| A young woman named Illa Preneur makes an otherworld journey to a farm family on lonely Tabit. Their eldest son, casualty of yet another war, is doomed to a vegetative existence. His mind is in "link coma," the 23rd century equivalent of a broken record, repeating the same painful last memory over and over. But thoughts can now be recorded and mixed as we do music, and Illa tells the family: "What I do--my art--is to make full sensory experiences. Fictions. But I draw them from the extant. Real life." Her best and only hope is to give the boy sweeter dreams. |
