Recenzii de la cititorii Books Express

Onisim Sârb a dat nota:

Having read the book I can say it is quite interesting, albeit a little too mysterious... We are provided with too little information regarding the Visitors and all that they stand for... But what is bugging the eager and guilless reader is that the English translation may have brought over just too many language-specific terms and also impregnating the book with the American writing style. While this is, more or less, inevitable to some extent for all translated works, it unfortunately takes away from the original style and quality.

Descriere

New edition of this SF novel, from writers who began their collaboration in the 1950s.

Red Schuhart is a stalker, one of those strange misfits who are compelled by some unknown force to venture illegally into the Zone and, in spite of the extreme danger, collect the mysterious artefacts that the alien visitors left scattered around. His life is dominated by the Zone and the thriving black market in the alien products. Even the nature of his daughter has been determined by the Zone. And it is for her that Red makes his last, tragic foray into the hazardous and hostile depths

Recenzii

"Lively, racy, and likable . . . complex in event, imaginative in detail, ethically and intellectually sophisticated." --Ursula K. Le Guin
"Brilliantly and beautifully written . . . a truly superb work of science fiction." --"Infinity Plus"
"Amazing. . . . The Strugatskys' deft and supple handling of loyalty and greed, of friendship and love, of despair and frustration and loneliness [produces] a truly superb tale. . . . You won't forget it." --Theodore Sturgeon
"The story is carried out with a controlled fierceness that doesn't waver for a minute." --"Kirkus Reviews"
"Really interesting...a pretty wild Soviet publishing battle tale." --"Greyt Thoughts" blog

"If you're going to read just one Soviet-era Russian science fiction novel, it should be Arkady and Boris Strugatsky's dark, ambiguous "Roadside Picnic"." --io9

"[a] vivid new translation... it has survived triumphantly as a classic." --"Publishers Weekly"
"The Strugatskys' worldview remains both uniquely cutting and replete with humanity . . . The characters' conflicted views of their troubled world make for a read that still feels fresh today. It's also a book that's bound to make you feel a little less sure of humanity's place in the universe." --"Discover "
"No doubt: a powerful, classic work of science fiction. Certainly recommended." --"The Complete Review "
