He gives us the chance to reacquaint ourselves with the fundamental truth that in the face of a vast universe we are no more than a speck of dust That the Earth is just another celestial body ? And an extremely vulnerable one at that. In the world of literature, the Sun exists for no other reason than to illuminate the pure, unadulterated countryside, the Moon has no other reason to shine than to cast the shadows of the seaside lovers, if the universe is the Sahara, then all that makes the Earth a grain of gold within it, is that a particular bacteria called humanity clinging to its surface.? Liu Cixin uses the unique perspective of science-fiction to take us on a journey into this majestic, desolate cosmos. ? literature has always left me with the impression of indulging an intense anthropocentric narcissism.
Unabashedly classic in the great tradition of Asimov and Clarke, Liu Cixin’s science-fiction is firmly rooted in the cosmic. ?The Wandering Earth? is a collection of short stories by Liu Cixin, China’s most acclaimed contemporary science-fiction author.
