Re: [Marxism] Fantasy and SF for socialists.

["Jacob Levich" <jlevich@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Dear David,

I was the person who posted that query, and thanks for posting this -- gave 
me a few good leads.

Recently I very much enjoyed David Marusek's _Counting Heads_, about a 
future world nearing the singularity and  governed by a cabal of big 
capitalists who keep the proles in line by pitting humans against cloned 
labor. Class politics is only one of many themes in a very richly imagined 
book, but it was of course entirely missed by the mainstream reviewers.

Jake
