โœฆ Synopsis


Epub

A beautiful girl is discovered naked near a
mental hospital, she speaks a language no one understands and she quickly
becomes an obsession to one of the psychiatrists there.

The plot
seems to be about P.F. the psychiatrist having to question everything he knows
to be real as his undeniably intelligent patient slowly reveals herself to be
neither insane nor from this time. By today's standards he is most definitely a
loony himself and I'm inclined to read this as a descent into madness as the
patient is revealed to be ultimately sane and her therapist a man with serious
reality problems that culminate in crisis. Or it was written in 1969 and P.F. is
supposed to be a normal man driven to the brink by an insane contradiction

"Brunner was a giant of sf, dealing at his best with lived-in futures combining extrapolative exhilaration & the nightmare of future shock. 'Stand on Zanzibar' ('68) with its focus on overpopulation was his recognized blockbuster. It slightly overshadows its companion volumes 'The Jagged Orbit' ('69
