Nanoware Time/the Persistence of Vision (Science Fiction Double)

Rating:
Summary: the most beautiful 'social' SF story I have ever read
Review: John Varley's novella 'The persistence of vision' deals with a group of deaf and blind people who take their lives in their own hand.Together they invent an entirely new way of living and communicating with eachother. Riveting.Ian Watsons book I do not know, but the double is worth buying for the second half anyway. Who knows, it might be equally good

Rating:
Summary: Excellent science fiction writing.
Review: John Varley's Persistence of Vision is superb writing, recommended highly. A previous reviewer gloated over the title piece, so I'll merely concur and note that other pieces (such as Phantom of Kansas) are nearly equally riveting. Out of print awhile, but should be reprinted.
