Britain has lost the Falklands war, Margaret Thatcher battles Tony Benn for power and Alan Turing achieves a breakthrough in artificial intelligence. In a world not quite like this one, two lovers will be tested beyond their understanding.
Machines Like Me occurs in an alternative 1980s London. Charlie, drifting through life and dodging full-time employment, is in love with Miranda, a bright student who lives with a terrible secret. When Charlie comes into money, he buys Adam, one of the first batch of synthetic humans. With Miranda’s assistance, he co-designs Adam’s personality. This near-perfect human is beautiful, strong and clever – a love triangle soon forms. These three beings will confront a profound moral dilemma. Ian McEwan’s subversive and entertaining new novel poses fundamental questions: what makes us human? Our outward deeds or our inner lives? Could a machine understand the human heart? This provocative and thrilling tale warns of the power to invent things beyond our control.

Ian McEwan’s command of the English language and his skills for storytelling still shines through in this latest novel. However there are just a few too many issues and themes this story tries to cover (as the Guardian review also notes) - consciousness, t...

不是很開心的閱讀體驗。。。一開始蠻有意思，從機器人和女友上床後就開始沒勁瞭。核心問題其實也是很多作品都討論過的，what makes us human？但好像尚未有確切答案
评分Adam最後一次外齣，徹夜未歸，迴來後還怪怪的。Charlie一看新聞，發現首相被炸。。。看到此處，我還以為Adam去玩瞭票大的，哈哈哈
评分R4 read by Anton Lesser.
评分前半本極好，後半本略遜，但還是麥剋尤恩。
评分一個設計為良善正直的機器人如何在一萬種灰的人類世界裏生存而不最後瘋掉。McEvan最擅長描寫這種掙紮與兩難睏境。
