书籍简介:
Paolo Bacigalupi's debut collection demonstrates the power and reach of the science fiction short story. Social criticism, political parable, and environmental advocacy lie at the center of Paolo's work. Each of the stories herein is at once a warning, and a celebration of the tragic comedy of the human experience. The eleven stories in Pump Six represent the best of Paolo's work, including the Hugo nominee "Yellow Card Man," the Nebula-and Hugo-nominated story "The People of Sand and Slag," and the Sturgeon Award-winning story "The Calorie Man." The title story is original to this collection. With this book, Paolo Bacigalupi takes his place alongside SF short fiction masters Ted Chiang, Kelly Link and others, as an important young writer that directly and unabashedly tackles today's most important issues.
作者简介:
保罗·巴奇加卢皮（1972~），美国当代科幻界引人瞩目的新秀作家，"雨果奖""星云奖""轨迹奖"和"斯特金奖"等诸多奖项的宠儿。他的一部长篇小说《发条女孩》（2009）就赢得了包括"雨果奖""星云奖"和"轨迹奖"在内的几乎所有幻想文学类大奖，并被《时代》杂志评为年度"优佳十部长篇小说"之一。他笔下的未来，散发着文明凋敝衰败的气息，从横扫各大科幻奖项的《发条女孩》，到这本短篇小说合集，莫不如是。细细品读，读者便会发现，导致文明日薄西山的，正是人类自己，或者说"人性"本身。
因为大学主修东亚研究，毕业后又在中国、泰国等地旅居过一段时间，巴奇加卢皮的作品往往带有浓厚的东方元素，如本书收录的《黄卡人》和《卡路里人》，就与东方背景的《发条女孩》同享一个世界观。
