About this audiobook
"Made To Measure and Five More Stories" by William Campbell Gault is a captivating anthology that delves into the complexities of human relationships and futuristic dilemmas through six intriguing narratives. In "Made to Measure," Joe, a robotics expert in a futuristic society, attempts to craft the perfect partner, confronting the nuances of love and technology. "I'll See You in My Dreams" blurs reality and fantasy as retired artist Ted Truesdale navigates dreamlike encounters with an alluring neighbor, testing the limits of fidelity and desire. "The Huddlers" follows Venusian reporter Fred Werig on Earth, exploring love and fear amidst the chaos of human society. "The Mighty Dead" presents a dystopian future where literature is banished, and Doak Parker must choose between duty and a hidden literary community. In "Title Fight," android Alix 1340 challenges human supremacy in a boxing ring, sparking debates on identity and equality. Finally, "The Woman Obsession" takes readers on a space adventure with navigator Johnny "Horse" Collins, where the quest for emotional freedom defies a rational galaxy. This anthology expertly weaves themes of science fiction, human emotion, and societal reflection, making it a must-read for fans of speculative fiction. With its exploration of robots, human-alien encounters, censorship, and interplanetary travel, Gault's collection compels readers to reflect on the intersection of humanity and technology, offering timeless stories that resonate with today's world.
