In un futuro senza l’Uomo… qualcun altro si contenderà il dominio della Terra…

FANTÔMES, FEMMES, ET AUTRES PHANTASMES est une collection complète des nouvelles de Stephen Goldin, contenant la plupart des histoires de sa collection antérieure THE LAST GHOST AND OTHER STORIES. (Les histoires «Angel in Black» ont été publiées dans leur propre volume.) Ces histoires vont de l'humour au pathos, et sont un excellent divertissement.

Герберт Джордж Уэллс считается отцом современной научной фантастики. В «Войне миров» он описал инопланетное вторжение и использование отравляющих газов и лазерного оружия, в «Машине времени» – путешествие в другие эпохи, в «Острове доктора Моро» – создание живых существ. Благодаря ему появились такие понятия как параллельные миры («Люди как боги») и антигравитация («Первые люди на Луне»). Многие идеи Уэллса оказались пророческими – он предсказал создание атомной бомбы. Но самого Уэллса прежде всего интересовали проблемы общества. Одним из его убеждений, неизменно выражаемых во всем его творчестве, было стремление к социальной справедливости и неприятие насилия.

Западное побережье Северной Америки лежит в руинах. Огромное цунами уничтожило миллионы человек, а те, кто уцелел, пострадали от землетрясения. В общем хаосе поначалу мало кто обращает внимание на странную эпидемию, поразившую растительность вдоль берега, и на неожиданно возникший среди беженцев культ Мадонны Разрушения, восставшей после катастрофы из морских глубин. А в диких цифровых джунглях, которые некогда называли Интернетом, что-то огромное и чуждое всему человеческому строит планы на нее, женщину с пустыми белыми глазами и имплантатами в груди. Женщину, которой движет только ярость; женщину, которая несет с собой конец света.
