Cyberpunk is one of those subgenres that feels more and more accurate these days. I don’t know if that’s good or bad. Depends on my mood towards the world at the time. But this is a good collection. My favorites were “The Dog Said Bow Wow” and “The Voluntary State.” YMMV. ( ) Honestly, I didn't enjoy this as much as I wanted to. I don't know if the editor was going for a literary analysis or something, but the reprinted letters got tedious and unread almost immediately.

New or old, these stories seemed to follow some hidden gradient, towards greater concentrations of heart and humanism. ContémPrêmios
Cyberpunk is dead. The revolution has been co-opted by half-assed heroes, overclocked CGI, and tricked-out shades. Once radical, cyberpunk is now nothing more than a brand. Time to stop flipping the channel. These sixteen extreme stories reveal a government ninja routed by a bicycle repairman, the inventor of digitized paper hijacked by his college crush, a dead boy trapped in a warped storybook paradise, and the queen of England attacked with the deadliest of forbidden technology: a working modem. You'll meet Manfred Macx, renegade meme-broker, Red Sonja, virtual reality sex-goddess, and Felix, humble sys-admin and post-apocalyptic hero. Editors James Patrick Kelly and John Kessel (Feeling Very Strange: The Slipstream Anthology) have united cyberpunk visionaries William Gibson, Bruce Sterling, and Pat Cadigan with the new post-cyberpunk vanguard, including Cory Doctorow, Charles Stross, and Jonathan Lethem. Including a canon-establishing introduction and excerpts from a hotly contested online debate, Rewired is the first anthology to define and capture the crackling excitement of the post-cyberpunks. From the grittiness of Mirrorshades to the Singularity and beyond, it's time to revive the revolution. Não foram encontradas descrições de bibliotecas. |
