A VIEW FROM THE STARS - CIXIN LIU GEBUNDEN

We're mysterious aliens in the crowd. We jump like fleas from future to past and back again 
and float like clouds of gas between nebulae  in a flash  we can reach the edge of the universe
or tunnel into a quark  or swim within a star-core. . . . We're as unassuming as fireflies  yet
our numbers grow like grass in spring. We sci-fi fans are people from the future.-Cixin Liu 
from the essay Sci-Fi Fans A VIEW FROM THE STARS features a range of short works from the past
three decades of New York Times bestselling author Cixin Liu's prolific career  putting his
nonfiction essays and short stories side-by-side for the first time. This collection includes
essays and interviews that shed light on Liu's experiences as a reader  writer  and lover of
science fiction throughout his life  as well as short fiction that gives glimpses into the
evolution of his imaginative voice over the years. Science fiction without guile  without snark
without ironic disaffection and all its exhausting modern baggage. It just asks what would
happen? Waits for someone to answer. And then it asks again.-NPR on the works of Cixin Liu
