Description

Joe Haldeman - The Coming - Unb

Read by: Joe Fox

Runtime: 7 Hours and 24 Minutes









The story begins on October 1, 2054. Aurora (Rory) Bell, a professor of astrophysics at the University of Florida, has
just made the discovery of the century. A sophisticated sensing device called a gamma ray burst detector has picked up a
message from somewhere beyond the solar system. The easily decrypted message contains two unambiguous words: We're
coming. Subsequent analysis reveals that the source of the message is heading directly toward Earth and is scheduled to
arrive on the first day of January 2055. A media circus inevitably ensues, as the citizens of Earth attempt to prepare
for a wholly unprecedented event.



From this point forward, Haldeman focuses not on the alien spaceship but on the social, political, and environmental
conditions of a rapidly deteriorating planet. He envisions a 21st century marked by unpredictable weather patterns and
geopolitical chaos, a world in which corruption is an endemic element both of private enterprises and governmental
institutions. Controversial -- i.e., gay -- sexual practices have been outlawed. The electoral process has become a
joke, ushering in a new generation of leaders who are incompetent and uninformed but intensely photogenic. Most
significantly, the nations of Europe are flexing their muscles once again, marshaling their forces for an inevitable --
and catastrophic -- global conflict. 



Haldeman's portrait of the century to come is at once familiar and strange, enlivened by a steady flow of imaginative
details: automated traffic control systems, virtual reality pornography, designer drugs tailored to the individual DNA.
Haldeman shows us this world from the constantly shifting perspective of a variety of characters. Included among them
are Rory Bell, whose initial discovery jump-starts the narrative; Norman Bell, a middle-aged composer with a history of
"illegal" sexual behavior; Willie Joe Capra, a sadistic bagman with delusions of grandeur; and a nameless
"historian," whose ruminations illuminate the cyclical patterns of violence present throughout recorded
history.



As always, Haldeman writes with clarity, economy, and wit, skillfully moving his extensive cast toward a climactic
moment of revelation in which "hope and caution" predominate. The Coming is both a provocative, cleverly
conceived entertainment and a compelling meditation on the eternal human propensity for violent solutions. It is
speculative fiction of the highest order and reaffirms its author's position as a modern master of the form.
