Description


En hommage à ISAAC ASIMOV Premier volume du Cycle de Trantor, qu'il constitue avec «Tyrann» et «Les Courants de l'espace», «Cailloux dans le ciel» (Pebbles in the Sky, Gallimard 1953) met en scène un anonyme habitant de Chicago, soudain projeté au cours d'une routinière et nocturne promenade dans un lointain futur. Egaré, devenu exilé temporel bien malgré lui, le vieil homme va découvrir une Terre souillée par un antique conflit, radioactive, habitée par une population éparse ayant coutume de se débarrasser de ses vieillards faute de ressources suffisantes. Ce monde en déchéance fait désormais partie de la banlieue de seconde zone d'un immense empire galactique dirigé depuis Trantor, qui le traite avec mépris et virulence, réprimant systématiquement toute forme de rébellion et lui imposant une lourde tutelle. The first volume of the Cycle of Trantor, which it constitutes with "Tyrann" and "the Currents of space", "Stones in the sky" (Pebbles in the Sky, Gallimard 1953) puts in scene a living anonymity of Chicago, suddenly projected during routine and night walk in a future distance. Mislaid, become exiled temporal good in spite of him, the old man will discover a Ground soiled by an antique conflict, radioactive, inhabited by a scattered population having habit to get rid of his old men for lack of sufficient resources. This world in forfeiture is part from now on of the suburbs of second zone of an immense galactic empire directed since Trantor, which treats it with contempt and virulence, repressing any form of rebellion systematically and imposing a heavy supervision to him. Erstes Volumen des Zyklus von Trantor, den er mit "Tyrann" darstellt und "die Ströme des Raums" "Kiesel im Himmel" (Pebbles in the Sky, Gallimard 1953), stellt in Szene eine wohnende Anonymität von Chicago, plötzlich geplant im Laufe eines gewohnheitsmäßigen und nächtlichen Spaziergangs in einer entfernten Zukunft. Fehlgeleitet, geworden zeitliches im Exil Lebendes gut trotz er, wird der alte Mensch eine Erde aufdecken, die durch ein Konfliktantike, radioaktives beschmutzt wurde, gewohnt von einer éparse Bevölkerung, die Brauch hat, sich von seinen alten Männern mangels ausreichender Mittel zu befreien. Diese Welt in Verfall gehört von nun an zum Vorort zweiter Zone eines unermeßlichen galactique Imperiums, das seit Trantor gelenkt wurde, das es mit Verachtung und Heftigkeit behandelt, der systematisch jede Art des Aufstands unterdrückt und der ihm einen schweren Schutz aufdrängt.
