Paperback. Condizione: New. A debut novel of remarkable beauty and invention, The Fortunate Fall is back in print for the first time in almost three decades as a Tor Essential, with a new introduction by Jo Walton Tor Essentials presents new editions of science fiction and fantasy titles of proven merit and lasting value, each volume introduced by an appropriate literary figure. On its first publication in 1996, The Fortunate Fall was hailed as an SF novel of a wired future on par with the debuts of William Gibson and Neal Stephenson. Now it returns to print, as one of the great underground classics of the last several decades in SF. Maya Andreyeva is a "camera," a reporter with virtual-reality-broadcasting equipment implanted in her brain. What she sees, millions see; what she feels, millions share.And what Maya is seeing is the cover-up of a massacre. As she probes into the covert political power plays of a radically strange near-future Russia, she comes upon secrets that have been hidden from the world.and memories that AI-controlled thought police have forced her to hide from herself. Because in a world where no thought or desire is safe, the price of survival is betrayal - of your lover, your ideals, and yourself.This new Tor Essentials edition of The Fortunate Fall includes a new introduction by Jo Walton, winner of the Hugo, Nebula, and World Fantasy Awards.

Prima edizione
Octavo, boards. First edition. "THE FORTUNATE FALL (1996), which - though its basic premise derives from D. G. Compton's THE CONTINUOUS KATHERINE MORTENHOE (1974; rev vt THE UNSLEEPING EYE 1974; vt DEATH WATCH 1981) - intensely presents a cyberpunk world two centuries hence; the female protagonist, a news reporter with a computer-driven camera wired into her sensorium, finds herself deeply involved in an ancient conspiracy involving zombie Russian soldiers and mean streets. The world she inhabits is described with color and verve." - John Clute and David R. Langford, SFE (online). "Carter's brio and inventive spin on all the cyber tropes apparently exhausted in the 1980s and early 1990s is fun, speedy, if never quite as wrenchingly moving as the writer clearly wishes it to be . But the artificial life speculations are exactly right in their quicksilver detail: species and genera and entire phyla of viruses and grander alife creatures that prey on each other in grayspace, the realm of virtual reality." - Broderick and Di Filippo, Science Fiction: The 101 Best Novels, 1985-2010 #45. The author's first novel. A John W. Campbell Award nominee for best new writer. Sargent, British and American Utopian Literature, 1986-2009. A fine copy in fine dust jacket. (#145258).
