About Our Diamonds – Homer

Everything you will ever touch is made of atoms. A knife’s edge, a mirror’s glass, a lover’s shoulder—all atoms. The source of the atoms is not a matter of scientific debate, though it sounds almost too magical to be believed: nearly everything that we are came from stars.

Of course, just because something is true does not mean it is not astonishing, improbable, or even inconceivable. A diamond is made up of just one kind of atom, many times over: carbon. Its complete chemical formula is exquisitely simple: C. Yet, as a matter of chemical fact, the same carbon atoms, differently arranged, yield not a sparkling diamond, but gray pencil lead. The diamond is in the details.

What makes a diamond a diamond: what it is, or how it’s procured?

As a substance, diamond is a marvel of the universe. Light travels through it at less than half the speed at which the same light passes through air. The resulting faceted refraction reveals the diamond’s signature “fire” —brilliant, fleeting colors that flash and wink from different angles. It is such an efficient conductor of heat that a handheld sliver of diamond cuts easily through a block of ice. It cannot be scratched, except by another diamond. Diamonds form when carbon atoms are subjected to tremendous heat and pressure.

The impressive thing is not that they can be made underground. Underground is, after all, the stage for many astonishing phenomena,
like undersea volcanoes that expel glowing magma into the deep ocean, and car-sized milky white selenite crystals that jut out of subterranean caves. The truly remarkable feat is that, after only a few decades of research (a fraction of a blink on the geologic time scale), human beings have discovered how to recreate the natural process that forms diamonds, at will.

Homer’s diamonds are formed under the supervision of a team of materials engineers in the United States.   At our factory, it takes a diamond to make a diamond: each diamond enters existence as a 1/400th carat natural diamond seed. Over the course of four weeks—the same amount of time needed to form a diamond within the earth’s mantle—machinery precision-deposits layers of carbon over the diamond seed, and subjects it to the tremendous pressure and white hot temperatures necessary to form the stones the old fashioned way. The result is the real thing. Not a replica of a diamond, or a close approximation, or a sparkly stone of similar substance. Each diamond is cut, polished, and inspected to meet Homer’s exacting standards before being independently graded by the International Gem Institute.

The final product is pure diamond—down to the atoms.

Kim Stanley Robinson. "New York 2140"

Per. from English. A. Ageeva

Moscow: Eksmo, Fanzon, 2019

Venice, due to its unique position, is one of the most ancient cities in the world. New York, due to its unique position, is one of the most dynamic and future-oriented. Nevertheless, the genetic continuity of the two cities on the water is obvious to anyone who has visited both. Not only Brodsky, whose love for this city has become legendary, but also, for example, about. Tikhon Shevkunov , who in his journalistic-(alternative-)historical film “The Death of the Empire. The Byzantine Lesson (2008) directly compared the insidious Venice, the destroyer of holy Byzantium, with the insidious New York, plotting against whoever.

The American science fiction writer Kim S. Robinson has also clearly been to Venice and New York and also builds his extensive 600-page novel on the ingenious assumption that as a result of the melting of ice caps at the poles, the water level in Hudson Bay rose by 15 meters and the Big Apple naturally turned into the Venice of the 22nd century: streets and avenues turned into canals, the famous 20th-century skyscrapers in Downtown and Midtown became man-made communal islands, and new graphene super-skyscrapers of three hundred floors rose in the north of the city. But New Yorkers, of course, remained New Yorkers: they are just as adventurous and neurotic, they also pay crazy money for parking (not cars, but boats, but what's the difference), they speculate on the stock exchanges with inspiration and flirt prudently in bars, just as they look for treasures literally under their feet (in this case, under water) and make money literally in heaven.

Robinson is sometimes called “the best science fiction writer of today” for a reason: his Venice-New York fantasy is carefully crafted and inspired. In Russian, the novel sometimes sounds strange - but this is rather not evidence of the haste of the translator or the negligence of the editor, but a clear sign that they have to choose words in Russian for concepts that were hitherto uncharacteristic of the Russian language. And not only in what concerns the hypothetical future. But also, for example, to the love of stock brokers:

“I'm like a hummingbird,” I muttered, quoting my father. I tried to show it by pecking at her ear, and she chuckled and reached out to me. Her dress was already pulled up to her waist, and her underwear, like most women, was easy to pull off. The kisses took my breath away.

"You're going long," she purred as she straddled me and kissed me again and again.

"Coming in," I confirmed.

"And I'm having a little liquidity crunch," she continued.

- Beginning.

Well, the development of a new language is also one of the first tasks of science fiction literature.

Maria Buras. “Truth exists. The life of Andrey Zaliznyak in the stories of its participants" M.: Individuum, 2019

The unexpected (at least for outsiders) and painfully prickly death of many of the outstanding linguist, one of the few famous academicians in the humanities Andrei Anatolyevich Zaliznyak (1935-2017) has made the appearance of this book almost inevitable in modern times. Firstly, Andrei Zaliznyak was indeed a very prominent scientist. Moreover, in a field that pretends to be humanitarian, but in fact requires clarity of thinking, not accessible to every mathematician. Only the fundamental "Grammar Dictionary of the Russian Language" (which formed, among other things, the basis of the Yandex search algorithm) has already been a monument of scientific thought for many decades. And it was also Zaliznyak who made birch bark letters from ancient artifacts, such as ancient Egyptian papyri with their picturesque ibises and Osiris, monuments of ancient Russian writing, and he also proved by strictly scientific methods that “The Tale of Igor's Campaign” is also a monument of ancient Russian literature, and not a clever forgery of the 18th century, as it became fashionable to think in the era of fake news. And most importantly - his whole life was spent under the motto, part of which turned out to be in the title: the truth exists!

Secondly, as a scholar who loves and knows how to give public lectures and pass on his knowledge, he left a lot of testimonies and was surrounded by a lot of students and followers. And thirdly, among them, of course, there were a lot of people writing - and capable, and most importantly, ready to spend time and effort to collect and organize a huge amount of information. This role was taken on by Maria Buras, one of Zalizniak's students and longtime interlocutors and, by the way, Maxim Krongauz's wife, which means that she is the mother of two journalists and media managers who have become famous Anna and Ekaterina Krongauz .

This book balances between journalistic and memoir literature. She absorbed a lot of oral and written testimonies about a fairly long life, which absorbed both the typical - the war experienced by a child, the thaw, the first steps of a young scientist and the public activity of a famous scientist - and the unique: a long internship unusual for a Soviet person at the Sorbonne, awarding a doctoral degree (at the age of 30) when applying for a Ph. 0003

1. Truth exists, and the purpose of science is its search.
2. In any matter discussed, the professional is normally more right than the amateur.

Evgenia Nekrasova. "Sisters" M.: AST, Revision of Elena Shubina, 2019

“Kalechina-Malechina” by Evgenia Nekrasova produced little more than a shock effect on the reading public, also because she, this same public, perceived it as the debut novel by a hitherto unknown author. But in reality, a small novel was preceded not only by screenplays, but also by a rather large corpus of stories, partly submitted for the Lyceum award, where Evgenia in 2017, the first year of the award, entered the top three laureates. Now published as a separate book, these (and other) stories not only allow us to trace where the terrible tale about the girl and the kikimora came from (the time for scientific dissertations on Nekrasova’s work is clearly ahead), but, more importantly, introduces a new an original storyteller, in both senses of the word - a master of an entertaining story (one can feel the script training) and a master of a short literary story that echoes the traditions of a century-old literary tale - Remizova , Zamyatin , Dobychyna . And the title of the phantasmagoric story that ends the book - "Unhappy Moscow" - directly refers to Platonov. Although its content is addressed not to him, but to us - today:

Nina had everything that a twenty-nine-year-old familyless person who rents a one-room apartment a hundred meters from the Third Ring Road should have. A mixture of distant and close friends, the best friend of Lyuba is a native Muscovite, who has suffered from a lot of things since childhood, a flickering physically close person, embodied in different people, and, of course, a matter of life.

Mikhail Poluektov. Sleep Mysteries. From insomnia to lethargy" M.: Alpina non-fiction, 2019. —

The heroine of the fantastic Unhappy Moscow, Nekrasova falls asleep, so that in the morning she wakes up a little not herself, but with some new unusual and even frightening property - sometimes with tentacles sticking out of the body, and sometimes with an unbearable hottie; but the author of this completely scientific book, a somnologist , associate professor of the Department of Nervous Diseases and Neurosurgery, is trying, if not to answer the question, then at least “mark the field” for the answer - what kind of state is this, sleep? Why did it develop in the course of evolution in all higher animals and why specifically in humans it is accompanied by vivid images - the very dreams that declared either prophetic predictions, or the result of "undigested" nervous activity, "dumped" by the remnants of daytime stress?
