From an award-winning science fiction writer (whose short story "The Story of Your Life" was the basis for the Academy Award-nominated movie Arrival), the long-awaited new collection of stunningly original, humane, and already celebrated short stories
This much-anticipated second collection of stories is signature Ted Chiang, full of revelatory ideas and deeply sympathetic characters. In "The Merchant and the Alchemist's Gate," a portal through time forces a fabric seller in ancient Baghdad to grapple with past mistakes and the temptation of second chances. In the epistolary "Exhalation," an alien scientist makes a shocking discovery with ramifications not just for his own people, but for all of reality. And in "The Lifecycle of Software Objects," a woman cares for an artificial intelligence over twenty years, elevating a faddish digital pet into what might be a true living being. Also included are two brand-new stories: "Omphalos" and "Anxiety Is the Dizziness of Freedom."
In this fantastical and elegant collection, Ted Chiang wrestles with the oldest questions on earth--What is the nature of the universe? What does it mean to be human?--and ones that no one else has even imagined. And, each in its own way, the stories prove that complex and thoughtful science fiction can rise to new heights of beauty, meaning, and compassion.
TED CHIANG was born in Port Jefferson, New York, and holds a degree in computer science. His fiction has won numerous awards. His first collection, Stories of Your Life and Others, has been translated into ten languages. He lives near Seattle, Washington.
非常喜歡第一個故事。但其他的實在看不下去。我還是更喜歡宏大敘事類的科幻題材
評分在書店看到纔發現居然包括2019年的兩篇新作,立刻買下,迴傢讀完隻能說 Ted 那一套架空世界娓娓道來震碎三觀的風格真是越來越溜瞭,一齣手就是神作。。
評分太好看瞭。中文版題目翻譯的不好,不是呼吸,應該是大喘氣,隻呼瞭沒吸。
評分喜歡exhalation和第一篇,其他的沒有特彆觸動

读史使人明智。这里的史是历史,也是未来史。 我们从过去学到的,跟我们从未来学到的,竟然都如此丰富多彩!这才是科幻书该有的模样! 以下分享几个自己比较有感触的故事: 炼金术:我们既是自己人生的参与者和创造者,但有时候也是无力改变的旁观者。过去发生的事实无法改变,...
評分人类替数码体做决定,确实就像父母给孩子规划人生,经验固然可以预测未来,但是在多大程度上,经验的有效性可以大过对自由意志的尊重和呵护?18岁只是写在纸上的一个数字。 另外,科幻的基石逻辑大抵是科技的发展或者架空。本篇二者兼有,借由科幻的外壳讨论的当然还是哲学的问...
評分 評分先说一声,书是在豆瓣书店买的,赠送的书签真好用,镂空设计,夹在书里也不影响阅读。 才读完第一篇《商人与炼金术士之门》,已经决得物有所值。好故事无价。它让我对如何阅读小说,有了更清晰的认识。 阅读行为和其他事情一样,都有人经验世界的过程。 面对一个好故事,读者既...
