为什么值得读

  • 讲述智力文明新物种逐步接管世界的反乌托邦故事
  • 构思精妙,兼具讽刺意味与预言性的古典科幻
  • 深刻揭示人类社会的现实困境与人性弱点

《蝾螈战争》写于 1936 年,即恰佩克去世前两年、纳粹入侵捷克斯洛伐克前三年,被许多人视为恰佩克最伟大的作品。恰佩克秉承威尔斯、奥威尔和冯内古特的“奇幻”讽刺传统,记述了在印度尼西亚一座岛屿沿海发现一群高智商巨型蝾螈的经过。恰佩克辛辣地详述了文明世界的种种反应——从惊恐到怀疑,从知识界的着迷到商人的投机——以及那场它(和蝾螈)或许都无法幸免的最终毁灭

Hacker News 上怎么说

  • 强烈推荐恰佩克的其他作品,《昆虫戏剧》和《鲵鱼之乱》。

    Highly recommend Capek's other works, The Insect Play, and War with the Newts.

  • 卡雷尔·恰佩克(《罗素姆万能机器人/R.U.R.》的作者)写的《鲵鱼之乱》(1936)。经典的科幻小说兼政治讽刺剧,讲的是一个全新且具有智慧的鲵鱼种族正在接管世界,而人类在为时已晚之前居然毫无察觉。至今……

    War with the Newts (1936) by Karel Čapek (of R.U.R. fame). Classical sci-fi novel and political satire in which a new intelligent breed of Newts are taking over the world and no-one realizes before it's too late. Still…

  • 卡雷尔·恰佩克是一位伟大的科幻与讽刺作家。我推荐《鲵鱼之乱》(War with the Newts),也被翻译为《火蜥蜴战争》。

    Karel Čapek is a great science fiction and satirical writer. I'd recommend War with the Newts, also translated as Salamander Wars.

  • Robot(机器人)最初指的也是安卓仿生人(andoids)。这个词是卡雷尔·恰佩克(https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Karel_%C4%8Capek)为他的一部戏剧发明的。我推荐他的《鲵鱼之乱》。

    Robot originally referred to andoids, too. The word was invented by Karel Čapek (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Karel_%C4%8Capek) for one of his plays. I recommend his "War with the Newts".

  • ……都有。有许多虚构类作品道尽了人性的真相,但我更想推荐卡雷尔·恰佩克的小说,因为如今看的人不多了。尤其是《绝对的工厂》(The Absolute at Large)和《鲵鱼之乱》(War with the Newts)。

    …have. There are many fictional books that tell so much truth about humanity, but I would recommend Karel Capek's novels as those aren't very popular nowadays. Particuraly: The "Absolute at Large" and "War with the Newts".

  • 恰佩克的《鲵鱼之乱》[1] 读起来还要更胜一筹(诚实地讲,我只看过译本)。1: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/War_with_the_Newts#As_satire_a...

    Capek's War with the Newts [1] is a little better read (I have only read it in translation, admittedly). 1: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/War_with_the_Newts#As_satire_a...
