At the cost of a certain amount of agency, these devices will permit us to move unhindered through time and space, and to live complacent, well-regulated lives. However, when one of these devices goes awry, a \"clockwork man\" appears accidentally in the 1920s, at a cricket match in a small English village. Comical yet mind-blowing hijinks ensue. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eConsidered the first cyborg novel, \u003ci\u003eThe Clockwork Man\u003c\/i\u003e was first published in 1923 -- the same year as Karel Capek's pioneering android play, \u003ci\u003eR.U.R.\u003c\/i\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Edwin Vincent Odle\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1935869639\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781935869634\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Hilobooks\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 09\/03\/2013\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 144\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.39lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 7.40h x 5.00w x 0.50d","brand":"Edwin Vincent Odle","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":43983845097727,"sku":"9781935869634","price":13.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_9dfbe337-22ef-4d8e-a5fd-8bea8846af52.jpg?v=1683269053","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/the-clockwork-man-edwin-vincent-odle-9781935869634","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
