The end of week fourteen of the Reading Project. Here's what I've read this week:
Pluto: Urasawa x Tezuka v. 3 (Urasawa Naoki et al.)
This is the third book in Urasawa's manga about human-robot society, a reworking of a section from Tezuka's seminal Tetsuwan Atom which I haven't read yet, to my shame. This is a pretty dark, menacing vision, with the world's most powerful robots hunted down by an even more powerful entity that brutally murders them. It's quite an emotional book, to my mind, and very well done, with great artwork and a very convincing consideration of the robots' natures and minds. Nearly all served in a terrible war some time ago, but have normal roles in society nowadays. In this volume, of them them suggests that all of them (the most advanced robots, I took it to mean) have learnt something of human emotion: some love, some fear, and at least one has learned hatred. Somehow I found that quite effecting. A great book.
Yeah, it's not a lot, despite a week off work. And this was a new book, so not even a dent in the pile.
