After watching a review of –All You Zombies–, a short story published in 1959 by Robert Heinlein, I found an online copy and read it. It’s about 9 pages long – an easy read. Here’s another audio version on YouTube.
In essence, it’s a story of self-discovery masquerading as time-travel sci-fi. I found the premise of the short story to be better than the execution. Despite decent reception and reviews, I didn’t really like the movie. Full disclosure: I don’t tend to like many movies or television, so consider the source. The script and acting felt contrived and wooden. I feel it could have been done better. The direction didn’t help. Even so, it’s only about an hour and a half, so it could have been worse.
The Hooters released a song named All You Zombies in 1983, though with a different theme.
Mainly, I’ve been working on academic nonfiction, so I felt it was time to post something here, especially since my last (but yet to be published) project involved a manner of time travel as well.
