Cat's Cradle 是 Kurt Vonnegut 对现代人类及其疯狂行径的讽刺性批注。这部讲述地球最终命运的末世寓言,以一个侏儒为主角,展现了一位卡吕普索歌手创立的完整而离奇的全新神学,以及一幅兼具黑色宿命感与荒诞滑稽的未来图景。作为一部在整整一代读者心中留下不可磨灭印记的著作,Cat's Cradle 是二十世纪最重要的杰作之一,也是 Vonnegut 登峰造极的代表作。

……我可不会轻易或毫无缘由地去吹捧这类书)所以我很喜欢《指环王》《精灵宝钻》《火星年代记》(以及雷·布拉德伯里的其他书)、厄休拉·勒古恩(《地海传奇》)、库尔特·冯内古特(《猫的摇篮》《泰坦妖女》《第五号屠宰场》等)、《沙丘》、《权力的游戏》系列、《神经漫游者》、阿西莫夫(基本所有书,尤其是《基地》系列)、特里·普拉切特等等……而且我认为吉恩……
…don't praise books like these lightly or without good reason) So I love Lord of the Rings, the Silmarillion, Martian Chronicles (and other Ray Bradbury books), Ursula K Le Guin(Earthsea), Kurt Vonnegut (Cat's Cradle, Sirens of Titan, Slaughterhouse Five etc), Dune, Game of Thrones series, Neuromancer, Asimov (basically everything but especially Foundation series), Terry Pratchett, and so on... And I consider Gene…
虽然很多人喜欢读那些非虚构的技术书,但生活可远不止这些!HN 社区还喜欢哪些其他(也就是虚构类)书籍?我个人最喜欢的绝对是《猫的摇篮》(冯内古特),但《海边的卡夫卡》(村上春树)已经紧随其后成了我的第二爱。
While many enjoy those non-fiction technical reads, there's more to life than that! What other (i.e. fiction) books does the HN community like? My personal favorite is definitely Cat's Cradle (Vonnegut), but Kafka On The Beach (Murakami) has become my close second.
我永远也拿不准到底《猫的摇篮》是我读过最搞笑的书,还是图尔的《笨蛋联盟》。有时候觉得《笨蛋联盟》更胜一筹,但大多数时候只要一想到九号冰,我就又立刻倒戈站回库尔特阵营了。
I can never decide if Cat's Cradle is the funniest book I've ever read, or Toole's A Confederacy of Dunces. Some days, Dunces wins, but the majority of the time all it takes is remembering ice-nine and it's back to camp Kurt I go.
如果你觉得这个有意思,你可能会喜欢库尔特·冯内古特的《猫的摇篮》,它是围绕一种极度危险(且虚构)的冰形态——“九号冰”(ice-nine)展开的。即便你对九号冰没那么兴奋,它读起来依然非常过瘾。
If you find this interesting, you might enjoy Kurt Vonnegut's "Cat's Cradle", which is based around a highly dangerous (and imaginary) form of ice, ice-nine. And even if you aren't super excited about ice-nine, it's still a highly enjoyable read.
库尔特·冯内古特的作品:《泰坦妖星》、《夜母》、《猫的摇篮》、《第五号屠宰场》、《自动钢琴》、《囚鸟》、《超级早餐》、《祝您饱览... 抽时间读读冯内古特吧。
Kurt Vonnegut's works: The Sirens of Titan, Mother Night, Cat's Cradle, Slaughterhouse Five, Player Piano, Jailbird, God Bless You Mr. Rosewater... Find the time to read Vonnegut.
在硅谷待了一段时间后重读冯内古特的《猫的摇篮》,真是一针见血地照出了我身边的那类人:情感冷漠的天才们漫不经心地毁灭着世界。他的叙事风格……
Re-reading Vonnegut’s Cat’s Cradle after being in Silicon Valley after a while really illuminated the character-type I found myself surrounded by: emotionally detached geniuses absentmindedly ruining the world. His style of storytelling…
