……咱们来补上这个缺：Leigh Brackett 的《The Long Tomorrow》、Connie Willis 的《The Doomsday Book》、Jo Walton 的《Among Others》、Mira Grant 的《Feed》、《饥饿游戏》！N.K. Jemisin 的《The Hundred Thousand Kingdoms》、Sheri S Tepper 的《Grass》、CJ Cherryh 的《Gate of Ivrael》和《Downbelow Station》，还有那部超赞的太空歌剧：Ann Leckie 的《Ancillary Justice》
…Let's fix that: The Long Tomorrow by Leigh Brackett The Doomsday Book by Connie Willis Among Others by Jo Walton Feed by Mira Grant The Hunger Games! The Hundred Thousand Kingdoms by N.K. Jemisin Grass by Sheri S Tepper Gate of Ivrael and Downbelow Station by CJ Cherryh And the fabulous space opera: Ancillary Justice by Ann Leckie
……但看这些评论真挺有意思的，让人思考起“科幻”（science fiction）与“推想小说”（speculative fiction）的区别，还有“科学奇幻”（science fantasy）这个大杂烩类别。不管怎么说，我没看到有人提的一本书是 Sheri Tepper 的《Grass》，https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Grass_(novel)。
…but it's interesting reading all these comments to think about "science fiction" vs. "speculative fiction" and then the lump category of science fantasy. Anyway, one title I didn't see mentioned was Grass by Sheri Tepper, https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Grass_(novel).
……书的大部分内容。班克斯（Banks）的《逆转》（Inversions）是一部“文明”（Culture）系列小说（科幻），如果你不知道“文明”的背景设定，读起来完全就是奇幻小说；要是你知道，就能看出其中的科幻底色。Sheri Tepper 的《Grass》，或者厄休拉·勒古恩（Ursula Le Guin）的《黑暗的左手》（Left Hand of Darkness）也是类似的例子。两者都发生在其他星球上，虽然都有科幻设定，但故事的大部分套路其实更偏向奇幻。弗诺·文奇（Vernor……
…majority of the book. Banks' Inversions is a Culture novel (SF) that intentionally reads as fantasy if you don't know the Culture setting, while leaving the reader to infer the SF setting if you do. "Grass" by Sheri Tepper, or "Left Hand of Darkness" by Ursula Le Guin are other examples. Both happen on other planets, but while both have SF settings, most of the stories fits better into fantasy tropes. Vernor…
……负责此事的组织叫作“特情处”（Special Circumstances）。我觉得另一位非常棒的作者是 Sheri Tepper。http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sheri_S._Tepper 带有女权倾向的科幻小说。代表作有《Grass》和《The Margarets》。如果你想看更辛辣刺激一点的，推荐维克托·佩列温（Victor Pelevin）的任何作品，《恰巴耶夫与虚空》（Buddha's Little Finger）棒极了。
…organization responsible for that is called "Special Circumstances". Another author I find great is Sheri Tepper. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sheri_S._Tepper SciFi with a feminist bent. Examples are Grass / and the Margarets. If you want something more acid, anything by Victor Pelevin. Buddha's little finger is brilliant.
我也来凑个热闹推荐一下。我想推 Sheri S Tepper 的《Grass》。那种新鲜感和原创度在科幻小说里非常少见，人物塑造极其出彩，后劲特别大。虽然它是三部曲的第一部，但单看……
Let me throw my hat in the ring. I'd recommend Grass by Sheri S Tepper. It felt fresh and original in a way few science fiction books are, the characters are really well done and it just stays with you. Despite being the first book of a trilogy, it works…
