Wolfe, Gene. Calde of the Long Sun.

[American science fiction, fantasy, generation starship, far future, religion]. [Вулф, Джин. `Кальде Длинного Солнца` (`Книга Длинного Солнца`. [В 4-х кн.]. Кн. 3)]. Science fantasy novel (1994), the 3rd book of `The Book of the Long Sun` tetralogy. The novel was nominated for `Nebula` award (1996). The entire tale of `The Book of the Long Sun` is set within a closed universe - a vast `generation starship` (or a `world ship`). It is a single narrative, written down by a disciple of the protagonist who gradually becomes a central figure in the destiny of the decaying cultures of the ship. `The Book of the Long Sun` seems to have its roots some thousands of years earlier than the `The Book of the New Sun`, with which it shares much of the large-scale mythopoeisis that so profoundly characterizes `The Book of the New Sun`. `The Book of the Long Sun` is a part of the `Solar Cycle` (with `The Book of the New Sun`, and `The Book of the Short Sun`). [Gene Rodman Wolfe (1931-2019) was an American science fiction and fantasy writer. He was noted for his dense, allusive prose as well as the strong influence of his Catholic faith. He was a prolific short story writer and novelist, and won many literary awards. He was honored as a Grand Master by the Science Fiction and Fantasy Writers of America].
