... by Richard Powers is a beautifully book about human miscommunication and disconnections; the search of our own identities in this fluid world, with Capgas syndrome (a condition when you believed that your loved one has been replaced by an identical-looking imposter) and cranes annual migration as the central metaphors ... Are "we" just a collection of neuronal firing and connections, or how others perceive us? What is the notion of us? Do we have a soul? It is a perfect antidote to "Consciousness explained" by Daniel Dennett ...
“I am No One
but Tonight on North Line Road
GOD led me to you
so You could Live
and bring back someone else.”
