Alexander Jablokov Libri

    Alexander Jablokov scrive fantascienza per lettori che non rinunciano alla scrittura colta o a personaggi vividi per ottenere i brividi che desiderano. Rappresenta una transizione naturale per i lettori non appassionati di fantascienza interessati a una passeggiata con un'IA pericolosa o un neurochirurgo/musicista jazz diventato detective, offrendo al contempo ai fan accaniti di fantascienza lampi speculativi, alieni incomprensibili ed elettrodomestici con scatole alari di insetti. Il suo lavoro spazia dall'intelligence interplanetaria in complesse società future alle bizzarre space opera.

      "Darkly suave competence" is how The Encyclopedia of Science Fiction refers to Jablokov's first novel, Carve the Sky, and the phrase could easily apply to many of the stories in this, Jablokov's first short story collection. Ranging from time travel to artificial intelligence, Jablokov covers a lot of ground in the ten stories here, although readers will quickly notice recurring themes both of art and self-identity amidst colorful, retro-decadent future worlds. Although his technique and consistency vary, Jablokov shows with his powerful, dynamic prose that he's a writer worth watching.Contents:The Breath of Suspension (1991)Living Will (1991)Many Mansions (1988)The Death Artist (1990)At the Cross-Time Jaunters' Ball (1987)Above Ancient Seas (1992)Deathbinder (1988)The Ring of Memory (1989)Beneath the Shadow of Her Smile (1985)A Deeper Sea (1989)
