Se gli uomini avessero costruito una torre fino al cielo? Se un farmaco incrementasse l'intelligenza? Se i fondamenti della matematica fossero arbitrari e inconsistenti? Se l'esposizione a una scrittura aliena modificasse la nostra percezione del tempo? Se una scienza del dare nomi chiamasse alla vita la materia inanimata? Se la ricerca scientifica fosse monopolio di una casta di mutanti? Se angeli di salvezza e distruzione apparissero quotidianamente per le strade? Se ci fosse modo di rimanere indifferenti alla bellezza fisica?

Goodreads Review of Stories of Your Life and Others

5 stars

Ted Chiang is the best, and I think he needs no explanation. The best-known story in here is "Story of Your Life" (better know as the film Arrival). But, I think the best story in here is "Hell is the Absence of God." All of the stories left me thinking a bit after, and I'm continuing to do so now. The last set of stories in my version were also in Exhalation, so I skipped over them.

Some sci fi stories, some not, all good

4 stars

The two stories of 'Stories of Your Life' (the inspiration of the movie Arrival) and 'Tower of Babylon' are very readable. The others are still great, but get technical. Chaing really is a great short story writer if you like the media.

Interesting, but not a page-turner

3 stars

The stories were interesting speculative journeys, but none of them really inspired me that much. Read up to Seventy Two Letters, and then my loan expired.

Leído solamente "Story of Your Life", cuento en el que se basó Arrival (2016). Lo disfruté tanto como la peli.
