在国庆假期,我把科幻小说《遗落的南境1:湮灭》看完了,下面随便说说感受。 一、一个不错的坑 这部销售的出品方营销上有两个着力点,一个是这部小说击败刘慈欣的《三体1》获得了星云奖,一个是好莱坞派拉蒙公司准备把它拍成电影,并由好莱坞著名女星娜塔莉波特曼主演。因为...

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.
科幻设定上很明显属于迷失那一类的挖巨坑而填不上,主题上也很难达到真正厉害文学的高度,不过那种字里行间那种biological/ecological horror的催眠迷幻感与subtly creeping uneasiness还是很厉害的,尤其是descent into the Tower和遭遇大boss一段,换成电影的话大概就是2001太空漫游里穿越时空那一段的观感。
评分如果一个人从来没有做过梦,他是不是就活在一场无法醒来的梦里呢?
评分和电影几乎是两码事…看完让人很质疑作者讲故事的能力,不过对生态学有了一点兴趣。
评分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
评分看完电影找来原作看的。作为一本探险队生物学家(相当于电影女主)的自述,整体调性隐忍而悲凉;情节上几乎一直在挖坑而没有给出任何确定的答案。作为三部曲开篇是很棒的开局,同时原著强调主观知觉感受的风格也确实凸显出改编电影的独特之处。
