 About The Girl Who Walked Through Walls

In The Girl Who Walked Through Walls, Teo Kok Keong presents eight visionary science fiction stories that explore the collision and entanglement of various systems.

出版物簡介

  這裡是小島,是城市,也是國家,更是幾百萬島民心之所向的家園。每座島嶼都有其地理演變的過程,每座城市都充滿了故事,每個國家都有掙扎過的歷史,每個「家」都是由人的愛恨聯繫起來的。張國強通過八篇富有前瞻性的科幻預言小說,讓各種體系相互壓縮、碰撞和糾纏,試圖將紛繁蕪雜的表象錘煉成脈絡清晰的情節,讓讀者在各種紙醉金迷、人情義理中體驗出「人性」與「科技」在這時代裡的微妙關係。
