Dying Inside by Robert Silverberg (November 1972)
Requirements: ePUB Reader | 330 Kb
Overview: In 1972, Robert Silverberg, even then an acknowledged leader in the science fiction field, published a book that was immediately hailed as a masterpiece. More than four decades later, Dying Inside has stood the test of time and has been recognized as one of the finest novels the field has ever produced. Never wasting a word, Silverberg persuasively shows us what it would be like to read minds, painting an unforgettable portrait of a man shaped by that unique power; a power he is now inexorably losing.

David Selig was born with an awesome power, the ability to look deep into the human heart and to probe the darkest truths hidden in the recesses of the soul. With reckless abandon, he used this talent in the pursuit of pleasure. Then, one day, his power began to die.

Acclaimed upon first publication by SF critics and mainstream reviewers alike, Dying Inside is overdue for reintroduction to today's SF audience. This is a novel for everyone who appreciates deeply affecting characterization, imaginative power, and the irreplaceable perspective unique to speculative fiction of the highest order.

"It's insane that Dying Inside should be subtly dismissed as merely a genre classic. This is a superb novel about a common human sorrow, that great shock of middle age -- the recognition that we are all dying inside and that all of us must face the eventual disappearance of the person we have been." ~Michael Dirda, Washington Post

"In a lifetime of reading that might understandably ignore speculative fiction, you do yourself a disservice should you not read Dying Inside. The novel is that good, that excellent, that sui generis; the best novel of speculative fiction ever written, ever published. So excellent, in fact, that the book transcends the genre." ~ephemeral
