27. Terry Bisson Book Reviews From Usenet
Reviews of some of the author's books, collected from Usenet. From the Swedish Link¶ping S.F. Archives.
http://sf.www.lysator.liu.se/sf_archive/sf-texts/books/B/Bisson,Terry.mbox
From archive (archive) Subject: TALKING MAN, by Terry Bisson Keywords: contemporary fantasy, now in paperback From: howard@utastro.UUCP (The Duck) Organization: V645 Cyg Date: 26 Aug 87 04:15:12 GMT A recommendation. Terry Bisson's second novel, TALKING MAN, is out in paperback. Do yourself a favor and read it. TALKING MAN is a contemporary fantasy - that is, it has no dragons, elves, furry-toed folks, wiz- Oops. Well, it *does* have a wizard. More like a god, actually, Talking Man is the wizard who created the world, then fell in love with his creation. He runs a junkyard on a hillside in Kentucky; his taciturnity has earned him his name from his neighbors. Talking Man's disappearance at the hands of his lover/sister/nemesis Dgene leads to a pursuit by his daughter, Crystal, and her boyfriend, William Hendricks Tilden Williams, which starts off in a beautifully described "normal" Kentucky and ends up in a *very* different place, indeed. The book is about Crystal and Williams, growing up. It is also about the hidden beauty of junkyards, and cars, and even farm machinery. (Point of reference: when not under this book's spell, I consider cars at best a necessary evil and at worst a royal pain. Bisson can overcome that.) You will learn about growing tobacco plants and you will see the unforgetable triple bridge across the vast Mississippi Canyon . . . You will have a good time. In this book, as in his first (a science fiction novel called WYRLDMAKER), Bisson displays strikingly originality. Were it not for the lurking Wolfe, TALKING MAN just might have been 1986's best fantasy. Give it a try. Howard Coleman / ut-sally!utastro!howard / U.

They concentrate on the physical not the metaphysical taking us eventually to the end of the Universe. Where do you go with a time machine? If you go into the past, you have some choices to allow changes and create 'Time Cop', yikes, or do you merely observe and report on past events. Move forward you get to the point of there being no further events to observe. The future is finite. The tales lead us to a melancholy point. Seeking out meaning in time travel will always lead to despair. 'Dear Abbey' is the name of a formula that will save the Earth from its greatest enemy - human beings No one really know the cost to the Earth or man himself. Cole, already responsible for a little pro-environment sabotage, is recruited by his fellow lecturer Lee who happens to have a time machine in his pocket.

Originally published in Fantasy and Science Fiction, November 1999 macs What did I think? Same thing I think today. I thought it was slightly weird even if it was legal. But I guess I agreed with the families that there had to be Closure. Look out that window there. I can guarantee you, it's unusual to be so high in Oklahoma City. Ever since it happened, this town has had a thing about tall buildings. It's almost like that son of a bitch leveled this town. Hell, we wanted Closure too, but they had a court order all the way from the Supreme Court. I thought it was about politics at first, and I admit I was a little pissed. Don't use the word pissed. What paper did you say you were with? Never heard of it, but that's me. Anyway, I was miffedis that a word? miffed?until I understood it was about Victims' Rights. So we cancelled the execution, and built the vats, and you know the rest. Well, if you want to know the details you should start with my assistant warden at the time, who handled the details. He's now the warden. Tell him I sent you. Give him my regards. I thought it opened a Pandora's box, and I said so at the time. It turns out of course that there haven't been that many, and none on that scale. The ones that there are, we get them all. We're sort of the Sloan-Ketterings of the thing. See that scum on the vats? You're looking at eleven of the guy who abducted the little girls in Ohio, the genital mutilation thing, remember? Even eleven's unusual. We usually build four, maybe five tops. And never anything on the scale of the macs.

    33. Miller Job Story
    Article by writer terry bisson, subtitled How I met Saint Leibowitz and the Wild Horse Woman but not Walter M. Miller, Jr.
    http://www.sff.net/people/tbisson/miller.html
    A CANTICLE FOR MILLER; or, How I Met Saint Leibowitz and the Wild Horse Woman but not Walter M. Miller, Jr. by Terry Bisson I am a science fiction writer, a dicey business at best. In November, 1995, I got a call from Don Congdon, a literary agent I knew by reputation but had never met. Congdon's a player. He represents William Styron and Ray Bradbury, among others. He asked if I had ever heard of a book called A Canticle for Leibowitz . I said yes, I had. Who hasn't? Canticle is one of the few science fiction books not only known but read outside the field (unlike, say, Dune or Stranger in a Strange Land , which render up their pleasures only to those already attuned to the genre). A novel of nuclear anxiety written in the 1950s, it tells the story of an order of monks in the Southwest and their efforts to keep scientific knowledge alive in the new Dark Age after the "Flame Deluge" or nuclear war. Leibowitz Abbey, and the neighboring village of Sanly Bowitz, are both named after a Los Alamos scientist who became a monk, was martyred by a mob and isjust maybea saint. Leibowitz was Jewish, the joke of the title. The first major post-holocaust SF novel

    34. New York Newsday The Case Of Mumia Abu Jamal
    Editorial by terry bisson about the political climate in Philadelphia, Mumia's background, and the demand for a new trial.
    http://www.sff.net/people/tbisson/mumia.html
    The Case of Mumia Abu Jamal, by Terry Bisson (from New York Newsday In 1978, Philadelphia Mayor (and ex-police chief) Frank Rizzo blew up at a press conference, threatening what he called "the new breed" of journalists. "They [the people] believe what you write and what you say," said Rizzo, "and it's got to stop . One dayand I hope it's in my careeryou're going to have to be held responsible and accountable for what you do." What the "new breed" was doing in 1978, and is still doing today, was exposing police misconduct. A cop had been killed in a confrontation between Philadelphia police and the radical MOVE organization (the same MOVE that was fire-bombed by the city seven years later), and the police version of who shot first hadn't been accepted without question. Rizzo feared a new trend, and he was right. The trend has continued. Today, the Mollen Commission, the NYPD "party"in DC, the Rodney King case and hundreds of other local scandals have exposed the dark underside of police misconduct nationwide. Ironically, the most prominent of the "new breed" of journalists at whom Rizzo's outburst was directed is awaiting execution on Pennsylvania's Death Row, the victimmany believeof a police frame-up. Mumia Abu-Jamal began his journalism career with the Black Panther Party. The Panthers were the original "affirmative action" employer, and Mumia (then Wesley Cook) was Minister of Information for the Philadelphia chapter at age 15, writing for the national newspaper. A heady beginning for a West Philly kid. After the Panthers fell apart (helped by a stiff dose of FBI harassment) Mumia turned to broadcasting. He had the voice, the writing talent and the ambition, and by age 25, he was one of the top names in local radio, interviewing such luminaries as Jesse Jackson and the Pointer Sisters and winning a Peabody Award for his coverage of the Pope's visit. He was president of the Philadelphia Association of Black Journalists, called "one to watch" by Philadelphia magazine.

    by terry bisson " They're made out of meat." Back to terry bisson STORY SHOWCASE Main Page
    http://www.terrybisson.com/meat.html
    From OMNI, April 1991. This story, which was a 1991 Nebula nominee, has been appearing around the internet lately without my name attached. Several people were kind enough to alert me, but the truth is I'm more flattered than offended. ) THEY'RE MADE OUT OF MEAT by Terry Bisson "They're made out of meat." "Meat?" "Meat. They're made out of meat." "Meat?" "There's no doubt about it. We picked up several from different parts of the planet, took them aboard our recon vessels, and probed them all the way through. They're completely meat." "That's impossible. What about the radio signals? The messages to the stars?" "They use the radio waves to talk, but the signals don't come from them. The signals come from machines." "So who made the machines? That's who we want to contact." They made the machines. That's what I'm trying to tell you. Meat made the machines." "That's ridiculous. How can meat make a machine? You're asking me to believe in sentient meat." "I'm not asking you, I'm telling you. These creatures are the only sentient race in that sector and they're made out of meat." "Maybe they're like the orfolei. You know, a carbon-based intelligence that goes through a meat stage."
