星移記:羊毛記起源真相 (Hugh Howey)《末日地堡》原著小說三部曲之2: Hugh Howey : 2049 Hugh Howey Apple TV2023

作者: 休豪伊 Hugh Howey     譯者: 陳宗琛


  2049年,奈米科技已經登峰造極,發展出比細胞更小的微型機器人,可以進入人體組織血液,執行醫療。

  只不過,這種「奈米微型機」既然可以救人,以人類的智慧,當然明白那也可以用來殺人,而且當然更有興趣用來殺人。

  於是,世界各國爭先恐後發展奈米武器,而不知不覺中,全球已經逐漸陷入奈米戰爭的陰影。

  在美國,有一個人最先警覺到奈米戰爭一觸即發,恐怖份子即將威脅到美國的優勢地位。他是資深參議員瑟曼,任期跨越四任總統。其實,地球上權力最大的人,並不是美國總統,而是潛藏的保守勢力。瑟曼,正是這股勢力的代表人物。

  為了鞏固權力優勢,瑟曼開始黑箱作業,操弄媒體掩人耳目,以推動能源法案為幌子,暗中進行一個範圍遍及全球的毀滅計畫。

  再過不久,大氣中將會瀰漫著無以數計的奈米機,彷彿無所不在的懸浮微塵,殺人於無形,全球人類即將滅絕,只剩瑟曼建立的、象徵美國五十州的五十座巨型地下碉堡,幾萬個美國人像種子一樣被儲存在碉堡裡……幾百年後,地球會成為一個新世界……

  只有極少數人可以活著,其他全部消滅,誰死誰活,由瑟曼他們一小撮人決定……

休豪伊 Hugh Howey


  一九七五年生於美國,深愛海洋。高中畢業後開始替人維修電腦,累積資金,後來,他到南卡羅萊納州唸大學時,買了一艘破舊的小帆船,就住在船上。大三那一年,他忽然輟學,獨自駕船往南方航行,徜徉於加勒比海群島之間,途中並遭遇兩次颶風。回國後,他開始擔任遊艇船長,繼續展開長達七年的海上冒險生涯。第七年,他認識了一個女人。為了她,他終於離開海洋,回到陸地,買了一棟房子,從此有了一個家。

  除了海洋,唯一能夠激起他熱情的,就是讀書和寫作。他開始到書店擔任店員,同時每天都利用早上和中午午休的時間寫作,持續不斷。沒想到,這股寫作的熱情,卻為他創造出比海上冒險更驚人的生命旅程。

  二○一一年夏天,為了悼念一個朋友,他寫了《羊毛記》,並自費出版為電子書,沒想到這個故事竟然就此引爆狂熱口碑,開始在網路上瘋狂流傳,很快就竄上亞馬遜電子書總榜#1,而這股狂潮也迅速蔓延全球各國。「異形」大導演雷利史考特也深受震撼,迅速搶下電影版權,準備和「辛德勒的名單」編劇史蒂夫柴里安聯手打造年度大片,後由Apple TV轉手接下版權,於2023年推出科幻史詩劇集『末日地堡』。

Excellent Handbook!
Format: Paperback
This is a great book for anyone from beginner to seasoned activist. Kazu Haga breaks down Kingian Nonviolence and other justice and healing modalities in a way that makes them very accessible to a wide array of readers. I plan to give this to several elder activists - and my 14 year old niece. Haga breaks down the Six Principles of Kingian Nonviolence, Restorative Justice/Practices (RP), separates & defines four types of conflict as well as other clarifying enumerations of large concepts. As an RP practitioner, I found his handling of restorative work to be excellent, and I found the Kingian principles revelatory and beautiful. Kingian Nonviolence dispels the myth that nonviolence is passivity "Nonviolence is not about what not to do. It is about what you are going to do", and has clear steps toward justice and conflict work that have proven efficacy. Haga's handling of nuance and contradiction is unique and powerful, as well as his personal approach to understanding alternate perspectives (listening to right wing radio on regular basis - with an open mind -for instance). More than one thing can be true at the same time, we can expand to hold contradiction, and still seek accountability and healing. The clarity of why shaming and punishment doesn't work for preventing future harm, or healing harm that has occurred is present not only in the concepts in the book, but his personal experience via years of offering trainings in prisons. There is still a lot of resistance to RP and nonviolent approaches to harm - especially in Law Enforcement and Corrections, and I think the accessibility and clarity in this book are useful to help naysayers possibly see the light of why these healing and justice practices ultimately protect us all.

This is the one
Format: Paperback
If you read one book this year about how to deal with conflict, this is the one. His language is crisp, his examples simple to understand, his reasoning is easy to follow. Best of all, he interprets Dr. King's Philosophy of Nonviolence through his own, hard-won experience with organizing in Oakland, CA, Occupy Wall Street and myriad other struggles. All that experience has taught him that Dr. King was right to focus on relationship building. Kazu asks the hard questions, toughs out the answers, learns from myriad mistakes and shares his hard-won lessons with us. He also references some great resources. I gave this book 5 stars. Normally I would have awarded 4 stars, because there are some typos sprinkled throughout the book. However, I added back that star because the book is so very well-written, absolutely authentic to the Kingian Nonviolence curriculum, and urgently useful NOW. Kingian Nonviolence (not non-violence) is more useful and effective than any other strategy, for the long-term, and often for the short term as well. Let's build this world of Beloved Community. Thank you Kazu, Dr. Lafayette, and Dr. King, for giving us a head start.

The Inner Game of World Changing
Format: Kindle
This book bridges the gap between activism and spirituality, making the argument that the world will never change for the better in a lasting way without both working together. Yes, the systems of injustice must be dismantled, but it will be impossible to build new systems that work for all without the inner foundations spelled out in this book. Yes, we need to love one another, but we also need to deal with the material realities of injustice and oppression. Without the principles laid out in this book, we are left with a toxic culture of shaming and ineffectual anger on the side of the activists and a loving but disconnected-from-reality culture on the side of the spiritual while the violence-fueled industrial-growth complex goes on wreaking its destruction. If you despair of things ever changing for the better, read this book. It's THE way forward.
