Beautiful edition, as always from No Reply. I guessed the ending a couple of pages ahead :) ( ) It’s nearly impossible to properly review The Last Question without spoiling it; without the crucial line that literally inverts the story you think you’re reading. Suffice it to say that Asimov (my favorite science fiction writer) has the goal of making you think about this. It’s about fifteen minutes to read, and all you need to know is that entropy is the measure of chaos. I could probably write an essay on The Last Question that would actually be longer than the story. But that would be totally useless if you haven’t read it, because anything I write much longer than this will result in a watering down of the story. Just read it., and remember, no problem is insoluble in all conceivable circumstances. I cannot deny that Asimov is a brilliant mind and on an intellectual level that probably makes me an amoeba, but there is something falsely brilliant about this story that repelled me. It is an absence of any belief system for man, a belief in nothing except the technology he creates that outstrips him and leaves him a disembodied, un-individualized Borg. Even Star Trek knew that no matter how efficient the collective might be it was not the answer. What good is immortality to these people, for that matter what good would it be for any of us? There is an answer to the Last Question, maybe just not the answer people want to hear. Queen got it right. Who Wants to Live Forever geen besprekingen | voeg een bespreking toe

¿Es posible revertir el inevitable final del Universo, o el mundo debe acabar de todas formas? es la pregunta que desde un día del siglo XXI, hasta generaciones y generaciones posteriores en el tiempo, hacen los humanos a los ordenadores. En un relato aparentemente sencillo sobre un asunto sobrecogedor, el fin de los días, Asimov demuestra, una vez más, una mente preclara y una mano maestra para sobrecoger al lector y dejarlo en vilo, incluso después de la lectura.
