					<description><![CDATA[A deep and meaningful masterpiece of science fiction, full of heart and mind-bending ideas. A true classic, Vonnegut will make you laugh and have you contemplating the meaning of lifeWhen Winston Niles Rumfoord flies his spaceship into a chrono-synclastic infundibulum he is converted into pure energy and only materializes when his waveforms intercept Earth or some other planet. As a result, he only gets home to Newport, Rhode Island, once every fifty-nine days and then only for an hour.But at least, as a consolation, he now knows everything that has ever happened and everything that ever will be. He knows, for instance, that his wife is going to Mars to mate with Malachi Constant, the richest man in the world.

										<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Long, long ago, as he researched into the origin of species, Charles Darwin had been inspired by the creatures of the Galapagos. Now, a million years on, the new inhabitants of the islands &#8212; the human survivors of the &#171;Nature Cruise of the Century&#187; &#8212; have quietly evolved into sleek, furry creatures with flippers, and small brains. All other forms of humankind have ceased to exist, finally made redundant by their own inventions.All that survives of their Big-Brain Culture is contained in Mandarax, a tiny electronic marvel which can recall any one of twenty thousand popular quotations from world literature, as well as translate among a thousand languages. Unfortunately, Mandarax doesn&#8217;t understand Kanka-Bono, the language of the cannibals who have arrived to &#171;look after&#187; the new humanity&#8230;Давным-давно, исследуя происхождение видов, Чарльз Дарвин был вдохновлен обитателями Галапагосских островов. Теперь, миллион лет спустя, новые обитатели островов &#8212; люди, выжившие в &#171;Природном круизе века&#187;, &#8212; незаметно эволюционировали в гладких, пушистых существ с ластами и маленьким мозгом. Все остальные формы человечества перестали существовать, окончательно ставшие ненужными благодаря их собственным изобретениям.Все, что сохранилось от их культуры Большого мозга, содержится в Mandarax, крошечном электронном чуде, которое может вспомнить любую из двадцати тысяч популярных цитат из мировой литературы, а также перевести на тысячу языков. К сожалению, Мандаракс не понимает канка-боно, языка каннибалов, которые прибыли, чтобы &#171;присматривать&#187; за новым человечеством&#8230;Книга на английском языке.</p>

					<description><![CDATA['A wise, winning and utterly charming concoction of fiction, commentary and autobiography' Literary Review'Timequake is sweet, wild and cock-eyed... Vonnegut has always had a true comic ear... A beautifully fastidious writer, utterly original' - GuardianAccording to science-fiction writer Kilgore Trout, a global timequake will occur in New York City on 13th February 2001. It is the moment when the universe suffers a crisis of conscience. Should it expand or make a great big bang? It decides to wind the clock back a decade to 1991, making everyone in the world endure ten years of deja-vu and a total loss of free will - not to mention the torture of reliving every nanosecond of one of the tawdiest and most hollow decades.With his trademark wicked wit, Vonnegut addresses memory, suicide, the Great Depression, the loss of American eloquence, and the obsolescent thrill of reading books."В феврале 2001 года случилось невиданное доселе событие - Времетрясение, - рассказывает нам один из любимых персонажей автора Килгор Траут. - Вселенная пережила острый приступ неуверенности в себе. Стоит ли ей расширяться бесконечно? За каким дьяволом? Не вернуться ли на пару минут к началу начал, а потом снова устроить Большой Взрыв?"Однако такой поступок требовал слишком большой смелости, и Вселенная вернулась всего на десять лет назад. А люди получили в подарок целых десять лет жизни и шанс переписать ее набело - ведь все ходы заранее известны!Захватывающая книга Курта Воннегута "Времетрясение" никого не оставит равнодушным.Издание на английском языке.]]></description>
