Area X has been cut off from the rest of the continent for decades. Nature has reclaimed the last vestiges of human civilization. The first expedition returned with reports of a pristine, Edenic landscape; the second expedition ended in mass suicide, the third expedition in a hail of gunfire as its members turned on one another. The members of the eleventh expedition returned as shadows of their former selves, and within weeks, all had died of cancer. In Annihilation, the first volume of Jeff VanderMeer's Southern Reach trilogy, we join the twelfth expedition.

The group is made up of four women: an anthropologist; a surveyor; a psychologist, the de facto leader; and our narrator, a biologist. Their mission is to map the terrain, record all observations of their surroundings and of one anotioner, and, above all, avoid being contaminated by Area X itself.

They arrive expecting the unexpected, and Area X delivers—they discover a massive topographic anomaly and life forms that surpass understanding—but it’s the surprises that came across the border with them and the secrets the expedition members are keeping from one another that change everything.

用户评价

这本像是个长引子，只挖坑不填，让我想到当年追的Lost。不过，男女主角的感情线还是很吸引我。夫妻之间的感情总不比情侣之间的清晰明了，有些像悬疑小说，你到底还像以前那样爱我吗？我们结婚是为了什么？我们是不是还是比较适合一个人生活？整个探险，都是因为爱情。比较打动我的地方是，女主找到老公的笔记，看到里面夹着树叶池塘照片这些她才喜欢的东西，才发现，他们竟是如此相爱。所以，当我看到电影里面居然弄了个婚外情，让我很生气。

They exist and they do not exist. 《遗落的南境》第一部，2014年星云奖最佳长篇。

Mysterious, obscure, scary, many loose ends...

挺好看的偶尔浪漫一下都能把我惊讶到。consolation of authority这句蛮酷的，可以接着看一下本了。"have you been waiting for me all this time? Have I arrived yet” this is so sad.

大呼坑爹的同时又不得不为这种对生命、感知、科学和世界观的神奇描写感到惊叹…以及作为千古反人类者必须在被少少感动到的情况下依然坚定认为老公的存在毫无必要是个败笔…（非常非常好奇电影会拍成什么样
