Robert Coover’s detective novelette, Street Cop, is set in a dystopian world of infectious ‘living dead,’ murderous robo-cops, aging street walkers, and walking streets. With drawings by Art Spiegelman, this short tale scrutinizes the arc of the American myth, exploring the working of memory in a digital world, police violence and the future of urban life. STREET COP is provocative and prophetic, asking us to interrogate the line between a condemnable system and a sympathetic individual. Fourth issue in Common Era’s series isolarii, “islands from which to view the world anew”.
