The Girl Who Was Plugged In/Screwtop - intriguing: back-to-back/front double novel publication.

Wondering: if this is voted final, do we read/discuss just one or both novels together?

If just one, which?
ie.
(which won the 1974 Hugo Award for Best Novella) / /book/show/2...
less info on Screwtop.

A more recent book, so gotta find/get it offline.

I was particularly interested in "The Girl Who Was Plugged In" (). I let some infos on the bookshelf : This story was used to be experimented as a "sensory fiction" via a wearable device . I'm curious to know why. The story comes with some themes like feminist science fiction, role of celebrities & media
