大海夺走了一切。巨浪卷走了海岛村庄后，Mau 成为了唯一的幸存者。但有所失必有所还，在丛林的某处，来自地球另一端的女孩 Daphne——同一场巨浪摧毁的船只上唯一的幸存者——也活了下来。两人共同面对浩劫过后的惨淡余波。循着 Mau 和 Daphne 避难处升起的营火青烟，其他难民缓缓汇聚而来：失去双亲的孩子、失去婴儿的母亲、失去妻子的丈夫——每个人都饥肠辘辘、惊恐万状。正当 Mau 和 Daphne 竭力维持这处小小的……

我目前正在读 Terry Pratchett 的《Nation》。我之前读完了所有的《碟形世界》小说，非常喜欢。后来去年我读了 Terry Pratchett 的传记（个人觉得也很值得一读！），里面提到了……
I'm currently reading Nation by Terry Pratchett. I have previously read all of the Discworld novels and thoroughly enjoyed them. Then last year I read the Terry Pratchett biography (also worth a read, IMO!), where it is mentioned…
……任何 Pratchett 的作品并且想尝尝鲜，与其去读那么多本《碟形世界》小说中的一本，或者他的任何科幻作品，亦或是《地下民》或《约翰尼·麦克斯韦》三部曲，我反而会推荐这本单行本小说《Nation》。依我看，它最凝练地展现了 Pratchett 写作的所有精彩之处。
…any Pratchett and want to try it out, rather than read one of the many Discworld novels, or any of his sci-fi, or the Bromeliad or Johnny Maxwell trilogies, I'd instead recommend the stand-alone novel Nation. It is my opinion that it is the most concise demonstration of everything great about Pratchett's writing.
Terry Pratchett 把这些奇妙的动物写进了他的书《Nation》所发生的世界里（要我说，这是他最棒的书之一）。毫无疑问，他是从这个网站获得的灵感
Terry Pratchett added these wonderful animals to the world in which his book Nation takes place (one of his very best books, if you ask me). He undoubtedly was inspired by this website
……通常是很多年里我初次读到它们的书。参见 Iain M. Banks 的《武器的使用》、Orson Scott Card 的《安德的游戏》、Vernor Vinge 的《深渊上的火》或 Henry Kuttner 的小说，还有 Terry Pratchett 的《Nation》。如果你不记得自己读过的书，那就换些真正有实质内容而不只是辞藻华丽的书来读吧。
…usually the book in which I encountered them for many years. vide Iain M. Banks "Use of weapons", Orson Scott Cars "Ender's Game", Vernor Vinge "Fire upon the deep" or Henry Kuttner novels, Terry Pratchett "Nation" If you don't remember the books you've read then change the books you are reading to some that have actual content not just crafty words.
我最喜欢的 Pratchett 作品之一是《Nation》。它其实不是《碟形世界》系列，但神韵完全一脉相承。我和我妻子听了有声书（后来两人又都看了一遍纸质书），特别喜欢。还有“碰巧产生的奶”，当 Daphne 琢磨出它的时候……
One of my favorite Pratchett books is Nation. It's actually not a Discworld book, but very much in the same vein. My wife and I listened to the audiobook (and then later both read it) and loved it. The Milk that Happens, when Daphne figures it…
咦，我昨天刚在 Terry Pratchett 的《Nation》里读到过这个理论。我正在回过头把他那些我落下的少数几本书补完。
Huh, I just read this theory yesterday in Nation by Terry Pratchett. I'm going back and reading the few books of his I missed.
