为什么值得读

  • 善意讽刺了旧金山当代的科技与生活文化
  • 构想奇特且将面包烘焙与高科技奇妙融合
  • 故事轻快有趣展现了湾区乐观的城市底色

Lois Clary是旧金山一家胸怀改变世界野心的机器人公司General Dexterity的软件工程师。她整日敲代码,夜晚倒头就睡,人际交往仅限于每晚订晚餐的那家街角小吃店的兄弟俩。然而,灾难降临!签证出了问题。兄弟俩不得不迅速关门停业。但在离开前,他们给Lois送来了最后一份外卖:他们的酵母菌种,也就是用来烘焙面包的酸酵面头。他们告诉她,她必须让它活下去;每天喂养它,给它放音乐,并学会用它来烘焙。Lois并不是个烘焙师,但她确实需要一个……

Hacker News 上怎么说

  • 这里似乎很适合安利一下 Robin Sloan 的《酸种面包》(Sourdough: A Novel,他之前还写过《彭伯鲁先生的24小时书店》)。读起来真的非常畅快,既深情地讽刺了旧金山当代文化的方方面面,又讲述了……

    This seems like an appropriate place to plug Sourdough: A Novel, by Robin Sloan (who also wrote Mr. Penumbra’s 24-Hour Bookstore). It's a really delightful read that lovingly satirizes many aspects of San Francisco's contemporary culture while telling the…

  • 几个月前我读了 Robin Sloan 的《酸种面包》(Sourdough)。你的这个故事让我想起了它!你可能会喜欢读读看——以旧金山为背景,把科技和面包奇妙而有趣地融合在了一起。https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/33916024-sourdough

    I read the book Sourdough by Robin Sloan a few months back. Your anecdote reminds me of it! You might enjoy reading it -- it's a fun/quirky mix of technology and bread, set in SF. https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/33916024-sourdough

  • ……大家都把注意力放在各自的相关经历上,但我能不能单纯推荐大家平时多关注一下 Robin Sloan 这个人?他的两部长篇小说《彭伯鲁先生的24小时书店》和《酸种面包》都非常抓人。他的第三部长篇正在创作中,看起来品质也会一如既往。他还写过几部中篇和一大堆非常棒的短篇小说(其中一些……

    …is focused on everyone's own experience with this, but can I just recommend Robin Sloan as a human in general for folks to follow in their lives? His 2 novels, "Mr. Penumbra's 24 Hour Bookstore" and "Sourdough", are both really engaging reads. His 3rd novel is in progress and it seems like it's going to be more of the same quality. He also has a couple of novellas and a bunch of great short stories (some of…

  • 一个正面的例子是:Robin Sloan 笔下的旧金山一贯充满乐观色彩,无论是在《彭伯鲁先生的24小时书店》还是在他的新小说《酸种面包》里都是如此。

    One example in the positive column: Robin Sloan has consistently written optimistically about SF, both in Mr. Penumbra's 24 Hour Bookstore, and his new novel, Sourdough.

  • 要是有人对这个感兴趣,而且想找一本好看的虚构类短篇读物,去读读 Robin Sloan 的《酸种面包》(Sourdough)吧。这是一个以湾区为背景的趣味小故事,讲的是一个人把做面包当成了爱好,接着事情开始变得离奇古怪起来。

    Anyone that’s interested in this and looking for a good short fiction read, pick up Sourdough by Robin Sloan. It’s a fun little tale set in the Bay Area about someone who picks up bread making as a hobby and things get weird.

  • ……我个人非常喜欢的作者包括 David Mitchell(《千秋之秋》或《骨钟》YYDS)、Cory Doctorow(《造物者》《大走开》)、Blake Crouch(《递归》)、Daniel Suarez(《涌入》《第二宇宙速度》《守护程序》)、Robin Sloan(《酸种面包》《彭伯鲁先生的24小时书店》)。最后总结一下,也顺便复读一下帖子里肯定有人提过的话:虚构文学尤其是通往同理心和想象力的大门。阅读就像锻炼肌肉;……

    …happen to enjoy very much include David Mitchell (Thousand Autumns or Bone Clocks FTW), Cory Doctorow (Makers, Walkaway), Blake Crouch (Recursion), Daniel Suarez (Influx, Delta-V, Daemon), Robin Sloan (Sourdough, Mr. Penumbra's 24-hour Bookstore). Just to wrap up and repeat what has no doubt been said elsewhere in the thread, fiction in particular is the gateway to empathy and imagination. Reading is a muscle;…
