The Machine Stops by E.M. Forster
4.0

Bullet Review:

+ Was this written yesterday?!

+ Brilliant. Stunning.

+ Forster utilizes science fiction in a masterful manner, effortlessly painting the picture of the rooms, the arduous flight to visit Kuno, the inanity of life of repeating ideas.

+ Is this review just a repeating of another's ideas? How much of modern society is just second, third, fourth hand repetitions of someone else's brilliant ideas?

+ Will this happen when our modern machine stops? When we can no longer plug in to the internet to sequester ourselves in our cubicles?

+ Go out and look at Orion before we need a respirator.
