Produktbeschreibung

Wired Love: A Romance of Dots and Dashes is a pioneering work in the genre of early science fiction that explores the intertwining of technology and human connection. Written in 1880, Ella Cheever Thayer's novel is set against the backdrop of a rapidly modernizing America, where telegraphy emerged as a revolutionary form of communication. Thayer skillfully employs a blend of epistolary and narrative techniques, immersing readers in the romantic entanglements of two characters who develop a relationship through telegraphic messages. Through its deft interplay of romance and the implications of technology, Thayer's work critiques the emotional dissonance inherent in mechanized communication, presciently engaging with themes that resonate profoundly in today's digital age. Ella Cheever Thayer was an accomplished author and a notable figure in the literary scene of her time. A strong advocate for women's voices in literature, Thayer'Äôs own experiences with the burgeoning technology of the late 19th century influenced her portrayal of connectivity and isolation in Wired Love. Her background in literature and keen observations of societal changes provided her with a unique lens through which to critique contemporary life, aiming to bridge the gap between human experience and technological advancement. Wired Love invites readers to reflect on the essence of love in a world increasingly dominated by technology. Enthusiasts of historical fiction, science fiction, and those intrigued by the social dynamics of communication will find Thayer's exploration both compelling and relevant. This novel serves not only as an artifact of its time but also as a timeless reminder of the importance of genuine human relationships amidst the clamor of evolving technologies.
