Editor's Note:
Kirkus Review of Heart & BrainStimulating, cerebral SF that finds fertile ground in its modern and future India setting.In five SF short stories, Indian author MLV depicts how various characters react when confronted with cosmic wonders and cosmological enigmas.In the opening tale, “The Sphere,” the narrator, Chaitanya, who fancies himself “the world’s first AI psychologist,” induces neuroses into an artificial-intelligence entity to make it more controllable. However, his own dread of inheriting his father’s debilitating agoraphobia ultimately overwhelms him. In “The Random Factor,” a utopian future society’s complacent power structure faces a crisis when a woman named Pratima decides to conceive and give birth naturally, instead of by long-accepted biotechnological means. In “Survival,” a particle beam’s collision with Earth leaves all humanity susceptible to fatal sleep apnea, except for Mallika, an expectant mother in rural India. A somewhat similar premise begins “The Speck,” in which a distant object is observed and recorded solely by recently widowed astronomer Animisha, who’s recently had advanced surgery to correct her eyesight. The mystery deepens when she finds its fluctuations through time corresponding with milestones in her own life—usually painful ones. In “The Replay,” a demonstration of a variation on virtual reality, dubbed UR, for “ultimate reality,” is used by its orphaned Sikh developer in a revenge scheme. This worthy collection features stories that engagingly tackle themes of ethics, responsibility, and the subjugation of women. Overall, they have a deeply intellectual and science-struck quality of the sort that occurs when a distinctly scientific mind turns to fiction; it’s a dynamic that calls to mind Carl Sagan’s work in his bestselling novel Contact (1985). The book’s length is as efficient as a paperback from SF’s Golden Age, and its stories, featuring Indian characters and locales, intriguingly recall the fiction of Hugo Gernsback and Astounding Stories.Diane Donovan, Senior Reviewer, Midwest Book reviewRao provides a story that is as thought-provoking as it is emotionally compelling... Rao's attention to diversity and detail offers an intellectual and emotional discourse and cultural connections rare in the sci-fi world.Heart & Brain: A Sci-Fi Anthology That Connects Both! also comes with the added value of connecting the Indian heart, brain, and culture to the sci-fi world. This is perhaps the collection's greatest strength, and ... it's a major feature of the collection's unique approach and stories. Crafting works that pull at heart and intellect is a fine art that Ramana Rao employs with special skill. Each tale in this five-story anthology is designed to play on emotions while encouraging readers to think and learn about scenarios that evolve inspiration, aspiration, and strange situations.
