under the gale, their black crowns thrashing like beasts in chains. And above it all, the October sky churned with torn clouds, racing toward some unseen war. I walked two hundred yards down the gravel drive, past sleeping plots fenced in rusted wire, boots rasping over dry, dead grass. Tested the radio. Exchanged a few words with Romeo. Static hissed like a snake in the dark, but the signal held.” R. Magnusholm |

quote
“Her eyes shifted to the weapon on the table. “May I hold it?”
“Sure, why not?” I unholstered the pistol and handed it to her, holding it by the barrel assembly. She held the gun awkwardly, angling it past me toward the stove, the muzzle’s black eye dark as a tunnel to another world. “You can kill me, you know,” I said. “Like in that French movie we saw.” She didn’t seem to hear me. When she spoke, her voice was thick and remote. “It’s so heavy. I didn’t know it would be so heavy.” The air felt charged with static, the kind that comes before lightning.” R. Magnusholm |
