A rather old fashioned story based around one new technology - in this case the ability to transfer emotion enabling the rich to pay others in special 'call centres' to take their guilt. ( ) Premise is that if you don’t want to feel guilt, or any other emotion, you can pay to have someone else feel your qualia. No need to cry during a funeral. Guilt over cheating on your partner, erase it! And like a lot of crap jobs right now, the job of feeling for others gets shipped to India. A very fine story, and it might even have convinced me to read the author’s highly touted literary science fiction novel. aucune critique | ajouter une critique
