Tanith Lee Silver Metal Lover
DAW 1982 0879977213 / 9780879977214 Paperback Good
0879977213 Amazon.com Review The Silver Metal Lover is a classic tale of transforming love. It's a keeper, a book that gets reread 'til it falls apart. Fans petitioned to get it reprinted, and after 10 years of waiting, here it is. Oddly, the book is seldom mentioned when Tanith Lee's work is discussed, perhaps because Lee's usual milieu is horror, and The Silver Metal Lover is a poignant romance requiring at least two hankies before the end. Robots have replaced human labor on earth, causing massive unemployment in a world devastated by pollution and natural disasters. Then Electronic Metals releases a new line: performing artists and sexual companions designed to entertain human partners. Jane, a rich, lonely, and insecure 16-year-old, meets one, the minstrel Silver, and falls passionately in love, despite revulsion at the idea of preferring a mechanical man to a human. She gives up everything she has known for him, and discovers herself. Silver becomes more and more "human" in loving her--a clever illusion created by his programming. Or is it? This unstable society can't afford any evidence that some robots might be indistinguishable from humans. Tragedy is inevitable. Read it and weep--and don't forget to put it on the keeper shelf. --Nona Vero --This text refers to the Mass Market Paperback edition. Review Praise for The Silver Metal Lover: "Deftly written, moving, funny, totally convincing...this is quite simply the best sci-fi romance I've read in ages." --Daily News, New York "Tanith Lee has another winner in The Silver Metal Lover. It's an aluminum souffl?é that's both amusing and touching." --Asimov's Science Fiction "The strengths of [The Silver Metal Lover] lie in the vivid vision of [Lee's] world--exotic and a little frightening, but quite believable....One of Lee's most fully realized creations." --Publishers Weekly "Lee continues to distinguish herself with her ability to bring flesh and blood to the worlds of the future. For those who like emotion and feeling in their SF, The Silver Metal Lover is highly recommended." --Science Fiction and Fantasy Book Review --This text refers to the Mass Market Paperback edition.
