Please join us for our next chat in #readers_corner at 8:30 P.M. (EDST) on October 29th, 2016 [00:30 A.M. (GMT), October 30th], for a discussion of the story The Heart-Beat Escapement by Rachael Acks.  I have had very little exposure to and have never quite understood the "Steampunk" phenomenon.  In retrospect, while doing my due diligence on this weeks selection, I learned that number of films which I have enjoyed fall into that category (most notably Hugo, a movie which I loved and of which this story reminds me).  While the story might fall into the genre of Science Fiction or perhaps Fantasy, the theme deals more with love, respect, and parental responsibilities.  

 

This story was published on line in the November 2016 on line edition of Crossed Genres magazine (unfortunately the magazine went out of business after its December 2016 edition.)  It's available at:  http://crossedgenres.com/magazine/016-the-heart-beat-escapement/
