【書評】大森望編『ベストＳＦ2020』

創元ＳＦ文庫で続いた年刊ＳＦアンソロジーが、竹書房で復活です。

べストSF2020 (竹書房文庫)

• 出版社/メーカー: 竹書房
• 発売日: 2020/07/30
• メディア: 文庫

大森望が「2019年のベストを選ぶ」というコンセプトで集めた１１編です。
かなり多様ですが、個人的にはベテラン草上仁『トビンメの木陰』がベストです。
ショートショートに分類される分量になるかと思いますが、ショートショートらしい簡潔な冒頭と、その冒頭が見事に意外性のあるオチに繋がる構成の巧みさ。
ワンアイデアで書くＳＦショートショートのお手本のような作品です。やっぱり草上仁は素晴らしいです。
他に印象に残ったが、翻訳ものですが陸秋槎『色のない緑』です。
作家の力量もありますが、翻訳家も上手なのだと思います。これほど読みやすい翻訳ＳＦは久しぶりで、今後も注目したい翻訳家です。
巻末に2019年のＳＦ概要があり、ここを開いて次に読みたい本を探すのも良いかもしれません。

2019年の短編ＳＦを読みたいひとのために！

Members of the State Duma, the lower house of Russia’s parliament, will completely switch to domestically produced cars at work. The change was described as a way to boost the country’s automotive companies.

“It was decided that, starting next year, the legislators in their constituencies will be equipped only with vehicles manufactured in Russia,” the 450-seat chamber said Monday in a statement on its website. It added that the Duma’s Council adopted the decision unanimously.
Duma Speaker Vyacheslav Volodin was quoted as saying the move would “help the development of the Russian automotive industry, while state funds will remain in the country.”

X, previously Twitter, announced its decision to permit political advertising in the US from candidates and parties, along with an expansion of its safety and elections team before the 2024 presidential election.

The company now owned by Elon Musk has banned global political ads since 2019 but allowed cause-based ads in the US since January. This change could boost X’s revenue as advertisers have been cautious due to content concerns. X plans to counter content manipulation and create an advertising transparency center to display promoted political ads. The company remains committed to barring ads spreading false information or undermining election confidence. Criticized like other platforms, X faces scrutiny for its readiness post-Musk’s acquisition, especially after staff layoffs including trust and safety team members.

Difficult words: counter (to speak or act in opposition to), bar (to prohibit), scrutiny (careful and detailed examination).
