Androidler Elektrikli Koyun Düşler Mi?

Finished the book two days ago. Some things kept me thinking:
-Kipple: JR Isidore is described as not a smart man, but he understands that concept of entropy. He fights with it. He deals with it as he can. In the book you can see how everyone on earth has to live in the remains of the war, but is this man who tries to understand kipple, and is the one person who doesn't complain, but tries to explain it. Human nature, in the least intelligent being in the novel. Represented by this concept, and the thing with the spider.

-Animals(empathy): how sad it could be when you need to have a device to tune your feelings. To share feelings with other people.

This novel made me sad. Not because the story. The situations. The need for artificial things in order to feel. To find an excuse to keep doing what you have to do. "You will be required to do wrong no matter where you go. It is the basic condition of life, to be required to violate your own identity. "

Maybe it is because I feel in the same way. The need to find an excuse to keep doing the chores I have to do. To seek in things, in presents, in turning money (and looking for profitable tasks in order to have money to) into things that could soothe our minds, because there is a great great pressure in ourselves not as people but as tools who need to do certain tasks because it is what others expect from us.

What an empty life. What a great book.

A wonderfully dark and intellectual look at a dystopian future and the meaning of what it is to be called 'human'. An essential read for any fan of sci-fi as well as Blade Runner fans.
