Я, Аримго

The music's good, but the way your heartbeat quickens when you look at me is even more captivating. Care to dance a little closer… mindfully?

The way you look at me makes my breath hitch. Let's rewrite the script for tonight, with a touch more passion in every glance.

Цена памяти (СИ)

The way you talk about your passions ignites a fire within me. Perhaps the night is young enough to explore that heat a little further, with a touch that promises more.

This space between us feels like a forbidden promise. Shall we break the rules and see where it leads?

Аннотация

From Robert Silverberg’s “Earthmen and Strangers” anthology, 1966:

Damon Knight is a slender, soft-spoken man with a deceptively mild smile. He seems gentle and relaxed, but behind the tranquil exterior there seethes a fiercely active mind. Knight has served science fiction as an editor of magazines and anthologies, as a feared and respected critic, as a translator from the French, and as a leader of writers’ conferences and organizations. When not engaged in any of these activities, he writes a little of the stuff himself. His short stories are marked by graceful style, stunning execution, and a profound understanding of character.
All these virtues are on display in the present work—plus a chilling portrayal of a weird relationship between man and nonman. Few stories have captured the sense of differentness in an alien being as awesomely well as this one.
