這是我這兩年來讀的書裡面最好看的一本。劉宇昆:《摺紙動物園》。 最早知道他的原因是他擔任兩個書的中翻英翻譯《三體》與《北京折疊》。有關注中文科幻的人,就知道這兩本的英譯本分別在 2015 和 2016 年獲得雨果獎(科幻文學類的世界級獎項)。當然原本沒有抱太大的期待,只...
評分红头发蓝眼睛的Lily问留着长辫的老关:are you going to stay here or go back to China? 老关说: I am going home. And this is my home. This is where I have finally found all the flavors of the world, all the sweetness and bitterness, all the whiskey and sorghum ...
評分我喜欢KenLiu把古老的神话和科幻情节混在一起。在没有因特网的漫长历史中,在大多数人都不会读书写字的社会中,人们通过讲故事来告诉他们的后代,他们的喜怒哀乐、他们的价值观念、他们对于生死的期待。那些故事,是我们的祖先留给我们的log。仔细解读这些log,也许我们能发现...

評分喜歡state change, simulacrum, the regular, the man who ended history。二代移民的故事無感。基於中國文化、神話的很大篇幅過分簡化、直白,像沒有內涵的那種兒童文學。不知道語種的原因占多少,但劉宇昆寫齣來的真的太不像瞭。兩星因為實在太喜歡《愛的算法》,覺得這本一定要看完,耐心消耗光瞭。

评分生病請瞭三天假。上一次這麼長時間地脫離現實還是大三時候住院。晚上讀瞭The Paper Menagerie,想起瞭當年收到的《病隙小郵》。人生仿佛虛構無端,總是充滿瞭好多的來不及,卻又漫幻不可知。 #病人容易情緒起伏

评分想象力揉雜著中國傳統文化元素,行文濕潤、傷感又溫柔。《The Paper Menagerie》直戳淚點。
