What’s Become of Screwloose? And Other Enquiries (1971) SSC by Ron Goulart (ed. Jim3692)
Requirements: ePUB reader, 2.5Mb
Overview: In a world where all-too-fleshy Man can be bitten by mechanical dogs, pursued by neurotic autos, attacked by berserk washing machines and cuckolded by possessive houses, there had better be a keen eye and clear voice present to ask the right questions and report the goings on. As these ten stories prove, Ron Goulart is well up to the task of tracer of lost and wayward cyborgs.
For example, in “Prez,” Goulart tells us about a man who learns that it can be dangerous to make an enemy of a family pooch which is not only more than human but able to turn on to become inhuman. “Into the Shop” features a crime-fighting car that can’t keep his friends and foes straight, while “The Monte Cristo Complex” portrays a man grasping at revenge against the ultimate bureaucracy.
As for Screwloose, an android who can kill and die for love, the reader needs to know what’s become of him, because Screwloose is becoming now.
