吉恩·沃尔夫。整个“太阳系周期”（《新日之书》、《新日之厄斯》、《长日之书》、《短日之书》），还有《地狱犬的第五个头颅》（Fifth Head of Cerberus）、《和平》（Peace）、《门无处不在》（There Are Doors）、《巫师之屋》（The Sorcerer's House）……沃尔夫简直是个天才。在那之前我还把《玛拉赞》（Malazan）给读完了。
Gene Wolfe. The whole Solar Cycle (The Book of the New Sun, Urth of The New Sun, The Book of The Long Sun, The Book of The Short Sun), Fifth Head of Cerberus, Peace, There Are Doors, The Sorcerer's House ... . Wolfe is a genius. Before that I also finished Malazan.
…New Sun. I've already read it 6-ish times, with a different interpretation every time, and I have every reason to believe that would continue indefinitely. I would say The Book of the Long Sun and The Book of the Short Sun, since I like them better, but there's no way to justify calling them one book when, even in fiction, they're 2 different books. > (Feel free to substitute “the next 10 years“ for “the rest of your life“.)…
…completely figured out. Not to mention some cringeworthy stylistic choices and concerns of the late books, like putting the speech of characters on a distant planet into 20th-century ethnic stereotypes (The Book of the Short Sun) or old-man rants about modern society (Pirate Freedom).

……《新日》。我已经读了大概6遍了，每次都有不同的解读，而且我完全相信这种体验可以无限持续下去。我想说《长日之书》和《短日之书》，因为我更喜欢它们，但无论如何也没法把它们算成一本书，即便在虚构小说里，它们也是两本完全不同的书。>（你可以随意把“后半生”替换成“未来10年”。）……

《短日之书》把不可靠叙述者这一套玩到了极致（turned up to 11）。
The Book of the Short Sun takes unreliable narrators to 11
……完全被摸透了。更不用说晚期作品里那些让人尴尬的文风选择和题材考量了，比如把遥远星球上角色的说话方式写得像20世纪的种族刻板印象（《短日之书》），或者老头子对现代社会的牢骚抱怨（《海盗自由》）。作为一个靠早期作品入坑、之后狂热扫荡了他所有书的读者，那种渐渐涌上心头的失望感真是……
