标题: 《All of Us Can Almost_. 》作者:- Carol Emshwiller【EPUB】
Carol Emshwiller's short story, "All of Us Can Almost . . .," is the third in a related series of works published on SCI FICTION (the first being, "On Display Among the Lesser" in mid-April, and the second, "Gliders Though They Be," in June--both accessible at the SCI FICTION archives). Though the relationship is unstated, the family resemblance between these tales is unmistakable: A recurrent flight and flying theme; and a familiar, yet alien society and setting, with indisputably anthropomorphic characters that have a pronounced resemblance to Earth beasties, yet who defy easy classification. I once again found myself playing the "what animal is it?" game with this newest story, trying to pinpoint what manner of flight-yearning fowl peopled "All of Us." Were they chickens, vultures, hornbills? I remained stymied when I reached the end, but I've become used to that uncertainty when reading Emshwiller's works.
