2020 Vision
2020 Vision is a collection of sci-fi short stories written roughly during the mid-70’s which were then compiled together in 1980. When I bought the book, I had thought it would be fun to close out the year with a light-hearted review of the whole collection or possibly just one of its better pieces. I had hoped to make note of particularly poignant or striking predictions that had been posited about our potential future, and to possibly compare and contrast the expectations put forth by the different contributors. As with much of the year 2020 however, things didn’t quite go according to plan. Having little desire to retrospect too long to my experiences with either, I think I’ll just give a short review for both of them together and leave it at that.
