In these novels the writers criticize the
modern use of technology that is instead of making the lives of human’s easier,
creating hurdles for them to survive. The consequences of technology in the
society on both novels Super-Toys Last All Summer Long VS. Childhood Ends make
us realize that developments are not always good for the societies; they can be
good for the businesses, science or curiosity but not always good for society
and humanity. These pieces of literature also make the reader realize that the
technological use might be at first seems very elegant and peaceful, but in the
longer run, it can create conflicts in the society.
The novels Super-Toys Last All Summer
Long VS. Childhood Ends mainly focus on two terms that are very vague in the
society for example, robots vs. humans it is difficult in the novel Super-Toys
Last All Summer Long to really find any difference between them physically and
emotionally and it is not only creating problem for the humans to get attached
with these robots in the form of their children and friend but it is also very disturbing
that robots also have the same feeling as humans.
On the other side, in the Childhood
Ends, the power extracting from humans by the aliens is depicted, and at times
in this novel, some readers can also connect the aliens with the elite groups,
who are always n extracting the power and assets from the societies to sustain
their power and wealth. The aliens in
this novel can also be linked with the advanced technology that seems to
control the humans in various aspects of life, and it can be seen that the
technology is governing the humans and rather than becoming the servant of mankind
it is becoming the master of our destiny.
