Produktbeschreibung

You Human, is in three parts, Prologue, Leander Chronicle, and Epilogue. Prologue and Epilogue are told by the randy poet Farley Judd. He is also the Director of Communication on his Station. Free of any sexual hypocrisies himself, he tells of other station inhabitants sexual obsessions with his Talker. Talkers are telepaths in instant communication with all throughout Space. The result of interbreeding with the Nautili, Talkers male and female have long sinuous bodies and very short legs. Misused and abused, the Talkers start to disappear, leading to disruption throughout Space. Farley Judd goes in search of them, eventually discovers the Leander Chronicle, which tells of Talkers' resentments and fears of humankind, and of their determination to live a life independent of both humans and Nautili. The Epilogue tells of what Farley Judd did with the Chronicle, the whole being a consideration of love, sex, and hatred.
Review by Anthony Lund: "You Human : The Leander Chronicle takes quite a different tone to the previous stories. The main bulk of the book is the Leander Chronicle of the title, which reads very much as it sounds, like a documented account of the events of a time past. The Chronicle centres on Talkers, telepathic beings that are descendants of the Nautili, which we have been acquainted with before. In the Chronicle we learn much about the feelings of the Talkers towards humans who they somewhat rely on to live, and their desires to be free and independent from all other species. Bookending the Chronicle are writings of Farley Judd, who muses on sex and love and was the person who discovered the chronicle. A slower story from its predecessors, but intriguing and informative in the continuation of this series, You Human is a personal and emotional story which develops the core beings of series in a very different way to the previous novels."
