dbo:abstract
  • Slave Ship is a 1956 short science fiction novel by American writer Frederik Pohl, originally serialized in Galaxy. The scene is a world in the throes of a low-intensity global war, which appears to be an amplified representation of the Vietnam War, in which the U.S. was just beginning to be involved. The plot involves telepathy, speaking to animals, and, in the last few pages, an invasion by extraterrestrials. The nominal adversaries in the novel are known as "cow-dyes", a corruption of Caodai, a religion of Vietnamese origin. On the American side, telepaths, who are used in espionage and other covert activities, are falling victim to "the glotch", a fatal affliction which is believed to be a Caodai bio-weapon, transmitted telepathically.

  • Le navi di Pavlov (Slave Ship), edito anche come L'insidia del Glotch, è un romanzo breve di fantascienza del 1956 dello scrittore statunitense Frederik Pohl, originariamente pubblicato a puntate nella rivista Galaxy e in volume nel 1957. Lo scenario è un mondo in preda a una guerra globale a bassa intensità, che pare una rappresentazione amplificata del guerra del Vietnam, nella quale gli Stati Uniti stavano appena cominciando a essere coinvolti. La trama comprende telepatia, linguaggio degli animali e, nelle ultime pagine, una invasione aliena. (it)
