The Current Entertainments, by Glen David Gold
Another from the Wired Science Fiction issue. The Current Entertainments is told as a review of a "verite", Lemoin's Assaut Sur L'Univers. It's very well done, with lots of good literary references--reads like a real, culturally aware review. I would aspire to write those at some point, I don't do much of it here. But the story is very much worth reading, it is deep and complex and makes you think. 3 stars
