Eight O'Clock in the Morning
by Ray Faraday Nelson
Eight O’Clock in the Morning is about aliens taking over the planet by disguising themselves as humans and using subliminal messages to control the masses.
The book is Sci-fi paranoia at its very best. I never heard of Ray Faraday Nelson but he’s associated with Sartre, Burroughs, Ginsberg and other members of the Beat Era, as well as collaborating with Philip K Dick, which doesn’t surprise at all.
He’s also a legend for helping Henry Miller (one of my favourite writers) smuggle copies of Tropic of Cancer out of France.
A great companion piece to I Have No Mouth And I Must Scream, Eight O’Clock in the Morning is a brief but flawless story about the need to resist conformity, avoid consumerism, and try to be self-aware.
Thank you to Bill for bringing it to my attention
