Entanglement (dual language English-Italian)
DUAL LANGUAGE EDITION ENGLISH/ITALIAN
“The days of the lone ranger were gone; this was the age of the million heroes.” A journey around the world through the actions of ordinary people fighting climate change: from methane leaks in the Arctic Sea, to the Amazonia made arid by drought, to the floodplains of the Ganges and the phenomenon of fracking in Texas, all of them are linked together through the Million Eyes project, an experimental network that virtually connects people when they need inspiration and support. With "Entanglement" Vandana Singh gives us a story that combines the scientific accuracy of climate fiction with post-colonial Science Fiction.
The Author: Vandana Singh is an Indian SF writer living in the Boston area. She has a Ph.D. in theoretical particle physics and teaches physics full-time at a small and lively state university. Her recent short fiction includes “Sailing the Antarsa” in the anthology The Other Half of the Sky. Many of her stories have been reprinted in Year’s Best anthologies, and she is a winner of the Carl Brandon Parallax Award. She has a new website at vandana-writes.com and a blog at vandanasingh.wordpress.com.
“I giorni del Cavaliere Solitario erano finiti; questa era l’età dei milioni di eroi.” Un viaggio intorno al mondo attraverso le azioni di gente comune che combatte il cambiamento climatico: dalle perdite di metano nel Mar Artico, all'Amazzonia resa arida dalla siccità fino alle pianure alluvionali del Gange e al fenomeno del fracking in Texas, tutti quanti sono collegati mediante il progetto Milioni di Occhi, una rete sperimentale che unisce virtualmente le persone quando hanno bisogno di ispirazione e supporto. Con “Entanglement” Vandana Singh ci regala una storia che unisce l’accuratezza scientifica della climate fiction alla narrativa post-coloniale di fantascienza.
