【英文阅读好书推荐】
【Dark Matter -By Blake Crouch】

因为今年已经要过完了,所以我可以负责任地说:这是我的Book of the Year!

太好看了太好看了太好看了🥹
我并不是一个heavy reader,我读书一定是自己喜欢才读得进去。这本真的是我年度最投入的阅读体验。科幻作品、有点悬疑,中间有很多震惊和对人性的感悟时刻,根本停不下来,五百多页我一周看完(感觉视力都降了0.1

我想每个人应该都有好奇过:
What if I had followed the other path?
What would my life turn out to be?

就像我,总是会好奇
如果当时我没有选择转专业到英语,继续在软件工程专业学下去,我是会进大厂当程序员吗?会不会现在还没下班?

如果我保研时候选择了口译专业,我现在会做freelancer吗?可是那样就没有出国的那两年了,有点可惜?

Those are thoughts that everyone has.
Like the poem:
Two roads diverged in the yellow wood. I’d go back and re-choose if I could.

这本书就是以这样的“what if”开局,让一个本来生活平静家庭圆满的大学物理教授Jason Dessen,经历了一场袭击,坠入What if另一端的世界…

“When he wakes up, he is himself, but not in a world he knows. He’s not married, he has no son, and he’s not a professor. But, he is a known and celebrated genius who pursued his research to phenomenal results. He tries to make sense of his surroundings even as memories of his life seem to fade away.

What is this new world? Who is Jason Dessen in this world? Where is his family? And, most importantly, was the world he knew real… or is this the real one?”

因为这是一本情节性很重的作品,
所以我在此不能剧透
但是go read it! 你会喜欢的!
and you’ll find “it takes the age-old “what-if” question to a brilliant new level. ”
