so yesterday i got a bunch of books from the library or was it wednesday?

anyway i started reading "gobalhead" by bruce sterling. i just read 1 short story, "our neural chernobyl", and it was great, because he pulls a borges-- i mean instead of telling a long long story he simply reviews an imaginary book where that story is told.

brilliant, and of course it's been done in science fiction since the days of the "encyclopaedia galactica", but it's a really nice short story.

i am not fond of star trek or star wars books & stuff like that though.
