Bizarre. Imaginative. ( ) as somebody who is slowly dipping her toes in sci-fi books, this was fine. not great, but i did enjoy it. this started off very confusing for me and therefore i had a hard time focusing because i hate feeling dumb. then i got VERY interested in the story and had trouble putting the book down and was extremely enthused about the idea of what i thought was a plot twist - got disappointed by the realization that it was not... BUT i got very into the plot of the story and it was enjoyable. other thoughts.. i like Philip K. Dick's voice very much - the way he writes is fantastic. i just wish the first few chapters of the book were just a little longer so i didn't feel like i was missing something and feel like i was playing catch up Lovely dismal atmosphere, charmingly imperfect characters, but just not enough. It didn’t raise enough doubt for me. It didn’t stir my spirit enough. I guess it’s just because I don’t find it important to ask “What makes us human?” Why should we care about who/what is human/not? What makes humans so elite? It’s because we think we rule the world, when really we only have the ILLUSION of control. (/rant) But I guess the book leading me to this observation is just as important. I am disappointed. I had higher expectations of this book, and it had some good aspects, but from an older SF book, I had hoped for less vagueness. It seemed almost philosophical to me, which would not have been a bad thing, if it was going somewhere, but this whole Mercerism business was dissatisfying to me. I felt that the actual philosophical question of what makes us human was underdeveloped, and that the other philosophical parts were unclear.

HTML:A masterpiece ahead of its time, a prescient rendering of a dark future, and the inspiration for the blockbuster film Blade Runner By 2021, the World War has killed millions, driving entire species into extinction and sending mankind off-planet. Those who remain covet any living creature, and for people who cant afford one, companies built incredibly realistic simulacra: horses, birds, cats, sheep. Theyve even built humans. Immigrants to Mars receive androids so sophisticated they are indistinguishable from true men or women. Fearful of the havoc these artificial humans can wreak, the government bans them from Earth. Driven into hiding, unauthorized androids live among human beings, undetected. Rick Deckard, an officially sanctioned bounty hunter, is commissioned to find rogue androids and retire them. But when cornered, androids fight backwith lethal force. Praise for Philip K. Dick The most... Não foram encontradas descrições de bibliotecas. |
