书籍简介:
Philip K Dick's classic dystopian novel set in the future where the remaining human survivors on Earth must gamble for their future with aliens from Titan, one of the moons circling Saturn. Roaming the pristine landscape of Earth, cared for by machines and aliens, the few remaining humans alive since the war with Titan play Bluff, allowing them to win or lose property and also form new marriages in order to maximise the remote chance some pairings will produce a child. When Pete Garden, a particularly suicidal member of the Pretty Blue Fox game-playing group, loses his current wife and his deed to Berkeley, he stumbles upon a far bigger, more sinister version of the game. The telepathic, slug-like Vugs of Titan are the players and at stake is the Earth itself. The Game-Players of Titan is a brilliantly conceived vision of a future dystopia, full of imaginative detail, moments of pure humour and thought-provoking musings on the nature of perception, as the seemingly straightforward narrative soon turns into a tumultuous nightmare of delusion, precognition and conspiracy.
作者简介:
菲利普·迪克(1928-1982)
美国著名科幻作家。他的一生虽然只有短短的53年,却创作了36部长篇小说和5部短篇小说集。
他只得过一次雨果奖、一次约翰•坎贝尔纪念奖,却被称为“科幻作家的科幻作家”——因为他的创意和点子层出不穷,成为无数科幻作家借鉴的创作素材库。出于同样的原因,好莱坞也将迪克的作品视为宝库,计有11部他的小说13次被改编成影视作品,包括《银翼杀手》《宇宙威龙》《少数派报告》《记忆裂痕》等经典,堪称好莱坞科幻的灵感之源。
