Britain has lost the Falklands war, Margaret Thatcher battles Tony Benn for power and Alan Turing achieves a breakthrough in artificial intelligence. In a world not quite like this one, two lovers will be tested beyond their understanding.
Machines Like Me occurs in an alternative 1980s London. Charlie, drifting through life and dodging full-time employment, is in love with Miranda, a bright student who lives with a terrible secret. When Charlie comes into money, he buys Adam, one of the first batch of synthetic humans. With Miranda’s assistance, he co-designs Adam’s personality. This near-perfect human is beautiful, strong and clever – a love triangle soon forms. These three beings will confront a profound moral dilemma. Ian McEwan’s subversive and entertaining new novel poses fundamental questions: what makes us human? Our outward deeds or our inner lives? Could a machine understand the human heart? This provocative and thrilling tale warns of the power to invent things beyond our control.

平行八十年代读来莫名有趣 读到A-and-Es集体意识自毁时只能叹一口气 或许人类情感的复杂多变捉摸不定已经不能简化成纯粹的形式了 总是忍不住觉得每个人物都很可疑 不得不说文学的未来植根于俳句似乎无法反驳哈哈!
评分麦克尤恩去年出版的新小说( 疑惑为何迟迟未出中文版。内容聚焦上世纪阿兰图灵的时代，叙述人与AI共生的选择，同时夹杂大量对英国社会的思考、对脱欧的影射。时空倒置，以及麦克尤恩拒绝承认这是一本科幻，倒让整本小说有了一种“the past is extinct”的怀旧感。另外语言上不愧是老写手了，措辞风格都很特别。
评分前半本极好，后半本略逊，但还是麦克尤恩。
评分Adam最后一次外出，彻夜未归，回来后还怪怪的。Charlie一看新闻，发现首相被炸。。。看到此处，我还以为Adam去玩了票大的，哈哈哈
评分麦老师新著，去年上海见面会上提到过的科幻题材。会不会像石黑一雄的 Never Let me go O(∩_∩)O哈哈~。看了两章，有点小失望哦，不如never let me go的行云流水。就看麦老师后面怎么翻盘吧。麦老师如此恋恋于他的八十年代 (^o^)/
