Mini-Review (click to view--possible spoilers)
Pro: The narrator describes a life in a time of technological changes that eventually make the Earth incomprehensible to us, and yet he ends where he began; snuggled against his sister, but in a horrible way--reminiscent of Annabel Lee, by Edgar Allan Poe.
Con: Most of the technological developments are very hard to believe. The story isn't very exciting until the very last line.
