"The most consistently brilliant science fiction writer in the world."
--John Brunner
THE INSPIRATION FOR BLADERUNNER. . .
Do Androids Dream of Electric Sheep? was published in 1968. Grim and foreboding, even today it is a masterpiece ahead of its time.
By 2021, the World War had killed millions, driving entire species into extinction and sending mankind off-planet. Those who remained coveted any living creature, and for people who couldn't afford one, companies built incredibly realistic simulacrae: horses, birds, cats, sheep. . .
They even built humans.
Emigrees to Mars received androids so sophisticated it was impossible to tell them from true men or women. Fearful of the havoc these artificial humans could wreak, the government banned them from Earth. But when androids didn't want to be identified, they just blended in.
Rick Deckard was an officially sanctioned bounty hunter whose job was to find rogue androids, and to retire them. But cornered, androids tended to fight back, with deadly results.
"[Dick] sees all the sparkling and terrifying possibilities. . . that other authors shy away from."
--Paul Williams

我这节课名为 “The Meaning of Technology”,这位名为Warren Steele的教授声称他读了此书几十遍,看了电影更多遍,对这故事爱到入骨。 这名教授声称这是一本关于“tenderness”的书,虽然机器和杀戮都是冷冰冰,但他从头到尾都觉得满是温柔。 他说为什么Deckard不愿移民?...

All those moments will be lost in time.Like tears in rain. ——Ridley Scott Blade Runner 这句出自经典电影《银翼杀手》的台词被许多人铭记,可是作为其原著的《仿生人会梦见电子羊》中却没有这一句话。但这并无所谓,电影和小说营造的并非同一个世界,讲述的...

无知的我居然现在才读到这本神作。电影完全没有抓到原著的精髓啊,原著中关于动物的那些设定才是最精妙的。

Life or death stops to matter the moment she pushes to goat off the roof. Too good to be read fewer than twice. Need to read the third time to unpack.

书和电影各有千秋,看完以后似乎更喜欢电影的改编,可能是先入为主吧

读起来很压抑,句式结构有时候让人费劲,有一些小发转,有一点不知道理解的对不对,mercer和IZ的童年经历是不是一样的。仿生人的自我观念和对世界的认真,人对仿生人的观念,mercer主义,描写废土世界是在次要的。
