Des nouvelles de M. John Harrison
M. John Harrison (La Mécanique du centaure et L'Ombre du Shrander) est en interview sur Amazon à l'occasion de la sortie de Nova Swing aux Etats Unis. Un livre qui lui a valu le prix Arthur C.Clarke. Un livre qui a une forte filliation avec son dernier Light. Ca reste de la SF plutôt tourné Space Opera.
Voici comment il le présente :
M. John Harrison: It's about being a meme and not knowing it. The set-up is this: we are on one of the Beach planets. A generation--perhaps two--after Ed Chianese took his ship The Black Cat off the Beach and into the Kefahuchi Tract, part of the Tract has fallen to earth in a city called Saudade. It's a zone of the unreliable. It's infected with K-code: or maybe it is K-code, the wrong physics loose in the universe. Everyone is drawn to the "event site" like moths to a flame, from failed entradista Vic Serotonin to middle class tourist Elizabeth Keilar; from Vic's friend Pauli DeRaad, ex vacuum commando and all-round Earth Military Contracts factotum, to Lens Aschemann the dissociated police detective. They're all looking for something their lives don't show them. But for everyone who goes in, something new and weird is coming out...
Il évoque également ses projets. Il travaille actuellement sur un recueil de nouvelles cette fois et a posé l'univers de son prochain roman.
