Sobre este artículo
London: Victor Gollancz Ltd., 1968. First edition. A fine copy in a fine dust jacket in a fine dust jacket with mild toning to the spine panel. (28958). Octavo, boards. His first sf novel. "The Reproductive System introduced into his typical small-town-US setting a brilliant maelstrom of sf activity: a self-reproducing technological device goes out of control in passages of allegorical broadness: but everything turns out all right in the end, though not through positive efforts of the inept cast, and a dreamlike Utopia looms on the horizon. Governing the conniptions of the tale is an obsessive discourse upon and dramatization of the metamorphic relationships between human and Robot, a relationship which lies at the centre of all his subsequent solo novels and much of his short fiction." - SFE online. Reprinted in the U.S. as MECHASM (1969). Anatomy of Wonder (2004) II-1040.
