The Product by Bruce Memblatt

A long time ago, I used to hate short stories. I felt they were a rip-off, because I felt cut off. Just as it seemed the story should have truly taken off, it was over. It used to make me mad; I kid you not. For years, I didn't purchase short stories, but that didn't happen with this awesome tale!
The Product, by Bruce Memblatt, was creepy! It told of Robin, a woman torn at the loss of her boyfriend. Though they weren't a long-term couple, Robin shared how deeply in love she was with Shane. She loved everything about him and let the man of a company (DMG) that she wanted him back. She explained how her life was meaningless without the love of her life. So, with DNA belonging to Shane, a new Shane was made. A machine, a replica and an illusion.
The Product was a sharing of what could result from our selfishness, in a time where letting go is viewed as a life-sentence. The Product was written well and kept me engaged. I felt bad for both Robin and Shane but also fearful, because nothing was going right!
I loved this read, and will most definitely look for more by Memblatt!
