The Lightning Stenography Device by M.F. Sullivan
My rating: 3 of 5 stars
Well, that was a trip. And if it wasn’t interesting in some places, making me think about some ideas expressed, I’d say it was hours I’d never get back.
I want to thank NetGalley for letting me read this one. It was worth the thoughts.
The idea of a machine that could write for you without spell check and fumbling fingers seemed unique, until I realized that the paralyzed people already had that kind of thinking machine.
The Lightning Stenography Device, shortens to LSD. Drug use is implied often. And that kind of lucid writing, as if from an impaired writer, rambles forth. Many deep philosophical views are turned into sagas of gods and angst.
Mostly, this felt like an anthology of short stories tied loosely together. Just not my kind of book.
