Nytt från Boing Boings Cory Doctorow

Jag tänkte slå ett slag för BoingBoing-killen Cory Doctorows senaste bok Someone Comes to Town, Someone Leaves Town. Handlingen talar för sig själv…

”It’s only natural that Alan, the broadminded hero of Doctorow’s fresh, unconventional SF novel, is willing to help everybody he meets. After all, he’s the product of a mixed marriage (his father is a mountain and his mother is a washing machine), so he knows how much being an outcast can hurt. Alan tries desperately to behave like a human being–or at least like his idealized version of one. He joins a cyber-anarchist’s plot to spread a free wireless Internet through Toronto at the same time he agrees to protect his youngest brothers (members of a set of Russian nesting dolls) from their dead brother who’s now resurrected and bent on revenge.”

Men det riktigt coola med boken är inte Alans berg- och tvättmaskinmixture, utan att Cory Doctorow fortsätter att publicera sina böcker under Creative Commons-licens.

En äkta Robin Hood i modern copyleft-anda. Det gillar vi.
