Kurzbiographie
Miéville nació en Willesden, un barrio de clase trabajadora al noroeste de Londres, donde ha vivido desde la infancia. Creció junto a su madre, que era profesora, y su hermana. Sus padres se separaron justo después de su nacimiento, de manera que Miéville suele decir que nunca ha conocido a su padre realmente. A los 18 años, en 1990, se marchó a Egipto, donde permaneció un año enseñando inglés. Allí desarrolló un creciente interés por la cultura árabe y la política de Oriente Medio.

Rezensionen

Very British! I've read this book with a dictionary at hand. At times it becomes really difficult to grasp the meaning of all words and expressions. This might be something positive for some, who are more proficient in English language but annoying for most others.
I'm not very sure if I completely understood this book. This might well have something to do with the problem I've mentioned above. Though I suspect that it isn't always easy to make a picture of this sci-fi world of china mieville. Since language is an essential part of this novel it becomes a map of the story too.… (mehr)
