Plowing the Dark

"Although sometimes heart rending, particularly in the Beirut sections, PLOWING IN THE DARK is by and large a work of great charm animated by the simple joy of making things....A smaller-scale work than, say, GAIN, PLOWING THE DARK...remains rooted in its historical moment and insistent on human perception as the measure of things. Although imbued with the horrors of war and the unholy technologies of unmaking the world, it feels almost optimistic in its resolution, refreshing in its evocation of a time less cyberselfish than our own."Powers, Richard is the author of 'Plowing the Dark' with ISBN 9780312280123 and ISBN 0312280122.
