Příběhy vašeho života – Chiang Ted (2021)

The new edition of the cult collection of sci-fi stories that inspired the film Arrival. Ted Chiang explores with penetrating intelligence and creativity what it means to live in a world marked by deep uncertainty, yet filled with endless wonder. What is it like to carve a path from the top of the Tower of Babel through a heavenly vault as hard as granite? What if all our mathematics is based on a fundamental error and 1 + 1 does not equal 2? How do we communicate with aliens who use a language that transcends our perception of reality? The first collection of the American master of short stories seeks to find answers to these and other questions.
