Roadside Picnic
Piknik na obočine
Bok av Boris Strugatsky och Arkady Strugatsky m.fl.
Red Schuhart is a stalker, one of those strange misfits who are compelled by some unknown force to venture illegally into the Zone and, in spite of the extreme danger, collect the mysterious artefacts that the alien visitors left scattered around. His life is dominated by the Zone and the thriving black market in the alien products. Even the nature of his daughter has been determined by the Zone. And it is for her that Red makes his last, tragic foray into the hazardous and hostile depths.
Jag tycker om det här. Gillar stämningen som boken förmedlar, den känns väldigt bra. Det är lite filmkänsla över den. Den är ju skriven på sjuttiotalet och det känns, men på ett bra sätt.
