So when he reached up to his ear and turned off the interface for the first timesince he had implanted it, Jane did not feel it as the meaningless switch-off of atrivial communications device. She felt it as her dearest and only friend, herlover, her husband, her brother, her father, her child-- all telling her, abruptly,inexplicably, that she should cease to exist. It was as if she had suddenly beenplaced in a dark room with no windows and no door. As if she had been blindedor buried alive.
