In einer global vernetzten Welt sind die Folgen politischer Entscheidungen, ob sie nun in New York oder Bangkok gefällt werden, in allen Gesellschaftsschichten spürbar. Überkommene Traditionen werden infrage gestellt, Lebens- und Arbeitsverhältnisse neu definiert. Auch wenn wir uns darüber nicht immer im Klaren sind die Zukunft hat uns längst eingeholt.

More About Der Spieler
Knowledge is always two-edged. For every benefit, there is hazard. For every good, evil. Paolo Bacigalupi, Pump Six and Other Stories // Lately, he'd been looking at Starbucks baristas and wishing he had their jobs. Tall, grande, latte, cappuccino, skinny, whatever. Not much complexity there. And when you left work at the end of the day you didn't have to think about a fucking thing. Who cared if they made shit for money? At least they wouldn't have to pay much in tax. Paolo Bacigalupi, Pump Six and Other Stories // Knowledge is always two-edged. For every benefit, there is hazard. For every good, evil. Carelessness and convenient solutions lead to chaos. Paolo Bacigalupi, Pump Six //
This author doesn't seem to understand anything about human motives. At no point in any of the stories in this book did I come close to identifying, empathizing, or feel like I shared a genetic heritage with any character in any story.The settings were almost well constructed, but again, they were predicated on choices by society which... Stunning, distressing, sublime, depressing. All these words fail to describe the impact of the debut collection from Paolo Bacigalupi, Pump Six and Other Stories had on me. Each of the eleven stories in the collection could stand proud on its own, but together they make a hell of a collection.Normally I would be taking this time to... A fantastic collection of stories but heavy on the dark and gloomy. Simular to the theme you'll find in The Windup Girl. Makes most dystopian stories seem like a picnic in the park with crumpets and ladyfingers by comparison. Be that as it may, it's outstanding.
