Het onderwerp van deze roman is de menselijke beschaving na een miljard jaar. Deze is dan geconcentreerd in een stad, Diaspar, waar de inwoners leven in een nimmer eindigende illusie, en in een Arcadische samenleving, Lyz, waar de mensen langs telepatische weg met elkander communiceren. Beide beschavingen zijn de eindfase van een periode, waarin de mens de sterrenwerelden verkende maar uit dit universum werd verdreven door de Indringers. In Diaspar wordt een unieke mens geboren, die de stad verlaat, de illusie doorziet en erin slaagt beide beschavingen met elkaar in contact te brengen. Dit belooft het begin te worden van een nieuwe opbloei van de menselijke samenleving. De roman is erg boeiend. Een enkele maal is de vertaling niet korrekt.

A grand space adventure that imagines the far-flung future of humanity, a visionary classic by one of science fiction's greatest minds. A billion years into the future, Earth's oceans have evaporated and humanity has all but vanished. The inhabitants of the City of Diaspar believe their domed city is all that remains of an empire that had once conquered the stars. Inside the dome, the citizens of Diaspar live in technological splendor, free from the distractions of aging and disease. Everything is controlled precisely, just as the city's designers had intended. But a boy named Alvin has been born. And unlike his fellow humans, Alvin shows an insatiable-and dangerous-curiosity about the world outside the dome. His questions will send him on a quest to discover the truth about the city and humanity's history-as well as its future. A masterful and awe-inspiring work of imagination, The City and the Stars is considered one of Arthur C. Clarke's finest novels. Non sono state trovate descrizioni di biblioteche |

Un romanzo molto bello che non sente minimamente del peso degli anni e che ci proietta verso un futuro tanto remoto da essere quasi inimmaginabile, una storia emozionate e ricca di spunti di riflessione, una vera e propria lezione di Umanità che ci spinge guardare con occhi diversi ciò che siamo davvero e/o ciò che potremmo essere.
Una lettura consigliata. ( )
