A Deepness in the Sky by Vernor Vinge
Jul. 7th, 2013 09:33 pmЧитаю вот книгу, и очень она мне нравится.
Я прочла пока что 30%, а сколько в ней всего страниц я не знаю, потому как Киндл. Но серьёзного размера книга.
Научно-фантастическая.
A Deepness in the Sky is a 1999 Nebula Award Nominee for Best Novel and the winner of the 2000 Hugo Award for Best Novel.
Под катом хочу привести понравившуюся мне цитату, но если вы боитесь спойлеров, может быть лучше под кат и не ходить.
"...sometimes he wondered if these translations might be the Trixia of old, trapped in the most effective slavery of all time, and still reaching out for hope. The Spider world was the only place her Focus allowed her to gaze upon. Maybe she was distorting what she heard, creating a dream of happiness in the only way that was left to her."
Я думаю, что написано достаточно загадочно и запутанно для непосвящённых. Если кому интересно, в чём дело, то можно спросить в комментах, но там уже точно будет спойлер, если я начну объяснять.
UPD: Vernor Steffen Vinge (/ˈvɪndʒiː/; born October 2, 1944) is a retired San Diego State University (SDSU) Professor ofMathematics, computer scientist, and science fictionauthor. He is best known for his Hugo Award-winning novels and novellas A Fire Upon the Deep (1992),A Deepness in the Sky (1999), Rainbows End (2006),Fast Times at Fairmont High (2002) and The Cookie Monster (2004), as well as for his 1984 novel The Peace War and his 1993 essay "The Coming Technological Singularity", in which he argues that the creation ofsuperhuman artificial intelligence will mark the point at which "the human era will be ended," such that no current models of reality are sufficient to predict beyond it.

Kogda ya zhila v Rossii, ya chitala vsyo v perevodah, i bylo normal'no.
Prosto zhivya v Amerike, chitat' amerikanskogo avtora po-russki mne kak-to stranno.
