Paperback: 7" x 4½". Condizione: Very Good: Light signs of wear. Cover Art: Ray Winder (illustratore). 1982 Edition. © 1980: 1st in the 'Roderick' series of books. 1st printing of 1982 edition:- Synopsis: He isn't human; but he isn't all robot either. He started life in a lab, went to Parochial School, was kidnapped by gypsies, chased by roboticidal, and incompetent, hit-men, told fortunes on the Midway, and finally fostered by an elderly couple who gave up writing science fiction when their stories came true. He's Roderick, the first robot programmed to think and learn, and sent out into the world to re-invent it:- Reviews: "Prodigious, dazzling, inventive, 'Roderick' is a modern masterpiece, a fabulous joyride through the whole crazy, zany funhouse of modern existence, and a parable about all human life" / "A classic novel. It reeks simultaneously of 'Candide', 'Catch-22', 'Player Piano', 'The Wizard Of Oz" - Guardian / "Superb. Comparable with - at times even overtaking - early Kurt Vonnegut" - Time Out / "John Sladek is a science fiction writer whose novels are driven by an incisive, literate humour. In fact he is downright funny. Mr Sladek's latest satire is up to his usual high standard. One of the few serious achievements in a medium which is rapidly exchanging innovation for self-indulgence. The prose is stunning, the characterisation immaculate, the insights unique: 'Roderick' is a small masterpiece" - Now! / Hilarious and serious. Sladek is a major comic talent" - Sunday Times:- (original cost £1.95). Codice articolo 18.003.00513
