005 - William Gibson - The Gernsback Continuum (1981)

Mar 29, 2016, 03:44 PM

The Gernsback Continuum was William Gibson’s first published story, appearing in Universe 11 in 1981. The version I read was reprinted in Mirrorshades: A Cyberpunk Anthology (1986), edited by Bruce Sterling.

It tells the story of an arts photographer taking a trip across America to document retro-futuristic architecture.

Have you read this story? What did you think?
