罗伯特·查尔斯·威尔森(Robert Charles Wilson),近年来最重要的加拿大科幻作家之一,自从长篇小说《隐匿之地》(A Hidden Place)入围菲利普·迪克奖之后,便逐渐确立起自己在科幻文坛的地位。他曾获得过四次雨果奖提名和一次星云奖提名,《时间回旋》夺得2006年雨果奖最佳长篇小说。
One night in October when he was ten years old, Tyler Dupree stood in his back yard and watched the stars go out. They all flared into brilliance at once, then disappeared, replaced by a flat, empty black barrier. He and his best friends, Jason and Diane Lawton, had seen what became known as the Big Blackout. It would shape their lives. The effect is worldwide. The sun is now a featureless disk--a heat source, rather than an astronomical object. The moon is gone, but tides remain. Not only have the world's artificial satellites fallen out of orbit, their recovered remains are pitted and aged, as though they'd been in space far longer than their known lifespans. As Tyler, Jason, and Diane grow up, space probe reveals a bizarre truth: The barrier is artificial, generated by huge alien artifacts. Time is passing faster outside the barrier than inside--more than a hundred million years per day on Earth. At this rate, the death throes of the sun are only about forty years in our future. Jason, now a promising young scientist, devotes his life to working against this slow-moving apocalypse. Diane throws herself into hedonism, marrying a sinister cult leader who's forged a new religion out of the fears of the masses. Earth sends terraforming machines to Mars to let the onrush of time do its work, turning the planet green. Next they send humans....and immediately get back an emissary with thousands of years of stories to tell about the settling of Mars. Then Earth's probes reveal that an identical barrier has appeared around Mars. Jason, desperate, seeds near space with self-replicating machines that will scatter copies of themselves outward from the sun--and report back on what they find. Life on Earth is about to get much, much stranger. Wilson has become one of the most exciting talents in SF todayIn Spin, he outdoes himself, juggling numerous philosophical, moral and scientific ideas, including a fascinating Martian civilization created by humans, but he never neglects the emotional underpinnings of what the Spin comes to mean to humanitySpin to paraphrase Bogie, is the stuff that (SF) dreams are made of. -- The Globe and Mail "Like most of Wilson's books, Spin is an intelligent and inventive page-turner, with compelling characters and enough surprises to keep readers guessing right to the end. I recommend it highly." -- The Times-Colonist
忽然兴起想写个年度的读书报告给自己。 第一本想起的,竟然就是《时间回旋》。 《时间回旋》大概是我看的第一本科幻小说吧——所以看得时候,一惊一乍,被威尔逊的想象力惊奇的无以复加。地球外面的黑色的保护膜,被培养的火星人,穿越时空的弧形大门,世界末日...
评分我小时候就一直在想, 如果在我的脚趾头缝里面的一颗灰尘里面, 还有另外一个世界, 当然那里的人都特别的小, 但是他们的动作都特别快, 吃饭睡觉起床大便OOXX的速度都是我的一百万倍。 也就是我过了一天, 相当于他们已经过了一百万天了, 当然那他们也活不了一百万天, 估计...
评分这是最好的年代,同时也是最坏的年代。 有关《時間迴旋》这部小说如果拓展开去,实在有太多东西可说,但是那些启发与感悟又显得很零碎,零碎的散落在这部结构庞大的小说的字里行间,难以捕捉到实际的形体,难以一一梳理清晰,却又明确知道真实存在,如同作品中的假想智慧生物...
评分这个周末,看了两本书,《时间回旋》和《耶稣泥板圣经之谜》,后者的题目实在是一个败笔,故事还好。 我喜欢有想象力的故事,我常常想,人的想象力是因为恐惧。安全感是个篱笆,建起了篱笆就可以安睡,可是即使有了门和窗,也会有看不到的风景,即使是在篱笆内,也有清扫不到...
评分这本书我读得很慢,感觉作者的文笔只能算一般,还谈不上有什么很高的文学性. 整个故事的发展四平八稳,波澜不惊,原以为到结尾处会有惊喜,结果还是失望了. 与大部分探讨人类终极命运的科幻小说一样,这本书里没有什么真正的"人物",女性角色写的尤其失败,还不如一开始就不设黛安这个...
