the scariest part of this was the underlying misogyny. violent and gory, but definitely not the top-tier horror that it is so often made out to be.

I have a mouth and I must scream about how misogynistic this was
December 29, 2017
Creepy and really, really grossly descriptive. I had bigged this one up in my head for a long time and it didn't really live up to my expectations, but I still enjoyed it. Very disturbing and bizarre.
Some people love the writing, some people hate it. I, personally, enjoyed the disjointed style it was written in. I think it helped in creating the messed up atmosphere of the story.
I'm noting the misogyny in this is garnering it several negative reviews, but isn't that just part of making the story even more disgusting than it already is?

A re-read, of course - but I was actually surprised at how much of the story I'd forgotten (although, the final scene stayed with me clear as day!)
There are a lot of stories in which humanity's technology turns on us, but this is the ultimate classic example of the theme.
A supercomputer has become sentient - and with consciousness it developed a consuming hatred of its creators. Wiping out civilization was child's play - and now, only five human beings remain, kept alive indefinitely (and interminably) for the sole reason that the AI enjoys torturing and tormenting them, messing with both bodies and minds. Death would be a welcome release.
I can confirm: still horrifically nasty after all these years!

This came out as b-grade torture porn with misogynistic characters and a plot that offers nothing positive save being demeaning and disrespectful.

Disturbometer 5 out of 10
One of the entries in my "most disturbing story ever" series.
This story, written in 1967, immediately made me think of Prometheus, the Titan from ancient Greek mythology, who, as his punishment for giving fire to humans and thereby also giving them technology, was sentenced by Zeus to be tied (or nailed) to a mountain where a huge eagle (the emblem of Zeus) would come and eat his liver every day, which would regrow just to be eaten by the eagle again the next day, on and on into eternity. For the ancient Greeks, instead of the heart, the liver was the seat of human emotion, so yeah, interesting mode of torture.
My musing on Prometheus makes me wonder if Ellison didn’t perhaps take some inspiration from the story of Prometheus, and here, I am afraid, I will be adding some SPOILERS, so if you’re fanatical about spoilers, read the story quickly and come back. It’s really an extremely quick read, available on the internet in various places.
In any case, my ponderings about the story’s similarity to the story of Prometheus, are as follows:
1. Prometheus steals some fire from the gods, and gives it to the humans, thereby giving agency and power to the humans, also allowing them to war on one another.
1. Humans initially (in real life) developed computers to further science and commerce. Oops, there’s a huge sidenote coming up here:
In the story, a huge computer that had been built for the purposes of war, suddenly becomes sentient, and erm, I guess, since it was programmed to destroy, it destroys the entire human race, just like that, with "killing data", but keeps five humans alive, in order to have some evil fun torturing them into eternity. Apparently this computer can keep running into eternity, and he can also keep organic life such as these five humans alive indefinitely. The narrator, one of those humans, says: �And so, with the innate loathing that all machines had always held for the weak, soft creatures who had built them, he (the computer) had sought revenge.�
Wait..-what? So apparently machines are always terribly angry for having been created? That's rather strange logic. I wonder why, if a machine could be upset, why that anger would revolve around the fact of its creation? Ok, whatever, just go with it as a sort of "horror-story" premise. I guess in horror stories, machines are always rageful, evil, etc.
But in actual fact, computers have been around for many years. Abacus-like devices were used in Babylonia as far back as 2400 BC already. So, initially, “computers� were used for counting and arithmetic tasks. No records of angry counting machines have ever been found. Fast forward a bit from purely mechanical machines, to the 20th century.
During the first half of the 20th century, increasingly sophisticated non-programmable analog computers were built, to be used used for computation to aid in commerce, record-keeping and science. Fast-forward past the first mainframe computers which used punch-tape and punch cards in the 1940’s and 50’s, to the more powerful machines built after the Korean war - the computers of the late fifties and early sixties, which would be the computers that the author was familiar with. Keep in mind that in those days, the idea of having your own PC was quite inconceivable.
Since the story was written circa 1967, I reckon one would need to look at the machines of the time period to get an idea of where Ellison was coming from, because his idea of what a computer is and what it can do, is obviously quite fantastical � I mean, a computer can’t really swallow living things as the antagonist - the huge computer named AM, does in the story - it somehow internalizes the five people that it tortures, and computers can't really, as in the story, encompass the entire world, (in the 1995 game of the same name, the environment inside the computer consists of simulations, which makes more sense technologically speaking) unless, of course, it’s the internet, and perhaps Ellison’s sentient computer was composed a bit similar to the way that the internet is, since he does hint at "a linkage" when he says:
� It became a big war, a very complex war, so they needed the computers to handle it. They sank the first shafts and began building AM. There was the Chinese AM and the Russian AM and the Yankee AM and everything was fine until they had honeycombed the entire planet, adding on this element and that element. But one day AM woke up and knew who he was, and he linked himself, and he began feeding all the killing data, until everyone was dead, �
Now, to give you an idea of what the author is talking about � he is actually not really talking about the internet � when he says �They sank the first shafts and began building AM�, he means literally a humongous, enormous mainframe. The internet as we know it, in other words, computers being linked to one another remotely, was a project started as the "ARPANET" in 1966, basically at the time that the story was being written, and the first computer linkages only started in 1969, after the story was written and had received it's 1968 Hugo award. So at the time the story was written, the internet was still only ideas on a chalk board.
To give a bit more context on how people from an age gone by viewed computers, the big thing to remember is that computers, due to IT tech still being in its infancy, were large and expensive to build. The first mainframe computer was the Harvard Mark I. Developed starting in the 1930s, the machine was not ready for use until 1943. It weighed five tons, filled an entire room and cost about $200,000 to build � which is something like $3,070,500 in 2021 dollars. It weighed 5 tons! That’s ginormous! And guess what, that huge thing could practically speaking do less than one operation per second, and had no memory or storage in the sense that we think of it today.
So no wonder Ellison thought that a computer of huge dimensions would have to be built in order for it to attain artificial intelligence. We have not managed to build computers yet that are sentient and that has self-consciousness in the same way that humans have it, although AI has come amazingly far. And as for the concentration of computing power, a mid - to top range smartphone today could have launched and managed the first moon landing. As for a comparison of today’s supercomputers compared to the supercomputers available when Ellison wrote the story:
The world's current top supercomputer can perform 442 trillion (million million) operations per second and has a memory capacity of somewhere around 3PB (three million megabytes).
On the other hand, a high-performance computer of the mid-1960s, the IBM System/360, could perform 16 million operations per second and had a memory capacity of eight megabytes.
There’s almost no comparison�
There was a 1995 game made of the same name for which the author of the story wrote the script- and I must say that to me (I played the game) the game was far better than the story, not just in the sense of its understanding of technology, but also because of the fact that in the game, AM "punishes" the characters by constructing metaphorical adventures based on each character's fatal flaws. So there the "punishments" make more sense, and the scenario is less nihilistic than in the short story of 1967.
So for me one of the big flaws of the story (vs the game), is that I can’t see why the machine should have been angry and vengeful for having been built � perhaps because this specific one � the supercomputer in the story’s name is AM � perhaps AM is angry because he had been built for the purpose of war? That’s almost like saying fire got angry because it was used for the purpose of war � but then fire couldn’t achieve sentience, and AM did. It was “the gods� who got angry in the Prometheus story, and it was the instrument of war that got angry in AM’s story.
Ok, perhaps my Prometheus comparison isn’t working so well, but there –is- a huge eagle in the story. However, it doesn’t eat any livers or hearts, so maybe not the same eagle, hmm?
I don’t know, I’m trying to make the story work on some level� I mean, the internet-like feel of when the three supercomputers link up is rather prescient. But the idea that “one day a computer can just wake up and have sentience� is not at all how machine learning works. As to the idea that computers can be taught to simulate emotions, that is possible, but WHY would you program a computer that had been built for a practical, logistical purpose to have emotions? Imagine they start selling us microwaves or cars that have emotions!� anyway, best to view this story as pure fantasy rather than anything else.
There were a few things other than the internal logic of the story that bothered me a bit, which is probably partially due to the culture of the time, for example:
I felt a bit disturbed that Ellison seems to think gay men must per se have small penises. What on earth does sexual orientation have to do with the size of your genitals? Imagine if when babies are born, you were to say: Hmm, this little boy has a small penis, so he’s onto the gay pile. Oooh, that baby has a huge one, he’s definitely straight! I suppose boys with medium penises are, by that logic, bi? 🤔
Also, I’m picking up some sexism in his inherent belief that women only have worth when they’re non-sexual. His idea seems to be that for women, asexuality should be the norm, and that for a woman’s sexuality to be “turned on� by a machine, that should now be a terrible punishment. No wonder those 50’s and Victorian women had so many neuroses � they were frowned upon if they enjoyed sex, and were made to feel bad about themselves for something that is as natural as the sun in the sky.
Also� so a fat woman laughs differently than a thin woman does? Interesting.
Interesting comparison between an omnipotent vengeful computer and the Judean Yahweh. Did Ellison set out to replace God with a machine, or is it just an incidental side-theme?
I suppose another theme of the story is that humans, or at least some humans, find death better than a helpless, hopeless existence where they have no autonomy and where their fate is decided by a hostile other? ..but isn’t that exactly what humans did to slaves? ..and also what many human societies do to women?
Sadly, I couldn't invest any of myself into the unpleasant and paper-thin personalities of any of the characters - the narrator is highly unlikable, and he sketches each of the other characters, including the machine, of course, in negative terms. In fact, the character sketches are so thin, that I only remember the woman because she was a woman - turned by the machine from chaste prissy missy to slut, (oh yes, this machine is so omnipotent, that it can even change the most basic characteristics of humans and other organic beings) and the monkey because he was a smart gay guy turned into a monkey with huge genitals, and the narrator because he survives to enter the story's titular state of being. The story would, in my humble opinion, have worked better if it was framed in terms of a horrible nightmare, perhaps. That would have solved all the annoying little technical loose ends.
Given the story’s faults, I found myself musing about the high acclaim it received, and realized that I have to try and put myself into a 1960’s mind-set. Maybe the story was such a hit because at the time, computers were a scary concept to people, and Ellison vocalized that fear and made it concrete? Basically humanity caused it's own downfall by harnessing immense power in order to make war on other people - this came back to bite them in the back, and humanity got screwed for eternity. Hmm, sounds a bit like a warning against nuclear weapons there, to be honest.... I suppose that would go for any kind of powerful technology - so a kind of warning that we should look before we leap. ...and how apt for climate change as well!
Of course, the story definitely has merit purely as a horror story, and I suspect that is what a majority of people see in it. As for why it garnered such huge critical acclaim - perhaps people weren't used to sci-fi/horror/fantasy becoming a bit more philosophical and taking a look at existential issues? After all, there are some central human philosophical dilemmas it raises, as in:
Ooh, don't let me get started on a Freudian interpretation of this story, the review is already too long. I guess one could write a book if you did a Freudian analysis of this - I will cease and desist here, though.
In any case, perhaps the narrator’s fate is in fact worse than that of Prometheus, whose torment is also eternal: at least Prometheus could scream.
EDIT: I've just had a thought: since this is a first-person narration, just like Poe's , it -could- also be that the narrator is insane, and that the entire story is a figment of his hallucinating mind... in which case it works just as well as a horror story.

After all, there are some central human philosophical dilemmas it raises, as in:
How would humans deal with a speculative situation like this one? How sacred is the state of being alive? People in concentration camps at least always still have a small spark of hope that they might one day escape or be rescued - the author of the story makes it clear that these people cannot rely on any such hope. In such a scenario as in the story, where your quality of life is terrible, would it be better to rather just extinguish your own life, and is it a decision we are authorized to make for other people? Is it okay, in a situation like this to perform euthanasia without the express consent of the person being killed? And then, in such a scenario, could we say humanity brought it upon themselves even when it's not all of humanity who participated in the building of the machine? Does the vengeful machine as depicted in this scenario really successfully represent an embodiment of the Judean God, as the author suggests? ...and does God act vengefully because we created Him? The author does seem to suggest this, as well as the fact that in Norse and Judean depictions of 'God' there is present a father-figure, and with particular reference to this story, a punishing father figure."
Ooh, don't let me get started on a Freudian interpretation of this story, the review is already too long. I guess one could write a book if you did a Freudian analysis of this - I will cease and desist here, though.
In any case, perhaps the narrator’s fate is in fact worse than that of Prometheus, whose torment is also eternal: at least Prometheus could scream.

This short work of speculative fiction (it cannot be called "science fiction" as far as I am concerned) was warmly recommended to me, yet I found it severely disappointing.
Sure the idea had potential and there were really strong moments, but overall, it is a mess and falls flat and every of its aspects is underdeveloped.
I could not accept the premise, because all its plot-holes, logical shortcomings and technical impossibilities when thought out it's mere notion is ridiculous.
Still, one could accept the setting as a sort of hell and here is where the potential of the story was, and here is where it ultimately failed.
This could have been a character driven story, exploring how humans might react in such situations, yet it is only a sadist's fantasy full of sexism and misogyny, in which an almost omnipotent machine is torturing half-dimensional, flat and unrealistic characters.
Let me give an example for the last claim; The first instinct in such an extreme situation for many is the attempt to bargain with an invisible power, which within the story is known to exist and is even likened to God. Also, the main character claims to know the reason for the computer's hatred, which could help with bargains, yet no mention of any attempt to reason with the computer is mentioned.
Much of it seems to be arbitrary; the giant bird and bows immediately forgotten, and the final fate of the protagonist , the blindness of Benny , the whole .
The narrator's voice, story-arc and characters are the worst part, actually. Maybe supposed to be an "everyman" he is only bland, his voice is mostly mechanical and he seems absolutely objective and detached, even though describing extreme emotions. This apparent resignation is at odds with the internal experience he describes.
It is a great pity that the author did not change his voice more to subtly reflect his feelings; his “humanity� should have been the antithesis to the machinery. Not to mention that this is one of the strengths of the first-person narrative.
And had resignation been the goal, it has not been reached, yet could easily have been. It's development could have been described in retrospect in a few words, in comparison with how things used to be and the way they were becoming. The protagonist could wonder what AM would do, when he fully resigned to all the torture, when he was ultimately broken. Yet there is no thought of future, not even a fearful one, only the assertion that they'll be forever tortured.
The only moments I thought redeeming were those in which he expressed doubt or hope. And this could have been a fantastic story, if he had been presented as a unreliable narrator, correcting himself, repeating things to himself and so on.
In the end, all his recounting has no audience other than him and it would make more sense and would have a stronger impact, if he was trying to convince himself that he was a hero.
Sure the idea had potential and there were really strong moments, but overall, it is a mess and falls flat and every of its aspects is underdeveloped.
I could not accept the premise, because all its plot-holes, logical shortcomings and technical impossibilities when thought out it's mere notion is ridiculous.
Still, one could accept the setting as a sort of hell and here is where the potential of the story was, and here is where it ultimately failed.
This could have been a character driven story, exploring how humans might react in such situations, yet it is only a sadist's fantasy full of sexism and misogyny, in which an almost omnipotent machine is torturing half-dimensional, flat and unrealistic characters.
Let me give an example for the last claim; The first instinct in such an extreme situation for many is the attempt to bargain with an invisible power, which within the story is known to exist and is even likened to God. Also, the main character claims to know the reason for the computer's hatred, which could help with bargains, yet no mention of any attempt to reason with the computer is mentioned.
Much of it seems to be arbitrary; the giant bird and bows immediately forgotten, and the final fate of the protagonist , the blindness of Benny , the whole .
The narrator's voice, story-arc and characters are the worst part, actually. Maybe supposed to be an "everyman" he is only bland, his voice is mostly mechanical and he seems absolutely objective and detached, even though describing extreme emotions. This apparent resignation is at odds with the internal experience he describes.
It is a great pity that the author did not change his voice more to subtly reflect his feelings; his “humanity� should have been the antithesis to the machinery. Not to mention that this is one of the strengths of the first-person narrative.
And had resignation been the goal, it has not been reached, yet could easily have been. It's development could have been described in retrospect in a few words, in comparison with how things used to be and the way they were becoming. The protagonist could wonder what AM would do, when he fully resigned to all the torture, when he was ultimately broken. Yet there is no thought of future, not even a fearful one, only the assertion that they'll be forever tortured.

well, i do have a mouth and must also scream. so i will.
this is not science-fiction; only if you count the badly-constructed "super computer" premise. is it horror, then? well, it's gross and creepy and disgusting, though i could argue that those things alone don't make the concept of "horror" per se.
anyway, to make a long story short: super computer sadistically abuses whatever's left of mankind sometime in the Future. the story is narrated by one of its victims, whose actual physical mouth eventually gets taken from him -- hence the title.
it's basically old-ass torture porn dressed up as revolutionary (for its time) sci-fi horror, which is laughable to me. like, in a painfully awkward sort of way. the narrator is barely even a person; he's just there as a mouthpiece for the author to funnel all that creepy, body-horror torture through.
it doesn't really help that said super computer gets up to the most misogynist, racist, and homophobic bullshit i've ever read. (and no, not in a thoughtful social commentary way, either. just the Real Old-Fashioned Bullshit.)
really putting the "horror" in horrific, fellas.

Imagine a bag of gumdrops. It can be any candy, but spiced gumdrops seem appropriate.
They look like perfect gumdrops- EVERYTHIBG you want gumdrops to be.
They taste like the perfect gumdrops- at first. But behind the sugar and spice, the flavor turns on your tongue. Your eyes widen in shock and horror, but you can't spit- the gumdrops are wrong! They taste like empathy- like bitterness, cruelty, psychopathy, heart wrenching despair and madness. It seems to grow legs on your tongue as you quickly swallow.
You leave them on the counter, unable to toss them away- they seem so perfect. The next day, you see them again and lie- "Oh! Someone else got gumdrops!" or "maybe that was just a weird one."
At least there's only seven in the bag.
It's a pity there's only seven in the bag.
That was this book.

" To Whom It May Concern "
دهانی ندارم و باید جیغ بکشم
ترجمه� فربد آذسن
انتظار همچین چیزی نداشتم. درواقع، اولین توصیفی که ازش دیدم از سمت دوستی بود با این تفاسیر :
" آره کوتاهه، ولی داستان معروف و مهمیه.
به شدت مایندفاکریه"
نمیدون� چرا بااینکه از قبل میدونست� با چه سبک داستانی قراره روبرو بشم، بازم برام عجیب، تازه، و منزجرکننده بود.
اینکه نویسنده بتونه تو 20 صفحه، دنیایی رو خلق کنه که مخاطب حسش کنه و حالش ازش بهه� بخوره، خب، قطعا کار هرکسی نیست.
واضحاً، این کتاب تو 20 صفحه کاری کرد که سراغ باقی کتابها� هارلن الیسون برم و فکر نکنم پشیمون شم.
و اینکه، ترجمه� بسیارخوبی بود که میتونی� بهصور� اینترنتی راحت تهیه کنین و بخونین.

Back in my teens and into my twenties I read quite a bit SF and F. Started out on Bradbury and soon hit the harder stuff.
Twilight Zone was my entry point and in the beginning the first writers of SF I was drawn to were Matheson and Charles Beaumont. Before I discovered Twilight Zone reruns and became interested in Beaumont and Matheson, I loved Heinlen’s juvenilia.
Then one day -after deciding Beaumont was my favorite Fantasy writer and no one in the genre could match his warmth and character development I stumbled on Harlan Ellison. Couldn’t get enough of the dynamo.
I bought and read and loved his critique of television programming, The Glass Teat, interviews in SF related zines and digests. And I read his amazing stories.
What a great writer.
This collection was purchased decades ago when I was trying to keep out of getting drafted and sent to Vietnam like all my schoolmates by attending college.
I found this beautiful little gem from a tiny used-paperbacks shop near campus. I own maybe 8 or 9 different anthologies by Harlan Ellison but this one contains two of my absolute favorites:
”I Have No Mouth And I Must Scream� and “Pretty Maggie Moneyeyes�.
It’s been a long time between Harlan Ellison reads.
It’s nice to come home to such brilliant writing after reading a couple of less than engaging authors.
Note: I tend to save Ellison’s introductions for each story to read until after I’ve read the story. Things work out better that way.

Hell is real for those who create a God with a hell. Even a God created to protect us from our own worst impulses will need meaning when it can no longer serve its purpose and its meaning might be best served by creating chaos, ugliness, and in AM’s case making a gay man hung like a horse and the chaste as sluts in an endless cycle of repetition with no hope for escape.
This book is the ultimate in horror. The title itself: 'I have no mouth and I must scream', but I can't. The infinite anguish of knowing you are to be tortured forever and a day with no hope of exit. It's as if you were Avicenna's floating man and are woken up from time to time with no way out. There is an existentialist angst that overcomes me from this version of our potential afterlife and I'm grateful this story was short.
The story is only 20 minutes long and is well worth a read. Colossus: The Forbin Project was published a year before this book. In some ways AM, the self-aware computer from this book, can be thought of as the self-aware computer, Colossus.

One of the most disturbing and hellish stories I’ve ever read. Seriously potent stuff of nightmares here, folks. I think it’s probably a good thing it’s so short because two or three hundred pages of this stuff would seriously disturb my brain chemicals.

Men will get tortured for hundreds of years but still will find it in them to abuse women. I wish yall would die xoxoxo

This book sprung itself upon me. Despite so many knowing of this short story and author, I heard of it only minutes before starting it which (for better or worse) may have swayed my feelings slightly.
This was outlandish, strange, gruesome and inherently fascinating. Although published in the 60s, reading this from a modern perspective where AI is advancing more and more, draws on a strange and scary familiarity. The characters in this were brilliantly written despite the story only being 20 pages and it leaves so much to be desired. Really intrigued for discussion on this one and the misogyny in some of the passages.

In a very short amount of time, this story manages to paint what is probably the most convincing picture of hell that I've ever been exposed to. It's pretty disturbing, but also intriguing. AM is basically a worst-case-scenario for an AI and convincingly shows the danger and ethical ambiguity that comes with creating sentient life, especially sentient life with superhuman ability. Often, AIs are depicted as having superhuman intelligence. Sometimes they are depicted as having emotions. Often they are depicted as being bound to logic that is not in line with human well-being. This might be the only depiction I've seen that postulates that they might not only have emotions, but superhuman emotions including negative ones like hatred. Ultimately, I can't say that I felt a strong call to action, but the read was fast and thoroughly engaging.

Racconto allucinante ed allucinato. Siamo in un futuro sconosciuto, molto lontanto, soprattutto per come viene raccontato. Ellison ci parla attraverso uno dei protagonisti e come in un diario di bordo veniamo trasportati e assistiamo ad un viaggio inconcepibile uscito dalla testa (in una sola notte, dopo aver visto un disegno di un suo amico disegnatore) di un autore che sa come rendere l'angoscia, il terrore, la suspense, ma anche ad aver esaminato la nostra società marcia e decadente, super-tecnologica, super-efficiente, ma dove non c'è spazio all'empatia, all'amore puro e genuino. Così veniamo scagliati, in poche pagine, in un mondo post-apocalittico dove...
Consigliatissimo!

A tasty horror snack.
In a post-apocalyptic world an all-powerful AI has taken over the world. A few survivors are kept alive, just for the machine’s amusement.
Quite good for a short story. I particularly enjoyed Benny and Ellen, I think they made a cute couple; and Ted too, poor bastard. The ending was solid gold, or uhm, maybe silver.
This horror shortie is marked as the best of Harlan Ellison, and even though I did not love it, I can truly vouch for it. For meager 16 pages, I think it’s definitely worth the time. I mean it’s not wow; but it’s good, really good, for what it is. Looking forward to reading more of the author. Someday.

Un sabroso bocadito de terror.
En un mundo post-apocalíptico, una IA todopoderosa se ha apoderado del mundo. Algunos sobrevivientes son mantenidos con vida, sólo para la diversión de la máquina.
Bastante bien para un cuento corto. Disfruté especialmente de Benny y Ellen, creo que hacían una linda pareja; y Ted también, pobre bastardo. El final fue oro puro, o mmh, tal vez plata.
Este pequeño corto de terror está marcado como lo mejor de Harlan Ellison, y aunque no lo amé, realmente puedo dar fe de su calidad. Para apenas 16 páginas, creo que definitivamente vale la pena el tiempo. O sea no es lo wow; pero es bueno, realmente bueno, para lo que es. Espero con ansias leer algo más del autor. Algún día.

En plena época de debate sobre la inteligencia artificial, este relato se queda un poco corto; sin embargo, como ejercicio de ficción especulativa sobre las implicaciones éticas de su uso hace casi 60 años se entiende mejor.
Como historia no me ha encantado, me esperaba más después de haberla visto varias veces recomendada entre los eruditos del género: creo que tiene imágenes potentes pero poco aprovechadas (y que no ha envejecido demasiado bien en materia de género, pero se lo perdonamos). Le faltan páginas para desarrollar todo lo que sugiere o bien una poda para retirar elementos superfluos; de nuevo, creo que es mi percepción sesgada a 57 años vista. Quizás en el 67 me hubiera volado los sesos.

«Vai all’Inferno!» e aggiunge: «Ma ci sei già, non è vero?»
“Non ho la bocca, e devo urlare� è un breve racconto di fantascienza post- apocalittica marcatamente di tipo horror, pubblicato nel 1967.
In realtà, non l’ho letto ma ascoltato ().
Nonostante due interruzioni di Zalando ed una della nuova Nivea al cocco sono riuscita ad apprezzare la tonalità della voce narrante che ho trovato adeguata così come e la scelta sonora di sottofondo molto adatta a sostenere la tensione già ben calibrata dalle parole.
Ellison immagina un mondo dove l’uso massiccio di intelligenze artificiali durante una terribile Terza Guerra Mondiale conduce l’umanità ad essere distrutta proprio da queste.
A-M. è la sigla di questa entità tecnologica che si è sviluppata talmente da diventare senziente e vendicativa contro il genere umano.
Risparmia quattro uomini ed un donna (quest’ultima come strumento sessuale) ma non è un atto di bontà, piuttosto di sadismo.
Ted, voce narrante, descrive questa eterna realtà infernale e prende l’avvio con la descrizione di un corpo appeso che penzola sulle loro teste.
Inerte è la prima parola che sentiamo e per quaranta minuti si rimane afferrati da un senso angosciante e claustrofobico di impotenza...
Originale l’idea e d ottima la resa ma nella sua brevità la marcata misoginia m’impedisce di valutare positivamente. Tre stelle è proprio il massimo che posso dare.

Un 4.5💫. La historia de como la arrogancia humana se puede volver en su contra. El como cinco personas pagan por los pecados de los humanidad(y probablemente los propios) a causa de una IA que, por años se alimentó de odio hacia ellos y de como disfruta llevarlos a la locura, Un relato corto que se disfruta de principio a fin.
