……求推荐其他题材里适合科幻迷读的有意思的书?(我最近的最爱是《三体》系列、Greg Egan 的《置换城市》、Andy Weir 的《挽救计划》,以及 Walter Tevis 的《天外来客》(The Man who fell to Earth)。)多谢!
…recommendations for interesting reads from other genres that would suit a sci-fi fan? (My recent favorites have been the Three Body Problem series, Permutation City by Greg Egan, Hail Mary by Andy Weir, and The Man who fell to Earth by Walter Tevis.) Thanks!
……Tevis 写的,讲的是人类把连脑力劳动都全权甩给机器人几个世纪之后,第一个学会认字的人类的故事;以及最后一个机器监管者,因为对自己的任务感到厌世而自杀倾向严重。Tevis 还写了《天外来客》——而且挺让人意外的是,他还写了《后翼弃兵》和《江湖浪子》。还有 Justin Scott 的《屠船者》(The Shipkiller)——虽然有点年头了,但绝对是一部复仇冒险神作。新近出版的书里,我非常喜欢 Adrian 的《长者种族》(Elder Race)……
…Tevis, about the first man to learn to read, centuries after humanity delegated even intellectual labor to robots; and the last robot overseer, suicidally bored with his assignment. Tevis also wrote The Man Who Fell To Earth – and, somewhat surprisingly, The Queen's Gambit and The Hustler. The Shipkiller, by Justin Scott – dated but a great revenge adventure. And of current releases I really enjoyed Elder Race by Adrian…
Walter Tevis 写的《仿生鸟》(Mockingbird,他还写过《江湖浪子》、《金钱本色》、《后翼弃兵》和《天外来客》——作品跨度简直惊人!)一直是我最喜欢的书之一,看到他当年对人类多么迫不及待地把所有脑力劳动甩给机器人预测得如此之准,甚至让人觉得毛骨悚然。(最后的 9 级……
Mockingbird, by Walter Tevis (who wrote The Hustler and The Color of Money, and Queen's Gambit, and The Man Who Fell To Earth – quite an oeuvre!) has long been one of my favorite books and it's been eerie to see how right he was about how eager mankind is to hand over all intellectual labor to the robots. (The last level 9…
我一直觉得《天外来客》就像是电影版的《异乡异客》(Stranger in a Strange Land)。Bowie 的“演技”也堪称惊艳。https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Man_Who_Fell_to_Earth
I've always thought of Man Who Fell To Earth as being a film of Stranger in a Strange Land. Brilliant "acting" by Bowie also. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Man_Who_Fell_to_Earth
I am reading 'The Man Who Fell To Earth" and it's about this supposedly very smart martian who makes very basic mistakes that led to his capture. There is a quote, something to the effect, 'it's amazing the number of things you just don't…

我正在读《天外来客》,讲的是一个据称绝顶聪明的火星人,却犯了非常低级的错误导致自己被捕。书里有句话,大意是说:“人竟然会有这么多完全意料不到的……真是不可思议”
