Krátky popis
‘Specimen Days’ is a novel made up of three linked visionary
narratives about the relationship between man and machine. The
first narrative, a ghost story set at the height of the Industrial
Revolution, tells the story of man-eating machines. An ecstatic
boy, barely embodied in the physical world, speaks in the voice of
the great visionary poet Walt Whitman. He works at an oppressive
factory connected to the making of a mysterious substance with some
universal function and on which the world's economy somehow
depends. The slight boy can barely operate the massive machine
which speaks to him in the voice of his devoured brother. A woman
who was to have married the brother is now the object of obsessive
interest by the boy. In a city in which all are mastered by the
machine, the boy is convinced that the woman must be saved before
she too is devoured.
