巴比伦彩票

Hacker News 上怎么说

• jacques_chester · 2013 年

  ……除了是泰斗级的文学评论家，他还写短篇小说。他是把短篇当诗歌来攻关的——用最少的文字压缩进最丰富的故事。短小精悍，却力道十足。尤其是《巴比伦彩票》和《巴别塔图书馆》，简直就是组合数学式的恐怖故事。它们从极其简单的设定切入，然后徐徐展开。那种面对无限可能性和未知所带来的步步紧逼的恐惧感……

  …being a towering critic of literature, he wrote short stories. He treated these as a poetry problem -- compressing the most story into the least number of words. They are spare, lean, but powerful. The Lottery in Babylon and The Library of Babel, in particular, are combinatorial horror stories. They take simple concepts and slowly unfold them. The sense of escalating dread at the possibilities of infinity and the uncertainties…

  ……几乎肯定是错的。不过，探索一下维持所有人平衡的规则空间里，到底包不包含我们真正愿意生活在其中的规则集，倒挺有意思的。你读过博尔赫斯的《巴比伦彩票》吗？

  …fairly certain is false. It'd be interesting to explore whether the space of rules that keep everyone on an even keel include any rule sets that we'd actually want to live under, though. Ever read "The Lottery in Babylon" by Borges?

  灵感可能是来自博尔赫斯？https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Lottery_in_Babylon（收录在非常好看的《虚构集》里）

  Inspiration from Borges maybe? https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Lottery_in_Babylon (it's in the highly entertaining Ficciones collection)

  读了这篇提到的《巴别塔图书馆》，很喜欢。博尔赫斯的其他杰作还有——《巴比伦彩票》、《蓝色的老虎》、《阿斯泰里翁的家》。

  Enjoyed reading the Library of Babel, referred in this article. Other Borges masterpieces - The Lottery in Babylon, Blue Tigers, The House of Asterion.

  聊魔幻现实主义必提博尔赫斯。去读读他的《小径分岔的花园》和《巴比伦彩票》吧。都是后劲极大、发人深省的短篇。

  Obligatory Borges mention for magical realism. Read his Garden of Forking Paths and Lottery in Babylon. Short stories which leave you with much to think about

  ……故事集，我建议先挑《虚构集》和《阿莱夫》这两本看。入门的几篇名篇可以是《特隆、乌克巴尔、奥比斯·特蒂乌斯》、《巴比伦彩票》、《巴别塔图书馆》和《不朽者》。如果你想要稍微感性一点的，《环形废墟》非常棒。如果你想要更冷淡、更讽刺也更后现代的，《<吉诃德>的作者皮埃尔·梅纳尔》……

  …collection of books of stories, and I would recommend prioritizing reading the Fictions and The Aleph collections first. Some of his popular stories to start with would be "Tlön, Uqbar, Orbis Tertius", "The Lottery in Babylon", "The Library of Babel", and "The Immortal". If you want slightly more sentimental, "The Circular Ruins" is wonderful. If you want dryer, more satirical and postmodern, "Pierre Menard, Author of the…
