The Enchanted Duplicator

Jun 07, 2005 23:01

Got around to reading this at last, partly because tnh mentioned it in a recent piece on, of all things, technorati (which I use religiously), partly because it is of course the joint production of the only two Irish Hugo winners to date. It is of course based on the concept best known from Bunyan, and even if it's true that the authors had not read Pilgrim's Progress I think it would have been impossible to grow up when and where they did and not know enough about it to take the piss as they did. (To take another example, Anne has read no Lovecraft but has absorbed enough from my frothy mumblings to get most of the jokes such as the first comment here).

Well, it's good fun, and I suppose that's all that need be said.
