Just finished reading: #SueBurke's #DualMemory. My AI buddy, Adam, encouraged me to read Sue's work, beginning with #Semiosis. I bumped her to the top of the reading list and consumed #Interference and #Usurpation in a matter of days.
I'll read #ImmunityIndex after finishing #TheFifthSeason (by #NKJemisin) later this week.
Sobre escenas de sexo que reflejen que están follando sin ganas, un ejemplo que le da mil vueltas al #JuanDelVal es #NKJemisin, quien tiene una escena en #LaTierraFragmentada donde dos personas folla de manera mecánica. Y transmite esa sordidez sin caer en topicazos de "mi mujer ya no está buena".
'The City We Became' is a very enjoyable contemporary urban fantasy, in which N.K. Jemisin concludes her duology mapping good vs. evil onto tolerance/solidarity vs. the alt right. It's a lot of fun & very well written!

#OnThisDay in 2020, Sci-fi and fantasy author #NKJemisin receives the MacArthur "Genius" Fellowship grant.
I would have said I didn't like reading #fantasy but I accidentally borrowed The Fifth Season by NK Jemisin from the library the other week thinking it was SF, and loved it - now on book 2, so good!

'The City We Became' is a wonderfully written contemporary urban fantasy that redraws the map of good vs. evil to reflect the state of early 21st century politics.

Familia eta komunitate mota alternatiboak ZiFian
Zientzia-fikzioak familia eta komunitate mota ugari aztertu ditu, eredu tradizionalei aurre eginez eta gizarte alternatiboak irudikatuz. Hauek dira orainaldian inspirazio iturri izan daitezkeen adibideetako batzuk:
Ursula K. Le Guinen esperimentu komunitarioak
Le Guinek familia eta komunitate egitura ezberdinak aztertu zituen bere obran. The Dispossessed eleberrian, gizarte anarkista bat aurkezten du Anarres planetan, non familia biologikoak ez duen hainbesteko garrantzirik, eta antolakuntza kolektiboagoa den. The Left Hand of Darkness lanean, Gueden planetako biztanleak androginoak dira eta sexua alda dezakete; ondorioz, familia-antolaketa guztiz desberdina da, genero-rol finkorik gabea. The Word for World Is Forest (Oihan hitzean mundua bezala euskaratua) eleberrian, gizartea kooperazioan eta indarkeriarik ezan oinarritzen da. Bertan, familia nuklear tradizionalik ez dago, haurren hazkuntza komunala da, eta guraso-rolak ez daude modu hertsian definituta.
Diamond Age-ko phyle-ak (Neal Stephenson)
Eleberri honetan, Stephensonek phyle kontzeptua aurkezten du: lurralde edo ahaidetasun biologikoaren ordez, balioen, interesen edo kulturaren arabera antolatutako komunitate globalak. Phyle-ak klan moderno gisa funtzionatzen dute, kideei hezkuntza, segurtasuna eta egonkortasuna eskainiz, eta mundu postnazional bateko gizarte-antolaketa modu nagusia bihurtzen dira.
Embassytown-eko txanda-gurasoak (China Miéville)
Eleberriak shiftparents (txanda-gurasoak) kontzeptua aurkezten du, familia-egitura ez-konbentzionala, non hainbat guraso-figurak gurasotasuna partekatzen duten. Eredu horrek familia nuklear tradizionalaren aurrean babes komunitarioko eta malgutasunezko eredu bat proposatzen du, giza eta estralurtarren arteko gizarte-harremanak irudikatuz. Hizkuntzak ere paper zentrala du nobelan.
Binti tribua (Nnedi Okorafor)
Binti eleberriko protagonista Lurreko Himba komunitate batetik dator, familia-lotura sendoak eta tradizioan oinarritutako egitura mantentzen dituenetik. Bere bidaian zehar, beste komunitate-forma batzuekin egiten du topo, baita izaki estralurtarrekin ere, elkar-ulermenean eta eraldaketan oinarritutako ahaidetasun sinbiotiko mota bat garatuz.
The Fifth Season-eko comm-ak (N.K. Jemisin)
Comm bakoitzak komunitate estu bat bezala funtzionatzen du, non kide bakoitzak zeregin zehatz bat duen. Egitura hau funtsezkoa da taldearen biziraupenerako, batez ere baldintza apokaliptikoetan. Harreman aniztasun handia dago, eta Jemisinek kasten eta botere-harremanen inguruko lanketa sakona egiten du nobelan.
Hauek dira adibide batzuk; asko utzi ditut bidean. Besterik ezagutuz gero, animatu eta iruzkinetan edo Mastodon bidez erantzun.

First Monday Book Day: Inheritance
https://wgom.org/2025/02/03/first-monday-book-day-inheritance/
Pues acabó cayendo anoche, sí. "La quinta estación", de NK Jemisin.
La primera parte de la trilogía de "La Tierra Fragmentada" es un derroche de virtuosismo literario. Me la leí en 2017, cuando salió, y he vuelto a ella ahora que tengo la trilogía completa. La he vuelto a sufrir y a disfrutar a partes iguales.
No sé si en fantasía/sci-fi he leído alguna vez algo como esto. No es sólo la calidad de su narrativa, es que se arriesga con todo: con la estructura, con las voces y lo hace con una precisión que te deja con la boca abierta, haciendo que todo fluya como si nada.
Un libro duro para ver el mundo arder. Pero qué bien sienta!!!
