Futuro à venda...

Aliens
Something else happens when a boy hits puberty. He starts to notice that the girls he grew up around have become strange entities. Obsessively fascinating, yet remote. Desirable, yet unattainable. Creatures with their own agendas, that do not coincide with his. How do you negotiate a rapprochement? How do you acquire and develop an entirely new set of relational skills? Is it any wonder that this obsessive concern of the adolescent male should be metaphorically dealt with time after time in our generation's imaginative literature? (A disturbing recent trend has been the loss of sublimation. Much new s.f. is frankly pornographic.)
Tom Smedley diz-nos o quanto a ficção científica nos pode ajudar a dar forma ao futuro alimentando-se da nossa imaginação.
