你可能会喜欢唐·德里罗（Don DeLillo）写的《Zero K》，这本书大致就是讲人体冷冻休眠的。
You might enjoy Zero K, a Don DeLillo book that is more or less about cryogenic suspension.
对这类东西、或者对那种“把你的遗体保存起来并在未来某个时间让你复活”的技术感兴趣的人，我推荐唐·德里罗几年前写的一部小说，书名叫《Zero K》。
For those interested in this stuff, or the "we will preserve your body and resurrect you in some date in the future" technology, I recommend a Don Delillo novel from a couple years ago, title is Zero K.
……无法控制。也许我说的不对。只有随着时间的推移，我们才能知道这些人到底能不能复活。就像我之前说的，我赌“绝无可能”。如果你喜欢唐·德里罗，《Zero K》是对人体冷冻技术极其出色的批判。
…can't control. Maybe I'm wrong. Only with the passage of time we will know whether these people will be resurrected or not. As I said, I'm betting on "no chance in hell". If you like Don DeLillo, Zero K is an excellent criticism of cryonics.
唐·德里罗后期的佳作之一就是写这个的（《Zero K》）。我一直觉得人们对未来可能世界的态度挺有意思的。在这个帖子里你就能看到各种截然不同的观点——无论你觉得功能性永生是不是件好事……
One of Don DeLillo's later good novels is about this stuff (Zero K). I always think people's attitude toward possible future worlds is interesting. You can see a wide spread of opinion in this thread -- whether you think functional immortality would be a good thing…
这是德里罗最新小说《Zero K》的核心元素。在前苏联阵营的一个前不着村后不着店的荒凉之地，建起了一座最先进的秘密设施。它由超级富豪出资建造，他们的遗体被解构并冷冻起来，寄希望于……
This is a main element of DeLillo's latest book Zero K. A state-of-the-art secret facility is built in a middle of nowhere former Soviet bloc country. It's financed by ultra wealthy people whose bodies are disassembled and frozen with the hopes they will…
我是德里罗的铁粉，但我真心讨厌《Zero K》——绝对是他写得最烂的一本。它对人体冷冻技术的呈现既空洞又幼稚，还披着一层围绕虚荣和自私展开的乱七八糟的主题。我还特别期待德里罗能就这个题材写出点……
I’m a big fan of DeLillo, but I absolutely hated Zero K - his worst writing by far. It was a vapid, childish presentation of cryonics, dressed up in a bunch of confused themes around vanity and selfishness. I was so excited for DeLillo to write based on that…
