William Gibson, Please Come Home

摘要

Nothing is more devastating than infidelity. It shatters families. It robs children of their sense of security and normalcy. It tears the moral fabric of society itself. And when I say infidelity, I am of course referring to the inexplicable desire of writers like William Gibson and Neal Stephen-son to break their sacred bond with science fiction. These genre greats used to write love letters to the 22nd century, creating characters who jacked into the hyperweb to do battle with artificial intelligences and ultraviruses. Seductive stuff for protonerds.
