Produktbeschreibung
Ella Cheever Thayer's 'Wired Love' is a groundbreaking work of early science fiction that explores the possibilities and pitfalls of technology in relationships. Written in the late 19th century, the novel follows the correspondence between two telegraph operators who fall in love without ever meeting in person. Thayer's use of the epistolary form and focus on the theme of communication in the digital age foreshadowed modern concerns about online relationships and authenticity. The novel is a captivating blend of romance and social commentary that remains relevant today. Ella Cheever Thayer was a trailblazing writer and telegraph operator herself, which undoubtedly influenced her choice to write 'Wired Love'. Her background in technology and her own experiences with communication systems give the novel a sense of authenticity and depth. Thayer's unique perspective as a woman working in a male-dominated field adds a layer of complexity to the narrative and offers insights into the challenges facing women in the 19th century. I highly recommend 'Wired Love' to readers interested in the intersection of technology and romance, as well as those intrigued by the history of early science fiction. Thayer's innovative approach to the genre and her nuanced exploration of human connection make this novel a fascinating and thought-provoking read.
