A propos du livre

Revue de presse :

'Complex and grandiose ... this is a mind-altering and immersive experience' Daily Mail.

'A marvellous mélange of awe-inspiring scientific concepts ... exhilarating, mind-stretching' TLS.

'Top-flight SF; smart, informative and engaging' SFX.

'Liu conjures up a genuine sense of wonder' SFX.

'Absolutely fantastic ... The hardback is a thing of beauty and its translations are wonderful' --For Winter Nights.

'A wonderful collection and brings Cixin Liu's own unique flavour to the genre' --SF Crows Nest.

'Liu uses the exotic foreignness of alien environments to lure readers into an enchanted literary escape pod. The story's backdrop might be one of spectacular beauty or entropic devastation but the distancing effect its abnormality provides is always stirring' --Big Issue.

Présentation de l'éditeur :

Cixin Liu is one of the most important voices in world science fiction. A bestseller in China, his novel, The Three-Body Problem, was the first translated work of SF ever to win the Hugo Award. Here is the first collection of his short fiction : these stories, including five Chinese Galaxy Award-winners, form a blazingly original ode to planet Earth - its pasts and its futures. Liu's stories take the reader to the edge of the universe to meet stranger fates than we could have ever imagined. With a melancholic and keen understanding of human nature, Liu explores humanity's attempts to reason, navigate and, above all, survive in an often desolate cosmos.
