|
In her debut collection, Maureen F. McHugh examines the impacts of social and |
|
technological shifts on families. Using deceptively simple prose, she |
|
illuminates the relationship between parents and children and the expected and |
|
unexpected chasms that open between generations.</p> |

|
<p>I now there are stories with a hidden subject, like "Arrival", in which the |
|
fact that understanding how the alien language works allow humans to break the |
|
barriers of time, and one could expect that stories with no eminent subject |
|
actually have a hidden one.</p> |
|
<p>But I feel that doesn't happen here.</p> |
|
<p>There are just... stories. And, sad to say, they are not even good.</p> |
|
<p>There are points that never lead to anywhere, and doesn't seem related to the |
|
main history; most of them end with no conclusion at all (will the clone die? |
|
What will happen to the daredevil? Do the husband got cured from Alzheimer and |
|
would he still be in love with his wife?)</p> |
