Overview

El libro que reĆŗne por primera vez los ensayos y relatos de Cixin Liu, el aclamado autor deĀ El problema de los tres cuerpos.
Ā 
La vista desde las estrellas recopila una gran variedad de textos cortos escritos en las Ćŗltimas tres dĆ©cadas por Cixin Liu, el mayor maestro de la ciencia ficciĆ³n desde Isaac Asimov, gracias a su obra cumbre la TrilogĆ­a de los Tres Cuerpos. Los ensayos y entrevistas que en Ć©l se incluyen explican algunas de sus experiencias como lector, escritor y amante de la ciencia ficciĆ³n a lo largo de toda su vida. Asimismo, en sus magistrales relatos de ficciĆ³n, asistimos a la evoluciĆ³n de su voz imaginativa a travĆ©s de los aƱos. El resultado es la mirada Ćŗnica de una de las mentes mĆ”s visionarias de nuestro tiempo.
Ā 
Ā«Somos alienĆ­genas misteriosos entre la multitud. Saltamos como pulgas del pasado al futuro y del futuro al pasado, y flotamos como nubes de gas entre las nebulosas. En un abrir y cerrar de ojos, podemos llegar hasta los lĆ­mites del universo, convertirnos en un quark o nadar dentro de un nĆŗcleo estelar... Ahora somos pocos y dĆ©biles, como las humildes luciĆ©rnagas, pero cada vez somos mĆ”s y crecemos como la hierba en primavera. Los aficionados a la ciencia ficciĆ³n somos los habitantes del futuroĀ».

ENGLISH DESCRIPTION

"Weā€™re mysterious aliens in the crowd. We jump like fleas from future to past and back again, and float like clouds of gas between nebulae; in a flash, we can reach the edge of the universe, or tunnel into a quark, or swim within a star-core. . . . Weā€™re as unassuming as fireflies, yet our numbers grow like grass in spring.Ā We sci-fi fans are people from the future."ā€•Cixin Liu, from the essay "Sci-Fi Fans"

A VIEW FROM THE STARS features a range of short works from the past three decades of New York Times bestselling author Cixin Liu's prolific career, putting his nonfiction essays and short stories side-by-side for the first time. This collection includes essays and interviews that shed light on Liu's experiences as a reader, writer, and lover of science fiction throughout his life, as well as short fiction that gives glimpses into the evolution of his imaginative voice over the years.

"Science fiction without guile, without snark, without ironic disaffection and all its exhausting modern baggage. It just asks what would happen?Ā Waits for someone to answer. And then it asks again."ā€•NPR on the works of Cixin Liu
