The Sparrow 是一部关于一位非凡人物的小说，他是一位在世的圣徒、终身独身的耶稣会神父，经历了一场极其痛苦而深刻的变故，以至于开始质疑上帝的存在。这场经历——人类与地外智慧生命的首次接触——始于一个小小的失误，并以一场惨烈的灾难告终。

……主角。不过我的推荐力度可比不上这几位大佬：“我觉得霍恩布洛尔令人钦佩。”——温斯顿·丘吉尔；以及“我向我认识的所有识字的人推荐福斯特，”——欧内斯特·海明威。玛丽·多利亚·拉塞尔的《麻雀》（The Sparrow）。我是从 Hacker News 的另一个图书帖子里发现这本书的。太好看了，看完续集后我立马又把第一部重读了一遍。SETI 发现了音乐……
…protagonist. My recommendation won't be as strong as these gentlemen though: "I find Hornblower admirable." -Winston Churchill, and "I recommend Forester to everyone literate I know," -Ernest Hemingway The Sparrow - Mary Doria Russell. I found this through another Hacker News book thread. I enjoyed it so much that after reading the sequel I immediately went back and read the first book again. SETI discovers music…
年度最爱书单：（我主要看科幻和中短篇小说）玛丽·多利亚·拉塞尔的《麻雀》；哈兰·艾里森的《无声狂啸》；特德·姜的《你一生的故事》；马克和杰伊·杜普拉斯的《亲如兄弟》；小沃尔特·米勒的《莱博维茨的赞歌》；《安迪密恩》……
Favorite books of the year: (I'm primarily a sci fi and short story novel reader) The Sparrow by Mary Doria Russell I Have No Mouth And I Must Scream by Harlan Ellison Stories of Your Life by Ted Chiang Like Brothers by Mark and Jay Duplass A Canticle for Leibowitz by Walter Miller Jr Endymion…
……翻来覆去重读了好多遍，书页都散架了。对某些人来说开头有点劝退，因为是用太空版现代标准英语（King's English）写的，但书里的干货绝对是块璞玉。2. 迈克尔·弗林的《艾费尔海姆》（Eifelheim）。3. 玛丽·多利亚·拉塞尔的《麻雀》（The Sparrow）。哇，她太神了。4. 约翰·桑福德（犯罪小说作家）和 Ctein 写的《土星之旅》（Saturn Run）。5. 乔治·R·R·马丁、加德纳·多佐伊斯和丹尼尔·亚伯拉罕（《苍穹浩瀚》的作者）合著的《猎人快跑》（Hunter's Run）……
…re-read it so many times that the book fell apart. Hard start for some, since it's written in space King's English, but what they load in the book is a gem. 2. "Eifelheim" by Michael Flynn. 3. "The Sparrow" by Mary Doria Russell. Wow. She's brilliant. 4. "Saturn Run" by John Sandford (crime novelist) and Ctein. 5. "Hunter's Run" by George R. R. Martin, Gardner Dozois, and Daniel Abraham (from the Expanse)…
这玩意儿对谁来说都不是刚需，但确实是个挺惬意的奢侈享受。上周我在海滩上，一个朋友（高中英语老师）推荐了一本她在课堂上教学生的小说（玛丽·多利亚·拉塞尔的《麻雀》；目前为止觉得棒极了）。听她讲得太吸引人了，我当时就坐在海滩上立马下单，30秒后就开始读了。所以我预计……
It's not really necessary for anyone, but it is quite a nice luxury. I was at the beach last week and a friend (a highschool English teacher) recommended a novel that she teaches her students ("The Sparrow" by Mary Doria Russell; it's great so far). I was so intrigued by her explanation of it that I bought it then and there, sitting on the beach, and started reading it 30 seconds later. So I expect that…
玛丽·多利亚·拉塞尔的《麻雀》。毫无悬念是我读过的最好的科幻小说之一。哦，还有尼尔·斯蒂芬森的所有作品（除了《Zodiac》）。
The Sparrow - Mary Doria Russell. Hands down one of the best sci-fi books I've ever read. Oh, and anything by Neil Stephenson (except Zodiac).
如果你好奇反过来的情况——即人类的接触会如何影响外星智慧生命的行为——我强烈推荐玛丽·多利亚·拉塞尔的《麻雀》。
And if you wonder about the opposite - how human contact would affect the behavior of intelligent life elsewhere - I highly recommend The Sparrow by Mary Doria Russell.
