…Here's a few of mine that really stand out. Factfulness, by Hans Rosling The Ethics of Ambiguity, by Simone de Beauvoir Designing Delivery, by Jeff Sussna (re-read) The Cooking Gene, by Michael Twitty Binti, by Nnedi Okorafor The Philosophy of Spinoza The Silk Roads, by Peter Frankopan
…(So We Can Get Back), by Jeff Tweedy. An autobiography by the Wilco frontman, talking about a lot of stuff I find intensely interesting - depression, being a bandleader, and being a parent and husband. Binti, by Nnedi Okorafor. An outstanding science fiction novella from an entirely different perspective - an African future. The Ethics of Ambiguity, by Simone de Beauvoir. A mid-century philosophy classic,…
This year was a year in which, along with everything else, I read a number of standout scifi trilogies: --- Binti by Nnedi Okorafor (African girl goes to space, becomes a unifying force in the galaxy) - Binti - Binti: Home - Binti: The Night Masquerade --- Remembrance of Earth's Past by Liu Cixin (Humans make…
There is Nnedi Okorafor - Binti, which I enjoyed (a series of three novellas, so fairly short overall). There's quite a lot of interesting African sci-fi around at the moment, usually feels quite different from the usual western fare.
在最近的获奖者中,我非常喜欢《This Is How You Lose The Time War》以及《Binti》(这是三部曲,但合并起来有长篇小说的长度)。Becky Chambers 最近的中篇小说《To Be Taught, if Fortunate》在我看来是一大进步,而且对太空探索的看法更乌托邦(不那么……
Of recent laureates I really loved This Is How you Lose The Time War as well as Binti (this is a trilogy, but combined form something novel-length). Becky Chambers's recent novella To Be Taught, if Fortunate was a major step up imo, and the more utopian view of space exploration (less…
……这里列几本我自己觉得特别出彩的。《事实》,汉斯·罗斯林著;《模糊性的伦理》,西蒙娜·德·波伏娃著;《设计交付》,杰夫·苏斯纳著(重读);《烹饪基因》,迈克尔·特维蒂著;《宾蒂》,奈迪·奥科拉福著;《斯宾诺莎的哲学》;《丝绸之路》,彼得·弗兰科潘著。

……(《这样我们就能回去》),威尔可合唱团主唱杰夫·Tweedy的自传,谈了很多我觉得极度感兴趣的内容——抑郁症、当乐队领队、以及为人父母和丈夫的经历。《宾蒂》,奈迪·奥科拉福著。一部极为出色的科幻中篇,来自一个截然不同的视角——非洲的未来。《模糊性的伦理》,西蒙娜·德·波伏娃著。一部20世纪中叶的哲学经典,……

今年我在读其他东西的同时,还读了几部非常出彩的科幻三部曲:--- 奈迪·奥科拉福的《宾蒂》(非洲女孩走向太空,成为银河系的一股统合力量)- 《宾蒂》- 《宾蒂:归家》- 《宾蒂:夜间化妆舞会》--- 刘慈欣的《地球往事》(人类做出……

奈迪·奥科拉福的《宾蒂》https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Binti_(novella)
Binti by Nnedi Okorafor https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Binti_(novella)
有奈迪·奥科拉福的《宾蒂》,我读着挺喜欢的(三部中篇系列,所以整体相当短)。目前市面上有不少有趣的非洲科幻作品,通常感觉和西方常见的套路很不一样。
