Sandy Lender | The Three-Body Problem Review and Discussion @SandySaysRead | Uploaded April 2024 | Updated October 2024, 1 hour ago.
#sandysaysread #booktube #bookreview
For the number 3 in the #ClockReadingChallenge of 2024, we have “The Three-Body Problem” by Cixin Liu and translated by Ken Liu. This is an honest #review of the adult #sciencefiction novel and not of the Netflix series, although we’ll mention my airplane conversation with a fellow passenger who watched the series. This review contains SPOILERS! #threebodyproblem #scifi #fullreview
Please Note: I do not speak Mandarin. I’ve tried to repeat the main names from a “translator” site, but I’m sure I’m failing miserably.
Also Note: The book is not totally linear, and I didn’t re-read sections after setting it down each time I became frustrated with it, so I may have mistaken the order of eight-year-response from the Trisolarans in my synopsis. I’m feeling fuzzy about the order of that particular response now that I’m uploading the video… The point is it takes eight years for them (for the listener) to get a message back to Earth after they receive the initial memo to the universe.
The Behavior Panel analysis I reference in the “glimmer of hope” discussion around the 20-minute mark is here: youtu.be/RcwoXX3NnI0?feature=shared
Here’s the playlist for the #reading challenges and reviews I reference in the intro: youtube.com/watch?v=RLl-0cNS0js&list=PLoQ6a0FHi22aQujjGaFdbB_gdwHSKpA7N
