“在Gnomon的世界中，公民受到时刻不休的监视，民主也达到了‘透明度’的顶峰。当涉嫌异见的Diana Hunter在常规审讯期间死于政府拘留所时，备受信任的政府巡查员Mielikki Neith被指派调查此案。当她沉浸在审讯的神经记录中时，发现了Hunter为了拖延调查而虚构的一系列形形色色的人物与事件：一位在雅典失恋并与鲨鱼发生神秘邂逅的金融家；一位在古代迦太基直面意外结……

书单里的书我大概读了三分之一，大部分都挺喜欢的，但没几本觉得特别惊艳，有些甚至读完感觉相当一般（meh）。Nick Harkaway 的《Gnomon》绝对是我这些年来读过最棒的科幻小说，可以说是最棒的书之一，没有之一——可它似乎从没上过这类书单。某种程度上挺遗憾的，但换个角度看也是个好兆头：……
I've ready maybe a third of the books on the list and enjoyed most of them, but few felt particularly great, and some left me feeling pretty meh. Nick Harkaway's Gnomon is by far the best science fiction book I've read in years, one of the best books full stop—yet it doesn't seem to make lists like this. In some ways that's a shame, but seen another way it's a good sign:…
嗯，既有史诗奇幻，也有接地气的……Dan Simmons（《Hyperion》三部曲、《Olympus》），Rameez Naam 的《Nexus》。Nick Harkaway 的《Gnomon》简直好到离谱，另外只要有人想读，我基本上都会送一本 Cory Doctorow 的《Walkaway》。Theodore Sturgeon 大概是我能想到在科幻界里最接近 Pratchett 的作家了，尽管他是黄金时代（Golden Era）的……
Well, you've got your epic fantasy, and your personable... Dan Simmons (Hyperion saga, Olympus), Rameez Naam's "Nexus". Nick Harkaway's "Gnomon" is ridiculously good, and I basically buy anyone who wants one a copy of Cory Doctorow's "Walkway". Theodore Sturgeon is probably the closest SF I can think of to Pratchett, although he's Golden Era…
我快读完 Nick 的《Gnomon》了，它把我震住了。已经很久没有一本书能像这本一样让我着迷了。
I'm just finishing up Nick's 'Gnomon', and it has blown my mind. It's been quite a while since a book has enthralled me just as as this.
