This hard SF is full of lovingly lengthy passages of technical exposition about everything from quantum mechanics to artificial intelligence. But Cixin Liu supports all of that brain twisting theory with empathetic characters and a strong action-thriller backbone.
在这本硬科幻小说中,作者好心地为科技博览做长段阐释,从量子力学再到人工智能。而刘慈欣创造出引人共鸣的诸多人物,并营造惊悚动作片的浓郁氛围,来展现所有这些烧脑的理论。
For all its universal appeal, The Three-Body Problem is set against a specific backdrop, one that most English-language readers only know from a distance. Many of its major points hinge on the knowledge of Chinese history and culture — and while Ken Liu's translation is clear, tasteful, and lyrical, there's a lot of exposition to chew on. It's worth every ounce of effort. The book's well-earned suspense hinges on moral dilemmas thatresonate far beyond its nationality or even its heady, abstract physics.
《三体》这本书老少皆宜,其设定在一个特定的背景下,因此大部分说英文的读者不为熟知。书中的许多重点建立在中国的历史与文化基础上——不过刘宇昆的英译本脉络清晰、耐人寻味而又韵律十足。其中许多表述值得读者花上些功夫细细品读。书中所展现的道德困境远远挣脱了民族,甚至是那令人头晕的抽象物理知识(的束缚)。
