Born of Man and Woman,
By Philip Hemsarth (Millville, Pa USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Born of Man and Woman (Hardcover)
Richard Matheson is an incredable author. He has writen many great stories. One of these was Born of Man and Woman. He was noted by Stephen King as the author who influenced him the most as a writer. Ray Bradbury said that he is one of the most important authors of the 20th century. The short story, Born of Man and Woman, is one of his less popular works but certainly one of his greatest. In the Science-Fiction genre it is very mysterious as it depicts a young child who is abused severly and he does not know what it is like to be a child. This child has been locked up in a basement and has been chained to the wall. The child has been treated like they were an animal. It gives a brief look into the every day life that the child has to go through. At the end the child indicates that there is going to be revenge taken. The child seems disabled with severe psychological problems and he seems deranged. That is what makes the piece of work a Science Fiction that will go far.
