EMERGENCE...they're closer than we fear.
**Review
"This is an intriguing story, one in which Fry explores themes of language and the ways in which everything is connected, with words and letters as the atoms of understanding. The strange events which seem to threaten man and boy are possibly the attempts of an alien consciousness to comprehend what is unknown to it, and not necessarily harmful, or at least not deliberately so... Another strength of the story is in the relationship between Jack and Paul, two generations held together by a very obvious bond of love, while Jack himself is a nostalgic figure, grieving for dead wife Christine and a way of life, traditions and ways of doing things, that he feels is endangered. There is a lot going on in this novella." -- Peter Tennant, BLACK STATIC
