SUMMARY:Babel-17\, by Samuel R. Delany
LOCATION:독수리다방
DESCRIPTION:Saved in Palaner as: saved\n\nPalaner match: 20% · why: lots of
  people going\n\nJoin us as we discuss Delany's Nebula award winning novel
 !\n\nPublisher's description:\n\n"Winner of the Nebula Award: In a war-riv
 en world\, saving humanity will require . . . a poet?\n\nAt twenty-six\, R
 ydra Wong is the most popular poet in the five settled galaxies. Almost te
 lepathically perceptive\, she has written poems that capture the mood of m
 ankind after two decades of savage war. Since the invasion\, Earth has end
 ured famine\, plague\, and cannibalism—but its greatest catastrophe will b
 e Babel-17.\n\nSabotage threatens to undermine the war effort\, and the mi
 litary calls in Rydra. Random attacks lay waste to warships\, weapons fact
 ories\, and munitions dumps\, and all are tied together by strings of soun
 d\, broadcast over the radio before and after each accident. In that gibbe
 rish Rydra recognizes a coherent message\, with all of the beauty\, persua
 sive power\, and order that only language possesses. To save humanity\, sh
 e will master this strange tongue. But the more she learns\, the more she 
 is tempted to join the other side . . ."\n\nIf you don't have a physical c
 opy of the book\, you can find a copy of it here:\n\nhttps://tinyurl.com/9
