Wall Of Darkness, The

di Arthur C. Clarke (Autore)

Scott Miller, 2023

In a world lit by a single sun, where no one has ever known true darkness, legend tells of a colossal black wall stretching endlessly across the southern horizon. Shervane, heir to a noble house, grows obsessed with uncovering what lies beyond it. His journey—from youthful wonder to the edge of the unknown—culminates in an expedition that defies both reason and the laws of the cosmos. The Wall of Darkness captures that timeless Clarke fascination with human curiosity and the perilous price of discovery. Arthur C. Clarke builds his tale with quiet majesty, turning a simple mystery into an elegant meditation on knowledge, isolation, and the geometry of the universe itself. What begins as a quest becomes revelation, as Clarke fuses emotional depth with scientific imagination in a story that remains one of his most haunting early masterpieces. Arthur C. Clarke (1917–2008) was among the most visionary figures in twentieth-century science fiction—a writer, futurist, and scientific thinker whose influence reached far beyond literature. Author of 2001: A Space Odyssey, Childhood’s End, and Rendezvous with Rama, he envisioned satellites, space elevators, and the future of exploration long before they entered serious discussion. His stories reflect an awe for the universe’s vast design and for humanity’s restless desire to understand it.
