Inconceivable

Производитель: "Неизвестный"

Sam and Lucy seem like the perfect couple. Successful, happy and in love. But life isn`t that simple. Lucy thinks thinks Sam is a sad, cold sensitivity-exclusion zone who would rather read a newspaper than have an emotion. Sam thinks Lucy is blaming him because she can`t walk past Mothercare without getting all teary. The problem is that they might be infertile. And in more ways than one. Lucy wants a baby. Sam wants to write a hit movie. And given that the average IVF cycle has about a one in five chance of going into full production, Lucy`s chances of getting what she wants are considerably better than Sam`s. What Sam and Lucy are about to go through is absolutely inconceivable. The question is, can their love survive? Or are the odds stacked against them once again? ISBN:9780552146982

ELTON, Ben

   Working name of UK tv comedian, playwright and novelist Benjamin Charles Elton (1959-), well known for the contumely of his stand-up verbal SATIRE. His first sf novel, Stark (1989), is set in a NEAR FUTURE Australia threatened by a typical late-20th-century entrepreneur, and by the END OF THE WORLD through POLLUTION, which the industrialists responsible hope to evade by leaving the planet to its victims - us. In "Gasping: the Play" (1990), a UK corporation, after oxygen is privatized, sells "designer air." Gridlock (1991) less successfully dramatizes a sudden UK-wide traffic jam; This Other Eden (1993), also set in the near future, tends to recapitulate earlier themes.
