For the first time ever all three Suptertoys stories are collected in one essential volume.
Featuring one of Brian Aldiss’ most renowned works, ‘Supertoys Last All Summer Long’, which was adapted into the 2001 film ‘A.I.’ directed by Steven Spielberg.
David is just a little boy, a little boy who loves his mother and his teddy bear. David wants to make his mother happy, and tell her he loves her, but can't quite seem to find the words.
His verbal communication centre is giving him trouble again. He may have to go back to the factory.
With a brand new introduction from Brian Aldiss, ‘The Supertoys Trilogy’ is essential reading for all Science Fiction fans. Also includes ‘Supertoys When Winter Comes’ and ‘Supertoys in Other Seasons’.

    👍Worth reading
    💧Soppy

    Грустная история о мальчике-роботе не желающего верить что он робот, о куче технических новшеств которые делают жизнь идеальной но все это не работает. На основе этой истории сняли фильм "A.I".

Quotes

    He let out a yell of joy. They danced round the room. Pressure of population was such that reproduction had to be strictly controlled. Childbirth required government permission. For this moment they had waited four years. Incoherently they cried their delight.

    We believe people would be afraid of a being with a human brain. Our serving-man has a small computer in his cranium.

    An overcrowded world is the ideal place in which to be lonely.
