The Other Side of Nowhere by Murray Leinster
Requirements: Epub reader, 233 Kb
Overview: Leinster in this novel portrays interstellar travel in the far future as a dreadful experience. Space ship crew members are crude brutes who never ship out on the same vessel twice because they routinely grow to hate each other over the course of a single voyage. It is against the law to bring weapons on a space ship, but most crew members and officers carry a blaster or a knife to defend themselves from each other. Leinster repeatedly describes conditions in a space ship as being like a prison, and the design of a space ship as not streamlined, but bulbous and ungraceful. During an interstellar voyage the officers and crew have little to do because the ship basically flies itself, and spacemen do not love a space ship the way sailors traditionally love their boats and ships, perhaps Leinster’s commentary on the psychological cost of our automated, mechanized society.
