作为推想小说领域的杰出成就，A Voyage to Arcturus 数十年来一直启发、迷醉并震撼着读者。它既是一场穿越有史以来构想最奇特、描绘最精彩的外星世界的史诗级探险，也是一段探索宇宙形而上学核心的深刻感人发现之旅，更是一次直击人类本质与独特性的发人深省的探寻。在经历了一场离奇的星际旅行后，地球人 Maskull 在 Tormance 行星的荒漠中独自醒来，饱受 Arcturus 双星烈日的灼烤。当他向北跋涉时，

……故事，其中一些阴郁悲观，但大多带有一丝黑色幽默。《楚布与席米什》（Chu-bu and Sheemish）是我一直以来最喜欢的短篇小说之一——极富创意又搞笑至极。[1] 我也很喜欢《大角星之旅》（A Voyage to Arcturus），它已经成了现代 cult 经典。这大概是我在 SE 上读过的最喜欢的书了，尽管作为一本“海滩消遣读物”来说可能有点沉重。[2] 想要轻松点的内容，P. G. 伍德豪斯（P. G. Wodehouse）永远是个不错的选择。……
…stories, some of them gloomy and pessimistic but many with a thread of dark humor. "Chu-bu and Sheemish" is one of my all-time favorite short stories - it's creative and hilarious. [1] I also liked A Voyage to Arcturus, which has become a modern cult classic. It's probably my favorite book I've read for SE, though it might be a little heavy for a "beach read." [2] P. G. Wodehouse is always a good bet for lighter reading.…
……这类活动？这系列可以出一款精美印刷版，以及一个免费在线阅读的 PDF 版。排版都要漂漂亮亮的。可以先从“被遗忘的科幻”经典系列做起，比如小提普垂（Tiptree）的短篇集、《大角星之旅》（A Voyage to Arcturus）等等。搞这么个东西得花多少钱？
…such activities? Series would have a nicely printed version and a pdf version free to read online. All nicely typeset. Can start with a series on “Forgotten Sci-fi” classics, e.g. Tiptree’s stories, A Voyage to Arcturus, etc. How much would such a thing cost?
……我觉得没有被足够频繁地提及（甚至根本没人提 :-)）。我认为他的《三个冒牌货》（The Three Impostors）更棒。如果你喜欢这种 20 世纪初怪诞神秘的书，一定要去看看戴维·林赛（David Lindsay）的《大角星之旅》（Voyage to Arcturus，https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/A_Voyage_to_Arcturus）。
…doesn't get mentioned often enough (or at all :-) I think. I think his The Three Impostors is even better. If you like this sort of weird early 1900's mystic book, be sure to also check out David Lindsay's Voyage to Arcturus (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/A_Voyage_to_Arcturus).
这恰好说明，肚子里真有货的作者就算“文笔欠佳”也别打退堂鼓。戴维·林赛的《大角星之旅》就是另一个典型的例子。对话写得一塌糊涂，但这本小说却是一部惊艳绝伦的杰作（tour de force）。
Which just goes to show that authors with something to say should not be put off if they're 'stylistically challenged'. David Lindsay's Voyage to Arcturus is another glaring example. The dialogue is pathetic but the novel is an amazing tour de force.
戴维·林赛的《大角星之旅》（A Voyage to Arcturus）值得注意的一点是，它是古腾堡计划（Project Gutenberg）上最早推出的电子书之一，这让它获得了比原本可能拥有的更多的曝光。强烈推荐。
David Lindsay's _A Voyage to Arcturus_ is notable for having been one of the earliest available ebooks on Project Gutenberg, netting a few wider exposure than it might have had otherwise. Highly recommended.
我最近一直在读的几部选集是 Gollancz 出的科幻和奇幻经典大师系列。其中非常出彩的有杰克·万斯（Jack Vance）的《濒死的地球》（The Dying Earth）和《大角星之旅》。里面有一些非常棒的作品，要不是有这套梳理这些流派历史和演变的精选书单，我根本不可能发现它们。https://www.worldswithoutend.com/lists_fantasy_masterworks.a...…
A few collections i've been reading are the sci-fi and fantasy masterwork ones by gollancz. A few standouts have been the dying earth by jack vance and A Voyage to Arcturus. There are some amazing works in here which i would never have found without the curation that shows the history and evolution the genres. https://www.worldswithoutend.com/lists_fantasy_masterworks.a...…
