Ушел из жизни фантаст Кристофер Прист, автор "Престижа" и других романов, умер в 80 лет
Фильм «Престиж» Кристофера Нолана - не что иное, как экранизация одноименного романа Приста.
It featured a cover photo by Eliot R. Minister Darryl Cherry and the Covenant Mass Choir RWM-4445 , a full concert multitrack recording featuring an 85-voice choir and 10-piece band including Priest playing bass guitar on two selections. The album was recorded before a live concert audience in New Brunswick, New Jersey.
It is simply impossible to go back the way we came from. A misguided attempt to do so will lead to a memorable experience. So we are there to do the only thing allowed to us — to wait in a state of suspense, a herded passenger. But then Airside is a Christopher Priest novel, where even the most everyday things can become something of interest. The other thing to remember with a Christopher Priest novel is that the author often approaches the plot obliquely.
Things are never approached head-on. Instead, the story builds by showing the reader elements that first seem relatively unrelated or barely related to what we think is the main story. Like the reader, he finds himself intrigued by the mystery — Where did she go? Was she really dead? Who was the mysterious man who sat beside her on the flight across from New York?
The Man of Steel, home much sooner than expected, reveals he has, in fact, been lost in space for 20 years. Nothing and no one seem familiar to him anymore, and the timeless bond between them has been severed…or has it? Can love conquer all?

К 80-летию со дня рождения Кристофера Приста
In an interview with Newsarama promoting his upcoming Vampirella series, Christopher Priest was extremely honest about what the new series would entail. In fact, he noted that Vampirella will be arriving in the real world. To elucidate this point, Priest discussed how people would react when they see Vampirella wearing her classic costume designed by Trina Robbins. Who gets to define femininity and why should an extraterrestrial have to submit to that definition? So we now have heightened scrutiny of themes and behaviors and that poor bastard Joe Biden gets caught up in the switches. I accepted the gig: write Vampirella. Frankly, her costume is the only thing about her well, okay, that and her pansexuality that makes her at all shocking or controversial. The storyline is driven by women, mostly populated by women, of all shapes and sizes and ethnicities, and most of them dress as sexy as they dare.
Кристофер Прист был лауреатом премий Британской ассоциации научной фантастики и Артура Кларка, Всемирной премии фэнтези, мемориальной премии Джеймса Тейта Блэка и других.

Об утрате Кристофера Приста сообщила его жена, также известная писатель-фантаст Нина Аллан, отметив, что он ушел мирно, окруженный любовью.
Tom Clancy, rest his soul, could write anything. I was really polite about it and told DC thank you for calling, blah, blah, blah. Then a day or two later I got another call from DC, and they asked me about Deathstroke. I left comics because they stopped offering me anything but black characters. Now, ironically, both Marvel and DC and some of the independents, are talking about a whole range of things. Do you think most other writers of color in comics are still facing that same problem? I would imagine so. I really felt that for many years when people picked up the phone to call me the first thing they thought was "black," and my suspicions were confirmed. I resented that. I can write anything. A lot of my co-creators of color and female writers can write anything. Just give them a chance. You have to become master of your particular universe. I wrote a novel called 1999. I knew nothing about Irish people, so I spent time doing research. I wrote a novel about a black female New York City arson investigator. I know nothing about being a firefighter. I know nothing about their apparatus or tactics, but you research, you get on the phone, you track people down, and you talk to actual firefighters. You find out about all this. Once you master this universe, then you sit down and start writing about it. I think I wrote a convincing Irishmen, a convincing black woman, a convincing firefighter.
Was she really dead? Who was the mysterious man who sat beside her on the flight across from New York? They are interesting on their own, and at times their choice is inspired. It seems that Farmer is destined to be in a place between airside and landside indefinitely until he manages to escape. Real-life repeats in film, which repeats in fiction, although unlike Nasseri , Farmer travels on to Australia where the story is resolved, albeit blearily. The last third of the book finds Farmer on a global tour, interviewing actors, actresses and film crew, and being a guest at various festivals. Priest does well again to create suspense out of what could easily be mundanity, but Airside is less of a mystery and more a thoughtful story of descriptive observation of airport lounges, international air travel and the human condition. Readers expecting easy solutions and everything tied up at the end may be disappointed, but for me much of the enjoyment in reading a Christopher Priest novel is seeing how the often disparate elements eventually interact, and Airside does not disappoint in that respect. It is a book where the journey is the important thing, not the destination, which seems somewhat appropriate for a book about air travel! In that respect, it is another success.
