#ifdefDEBUG + ‘world/enough’ + ‘time’
by Terry Pratchett
in “Digital Dreams” ed. David V. Barrett (New English Library, 1990), pp. 77-93.
Portable reality overlays. Knowledge/reality loss. Humans existing as data/virus. Deliberately murky in the execution? Perhaps somewhat ahead of its time conceptually, but Pratchett rather loses himself in the attempt to present an everyman voice (while still being a bit Pratchett-like and clever!).
