It waited ten years for publication in the People's Republic of China because publishers found its tone too dark.

Reviews

[Christopher · Rating 1 out of 5]

This strange novel is a Chinese nationalist's wet dream. Japan has literally sunk into the sea. The US has again descended into civil war (but not before eliminating African Americans through gene editing), and low and behold, China has taken its rightful place among nations as a shining beacon of innovation and prosperity. Han Song's book is riddled with race essentialism. Japanese characters are cruel *because* they are Japanese. American and European characters are deceitful and cowardly *because* they are white. Chinese characters are wise and generous *because* they are Chinese. Any time a character breaks with a crude racial or ethnic stereotype, the author makes a special note of this shocking event. The only good thing I have to say about this book is that some of the descriptions of scenes and places were well done.

终于有时间读完了。这本书的主人公是一位16岁少年，让我总是想起《海边的卡夫卡》“世界最强十五岁少年”。韩松对于少年的那点心思，以及青春期对于世界的认知和成长过程写得太好。如果由他来写《超新星纪元》，所以可能要比大刘写得好得多。而且韩松所描绘的思想也十分诡异，比大刘更让人难以望其项背。
