Viac o knihe

From the Back cover: The First novel in a mesmerizing brilliant SF diptych. The only survivor plucked from a world where life has been burned out from horizon to horizon. Rat Korga is a very unusual human. On his own world he was subjected to Radical Anxiety Termination-a synapse-jamming technique banned on many planets. Now the officials of the web must find a new world for him. Their first choice is the planet Velm: a world on which humans coexist uneasily with the trisaurian evelmi- and also the world of Marq Dyeth, for whom Korga is calculated to be the perfect erotic objected, to about seven decimal places... Stars in My Pocket Like Grains of Sand is a stunning, many-layered speculation on the future of humanity, on the interactions between brilliantly imaged alien cultures, on love and sex, on religion and politics. It is a masterful work. Writer's Note: Stars in My Pocket like Grains of Sand is the first novel in an SF diptych. The second novel in the diptych is The Splender and Misery of Bodies, of Cities. - Samuel R. Delany Misc info: Original Price: £2.95 Binding: pb Cover: Mark Salwowski OCLC 154039188
