Winner of more Hugo and Nebula Awards than any other science
fiction author, Connie Willis is one of the most powerfully
imaginative writers of our time. In Remake, she explores the
timeless themes of emotion and technology, reality and
illusion, and the bittersweet place where they intersect to
make art.
Remake
It's the Hollywood of the
future, where moviemaking's been computerized and
live-action films are a thing of the past. It's a Hollywood
where Humphrey Bogart and Marilyn Monroe are starring
together in A Star Is Born, and if you don't like the
ending, you can change it with the stroke of a key.
A
Hollywood of warmbodies and sim-sex, of drugs and special
effects, where anything is possible. Except for what one
starry-eyed young woman wants to do: dance in the movies.
It's an impossible dream, but Alis is not willing to give
up. With a little magic and a lot of luck, she just might
get her happy ending after all.
