"DELL" By Lama Milkweed L. Augustine PhD;
This book was a narrative told in a manner unlike anything I had priorly seen whenever regarding science fiction of this nature. It starts out with a preface in two parts that depthfully explains what has happened to our earth in so many words, but in the process she comes to expiate an accidental lifeform known as the "computer" people-something purely from out of the author's brilliant and child-like imagination. Only going on to describing a loving "computer' gentleman like it was perfectly rational and normal, taking place in California's famous "Silicon Valley."
The child's relationship with his paret, they obviously did not have sex as only males were a part of this race of gentle people in the author's imagination, certainly poses as the fixation for this sick child who is cursed with the scourge of his people, which is a fatal nonremovible virus that causes many different medical and "electronic' changes within them, those who are born this way. The structure of a family is certainly well described and taken to new heights as another brother is soon born, one called 'Verizon,' but is otherwise normal origin and has no fatal virus. Many interesting exploits take their place, but as this long story filled with many scenes of festering emotions of varying reasons and ovations of events come forth. The child known simply as "Dell" 0043867, as they are given last names in the form of numbers; these living computers.
The child eventually dies, as he succumbs to his fatal nonremovable virus, but in the process of this streinuous existance of his, he unknowingly touched the entire world with his suffering, which was supposed to be somewhat facing the direction of our Lord and Savior's glorious life, death, and resurrection. "Silicon Valley" soon became a new Mecca for people looking for a spiritual cure. Helplessness was the key amidst this powerful tale of a different kind of sci fi. I never read anything quite like it. It WAS VERY EINTERESTING! It is such a tragedy more people are not reading it- or at least reviewing this really cool book.
DELL by Lama Milkweed was really a page turner, but one with a different kind of heart-poised in the framework of where helplessness poses as the manner of gaining worldwide acclaim and loving reporach.
What an interesting concept.
