具體描述
TED CHIANG was born in Port Jefferson, New York, and holds a degree in computer science. His fiction has won numerous awards. His first collection, Stories of Your Life and Others, has been translated into ten languages. He lives near Seattle, Washington.
From an award-winning science fiction writer (whose short story "The Story of Your Life" was the basis for the Academy Award-nominated movie Arrival), the long-awaited new collection of stunningly original, humane, and already celebrated short stories
This much-anticipated second collection of stories is signature Ted Chiang, full of revelatory ideas and deeply sympathetic characters. In "The Merchant and the Alchemist's Gate," a portal through time forces a fabric seller in ancient Baghdad to grapple with past mistakes and the temptation of second chances. In the epistolary "Exhalation," an alien scientist makes a shocking discovery with ramifications not just for his own people, but for all of reality. And in "The Lifecycle of Software Objects," a woman cares for an artificial intelligence over twenty years, elevating a faddish digital pet into what might be a true living being. Also included are two brand-new stories: "Omphalos" and "Anxiety Is the Dizziness of Freedom."
In this fantastical and elegant collection, Ted Chiang wrestles with the oldest questions on earth--What is the nature of the universe? What does it mean to be human?--and ones that no one else has even imagined. And, each in its own way, the stories prove that complex and thoughtful science fiction can rise to new heights of beauty, meaning, and compassion.

我讀薑的七個記憶片段 文/舊書 如果有人問我最喜歡的西方科幻作傢是誰，我大概會張口就來幾個耳熟能詳的名字——阿瑟·剋拉剋，弗洛·文奇，羅伯特·索耶，乃至丹·西濛斯等等。估計要轉瞭很大一圈之後纔會想起特德·薑的名字。不料最近在讀完新版的《呼吸》之後，發現，薑，應...
評分##"Will it be preferable to remain mute to prolong our ability to think, or to talk until the very end?" Ted Chiang的語言怎麼可以如此理性堅定又模糊溫柔！身體和心都太感動???迫不及待標一下！
評分總結來說，我不太喜歡《呼吸》這本書，故事很碎，看得很纍。一本書由很多小篇構成，而且每篇都不能稱為一個完整獨立的故事。有的覺得意猶未盡，有的覺得不明所以，有的真實得像一篇科普。一句話總結，就是不對味。 那為何會選擇這本書呢？因為一是豆瓣2019年評分第一名，二是《...
