11. Pattern Recognition
11. 模式识别

By William Gibson. With this book, Gibson starts a new series, set in the present day. In fact, it’s so much like his futuristic sci-fi that it’s eerie. Gibson has a unique way of looking at our world.
作者同样是威廉吉布森,在这个故事里,吉布森开始了对当代社会的一系列描述。实际上因为很像未来科幻小说,所以显得有些很诡异,吉布森看现实世界的角度很独特。

12. Slow Man
12. 迟钝的人

By J.M. Coetzee. One of the greatest living writers of the English language, you could pick up any of his titles (Disgrace would be my other recommendation) and get an excellent book. Slow Man plays with the boundaries of fiction.
作者J.M.库切,是当代最伟大的英语作家之一,他的作品都很优秀(《耻》也很值得推荐)。《迟钝的人》是一部虚幻作品。

13. The Big Sleep
13. 长眠不醒

By Raymond Chandler. The best of the detective novelists, Chandler took the genre to new heights that generations of writers have tried to reach. He’s the best, and his writing is just as relevant today as it was when it was written.
作者雷蒙·钱德勒,优秀的推理小说家。钱德勒的这一作品将推理小说达到一个新高度。他是推理小说家的巨擘,即使在今天,他作品的光芒仍未褪色。

14. Motherless Brooklyn
14. 布鲁克林孤儿

By Jonathan Lethem. If you like Chandler and similar tough detective novels, you’ll love Lethem’s brilliant take on the genre. An excellent story featuring a protagonist with Tourette Syndrome, a killer giant and a Zen crime syndicate.
作者乔纳森·勒瑟姆。如果你喜欢钱德勒的硬汉侦探作品,那么你一定会喜欢勒瑟姆的同类型作品。这是围绕一个患有妥瑞症的伟大杀手和禅宗犯罪集团的优秀故事。

15. Gun, with Occasional Music
15. 枪,偶尔有音乐

By Jonathan Lethem. Another excellent detective novel, this one combines the genre with sci-fi. Features talking kangaroos working for the mob and other cool stuff.
作者乔纳森·勒瑟姆。这是他的另一部优秀侦探小说,它融合了科幻小说元素,最神奇的是里面有为暴徒工作的会说话的袋鼠和其他怪异事物。

16. Never Let Me Go
16. 别让我走

By Kazuo Ishiguro. It’s hard to describe Ishiguro’s writing, except that he really plays with whether the narrator of a story is objective or not. He plays with traditional plot devices and uses the reader’s curiosity of the unfolding story drive the book forward. Never Let Me Go might technically be sci-fi, as it seems to be set in the future, but really there’s not much sci-fi about it.
作者石黑一雄,很难描述石黑一雄的写作,除了判断他故事里的叙述者是不是第三人称。他擅长用传统的情节工具和读者的好奇心来推动故事前进。《别让我走》可能在技巧上有些科幻,因为故事场景设定在未来,但实际上整个故事并没有科幻色彩。
