Childhood's End arrived yesterday (I got it after an emphatic recommendation, which I haven't regretted taking to heart), and I spent most of today reading. This is powerful stuff.

I'm not through yet, though the end is not far off. So far, the most moving quote was this:

What you will have brought into the world may be utterly alien, it may share none of your desires or hopes, it may look upon your greatest achievements as childish toys - yet it is something wonderful, and you will have created it.
