Red Schuhart is a stalker, one of those strange misfits who are compelled by some unknown force to venture illegally into the Zone and, in spite of the extreme danger, collect the mysterious artefacts that the alien visitors left scattered around. His life is dominated by the Zone and the thriving black market in the alien products. Even the nature of his daughter has been determined by the Zone. And it is for her that Red makes his last, tragic foray into the hazardous and hostile depths.

"No, that's not about us. How about this: 'man, as opposed to animals, is a creature with an undefinable need for knowledge'? I read that somewhere."
"So have I," said Valentine. "But the whole problem with that is that the average man--the one you have in mind when you talk about 'us' and 'not us'--very easily manages to overcome this need for knowledge. I don't believe that need even exists. There is a need to understand, and you don't need knowledge for that.

叙事分为三条线路 第一条是主线 主角和几个人一起再次踏入“区”寻找金球 第二条是主角从年轻到开头的经历 第三条是科学家来给本文点题 看似无关的三条线组成了一个完整的故事 缺一不可 其中通过金球来讽刺人形 运用路边野餐理论来抨击当时颇为自大的第三类接触和外星人入侵题材 为费米悖论提供了一种独特的解释 虽然老塔的电影仅采用了部分设定和最后一章的内容 但却拍出了本质 拍出了灵魂

“在本书问世的年代,以普通人作为主要人物的科幻小说是极为罕见的。”这本书开篇勒古恩就这么写了,全书也正如此,是一群小人物的命运悲欢。外星人或许无心的造访所留下的却是整个人类社会的巨变和震动…全书行文很难不感受到对人类自身对自然/其他非人生物的所作所为的讽刺。这是一个粗砺冷硬的故事,世间险恶,主角难以以个人好恶评价,只能说偶尔能从他的内心中窥见人性和善意的闪光已经是其极限。比较明显的缺点是女性角色基... “在本书问世的年代,以普通人作为主要人物的科幻小说是极为罕见的。”这本书开篇勒古恩就这么写了,全书也正如此,是一群小人物的命运悲欢。外星人或许无心的造访所留下的却是整个人类社会的巨变和震动…全书行文很难不感受到对人类自身对自然/其他非人生物的所作所为的讽刺。这是一个粗砺冷硬的故事,世间险恶,主角难以以个人好恶评价,只能说偶尔能从他的内心中窥见人性和善意的闪光已经是其极限。比较明显的缺点是女性角色基本都很扁平刻板,戏份也很少,没什么特别值得一提的。 (展开)

哎 真的以为会是像电影拍出来的一样缓慢沉思 谁知道又是一个故事书 一群底层punks没什么奇思妙想 唯一比电影好的是去Golden ball路上的景象细节描写 上回Solaris也是没把星球的大气运动景象拍出来
