Mirror Bound
Lisa says:
Have you ever thought your reflection might have a life of its own?
(2006) Appears in
Aeon, Issue 9.
Reviews:
"A rather novel point of view, and certainly a way of seeing from the other side of the mirror."
Lois Tilton for IROSF
***
"Mirror Bound" is a highlight, speculating wittily on how thinking, individualized reflections in mirrors might resent and ridicule those who cast them, and how a form of rebellion might occur."
Nick Gevers for Locus
February, 2007
Excerpt:
It's morning again. Ava is getting ready. I'm on call while the shower runs, even though the steam makes it hard to judge my cue. But when she wipes the silver surface, I'm there to mimic every movement.
She bends in closer to study the tiny pimple that surfaced in the night. I have a pimple too now. That's just great. She thinks the same thing.
"Shit," we say. "That's just great."
