Reading Circle 16: ‚Story of Your Life‘ by Ted Chiang (1998)

09.04.2018

‚Story of Your Life‘ by Ted Chiang

Sonja, Heinz, Thomas, Dee, Sandra and Andrew discuss this sci-fi short story. How does the linguist Louise communicate with the Aliens (‚Heptapods‘)? What do we learn of her daughter, who dies? How does Louise develop a new sense of time? In which ways is the film ‚Arrival‘ (2016, based on the story) similar, but different? And sci-fi as a genre? Music by Holst (from The Planets Suite) and Ligeti (Lux Aeterna).
