为什么值得读

  • 精准预言生态崩溃与社会图景
  • 展现冷漠接受灾难的真实窒息感
  • 立意深刻常被低估的科幻佳作

在不久的将来,空气污染严重到人人都戴着防毒面具。婴儿死亡率飙升,先天缺陷、新型疾病以及各类身体疾患层出不穷。水已无法饮用——除非你是穷人且别无选择。争夺防毒面具、饮用水和洁净食物利润的大财阀凌驾于无能且腐败的政府之上。环保主义者 Austin Train 正在逃亡。“trainites”——一群激进的暴力环保分子——希望他来领导他们的运动;政府欲置他于死地;而媒体只渴望娱乐噱头。但

Hacker News 上怎么说

  • 我也觉得《群羊仰望》(The Sheep Look Up)是一部被低估的小说。我是在1984或85年读的。直到全书快结尾,我都一直以为这是对罗纳德·里根总统任期的恶搞、讽刺或者预设。等我读完翻看版权页……

    I agree about The Sheep Look Up being an underrated novel. I read it in 1984 or '85. Until the end of the book, I was thinking it was a parody or satire or projection of Ronald Reagan's presidency. When I finished, I looked at the copyright…

  • ……《Nova》)哦对了,罗杰·泽拉兹尼的《光明王》和《不朽》都超级棒。菲利普·K·迪克的部分作品很神,但所有人都在推荐他。:) 差点忘了约翰·布鲁纳(John Brunner),去看看《钢铁海滩》、《群羊仰望》(The Sheep Look Up)和《站在桑给巴尔》吧。

    …Nova) oh and Roger Zelazny's Lord of Light and This Immortal are both great. Some of Philip K. Dick's stuff is great, but everyone recommends him. :) almost forgot John Brunner, check out Steel Beach, The Sheep Look Up, and Stand on Zanzibar.

  • 这儿有一份真正的书单,更简短而且质量高得多:1. 《机器人大师》(The Cyberiad) 2. 《通天塔-17》(Babel-17) 3. 《群星,我的归宿》(The Stars My Destination) 4. 《瞧,那些羊》(The Sheep Look Up) 5. 《超人类》(More Than Human) 6. 《光明王》(Lord of Light) 7. 《奔向你们散乱的躯体》(To Your Scattered Bodies Go) 8. 《大地长存》(Earth Abides) 9. 《内心死寂》(Dying Inside) 10. 《城市》(City) 11. 《最后与最初的人类》(Last and First Men) 12. 《斯兰》(Slan) 13. 《非A世界》(The World of Null-A)

    Here is a real list, shorter and MUCH higher quality: 1. The Cyberiad 2. Babel-17 3. The Stars My Destination 4. The Sheep Look Up 5. More Than Human 6. Lord of Light 7. To Your Scattered Bodies Go 8. Earth Abides 9. Dying Inside 10. City 11. Last and First Men 12. Slan 13. The World of Null-A

  • ……把这个点子扩充成长篇小说后,反倒没有原版短篇那么惊艳了。在这份书单里我遗憾地发现漏掉了一位作者:约翰·布鲁纳。《站在桑给巴尔》、《群羊仰望》(The Sheep Look Up)和《震荡波骑士》每一本按理说都配得上在榜单里占有一席之地。

    …that the novel length treatment of the idea is not quite as amazing as the original short story. One author that I find sadly missing from the list is John Brunner. Each of "Stand on Zanzibar", "The Sheep Look Up", and "Shockwave Rider" would arguably deserve a place on this list.

  • 如果你想看生态末世题材,去看看约翰·布鲁纳的《群羊仰望》(The Sheep Look Up,写于70年代初)。我读过的书里没有哪本能像它那样把我吓坏。我觉得真正让人背脊发凉的,是书中大家彻底麻木地把一切现状都视作理所当然的那种平淡感。

    If you want ecology apocalypse, check out John Brunner's _The Sheep Look Up_ (written in the early 70s). No other book I've read scared me as much as that one. I think what did it was the utter normalcy with which everything was just accepted as is.

  • 约翰·布鲁纳的《群羊仰望》(The Sheep Look Up)。这是我读过最吓人的书。

    The Sheep Look Up by John Brunner. It was the scariest book I ever read.
