Il n'y a qu'un seul reproche que je pourrais faire à ce livre : je pensais lire une histoire de science fiction。 Alors certes， science fiction， mais avec quand même du réalisme ！ Et voilà qu'au quart du livre， l'histoire se transforme peu à peu en livre fantastique。 Aucun problème avec la science fiction fantastique， mais ça fait bizarre d'avoir un changement de ligne aussi radical ！ Il n'y a qu'un seul reproche que je pourrais faire à ce livre : je pensais lire une histoire de science fiction。 Alors certes， science fiction， mais avec quand même du réalisme ！ Et voilà qu'au quart du livre， l'histoire se transforme peu à peu en livre fantastique。 Aucun problème avec la science fiction fantastique， mais ça fait bizarre d'avoir un changement de ligne aussi radical ！ 。。。more

This book taught me a lot， about life-religion-different views on life-truth seeking-dark side of humanity and also the good side it was well worth it。

DNF na stronie 222 z 612Nie jestem w stanie wgryźć się w tę książkę， w 1/3 dalej nie rozumiem sytuacji w metrze， wszystkie stacje mi się mieszają， gubię się przez natłok informacji。 Dodatkowo bohaterowie co chwila opowiadają losowe historie， które po pewnym czasie stają się nużące i irytujące。Denerwowało mnie też zachowanie głównego bohatera， niektóre jego decyzje były według mnie zwyczajnie głupie。

Powieść poważna， wręcz smutna。 Nie liczcie na wesołe zakończenie。 Niemniej， fascynująca lektura， którą świetnie się czyta。 Polecam！

След като прочетох "Текст"， импулсивно си купих всички книги на Глуховски， издадени в България， и започнах с Метро-трилогията （пиша това ревю， след като съм прочел и трите романа）。 Първото ми впечатление от "Метро 2033" беше， че си личи， че между него и "Текст" авторът е узрял доста。 В момента не съм сигурен дали преводачът е един и същ за двата романа， но като български читател ми се струва， че стилът в "Метро 2033" е непоследователен в сравнение с по-късни романи。 Спрямо "Метро 2034" и "Метро След като прочетох "Текст"， импулсивно си купих всички книги на Глуховски， издадени в България， и започнах с Метро-трилогията （пиша това ревю， след като съм прочел и трите романа）。 Първото ми впечатление от "Метро 2033" беше， че си личи， че между него и "Текст" авторът е узрял доста。 В момента не съм сигурен дали преводачът е един и същ за двата романа， но като български читател ми се струва， че стилът в "Метро 2033" е непоследователен в сравнение с по-късни романи。 Спрямо "Метро 2034" и "Метро 2035" този е най-дълъг и засяга най-широк кръг от теми。 Може би в известен смисъл не би било грешно да се твърди， че въпреки наличието на сравнително ясно отделен център - оцеляването на политическите идеологии в постапокалиптичния свят， присъствието на други теми， включително такива， граничещи със свръхестественото （на които не съм почитател）， разрежда наратива в немалка степен。 Поради тази причина по-точното центриране на наратива в следващите части， заедно със зреещия авторов стил， ме изненадаха приятно。 За съжаление образът на главния герой， с когото читателят лесно би могъл да се отъждестви психологически， си остава неразвит и в "Метро 2033"， и в "Метро 2035" （в "Метро 2034" се появява само епизодично）， макар и в последния текст от трилогията да има най-релефни психологически очертания。Що се отнася до идейното ядро на романа， книги с такъв замисъл трябва да се четат， понеже тук се проявява функцията на литературата да избистря идеи， залегнали в колективното несъзнавано。 Фашисти， комунисти， религиозни фанатици， анархокапиталисти， декласирани елементи - Московското метро е един умален модел на света （който впрочем се разпада в "Метро 2035"）。 Краят на романа пък протяга ръка към една фантастична （？） представа за бъдещето - съжителството на човека с почти също толкова интелигентна форма на живот， но и тук типичният безнадежден песимизъм на Глуховски удря с юмрук по масата и внушава идеята， че човекът е рушител на света си и на самия себе си。"Метро 2033"， макар и развлекателно четиво по силата на по-скоро непретенциозния си стил， дава на читателя храна за размисъл по големи теми， касаещи настоящето и бъдещето на човечеството。 Нелош ранен литературен опит на Глуховски。 。。。more

J'ai adoré l'ambiance。 Étant fan de post-apo， je trouve cette série très bien tramée。 On peut dire que l'ambience prime sur tout le reste， car le mystère de l'histoire mise davantage sur l'entrangeté que les revélations inatendues。 En tout cas je conseille au fans d'ambiences glauques。 J'ai adoré l'ambiance。 Étant fan de post-apo， je trouve cette série très bien tramée。 On peut dire que l'ambience prime sur tout le reste， car le mystère de l'histoire mise davantage sur l'entrangeté que les revélations inatendues。 En tout cas je conseille au fans d'ambiences glauques。 。。。more

I knew about the game before I knew of the book but didn't play the game。 I was familiar with the concept and was interested in the world building。 I read this at a time when most of what I was reading was post apocalyptic so I really wanted to like this book but it failed to interest me。It's like a bad movie that everyone loved， so I stuck with it wondering when it would turn around and redeem itself。 The ending only made everything worse。No Spoilers。The Artyom isn't a character so much as a ve I knew about the game before I knew of the book but didn't play the game。 I was familiar with the concept and was interested in the world building。 I read this at a time when most of what I was reading was post apocalyptic so I really wanted to like this book but it failed to interest me。It's like a bad movie that everyone loved， so I stuck with it wondering when it would turn around and redeem itself。 The ending only made everything worse。No Spoilers。The Artyom isn't a character so much as a vehicle for this story。 He doesn't really DO anything。 He's given a MacGuffin early on and everything that happens after is just a series of random events like tourist spots that are a must see along the way。 I'm amazed he was even able to walk with all the plot armor he was wearing。 Seriously， any time it looks like he might have to come up with a clever solution to the problem he's stumbled into， something else happens leaving him free to go until he needs finds the next Deus Ex Machina so we can be railroaded to the next point in the story。The character even implies， at one point， that everything that's happened to him must be a kind of god-like intervention making sure he ends up where he's destined to be。 All I could think was， "Did the author's creation just refer to the author as the divine creator？"Despite all that， the book wasn't boring。 The world is well built and I liked the different sections and sub-societies we meet along the way。 I was just bothered that the main character wasn't half a deep as the sheets of paper he was written on。 。。。more

Strašně dlouhé kapitoly。 Občas psáno trošku těžkopádně a vlekle。 Zajímavý námět a pohled na svět po jaderné válce。 Mnoho zajímavých otázek a věcí k zamyšlení。。。

A meandering trip through metro-as-metaphor for various social constructs。 I found it difficult to stay engaged。 There was some imagination put into the world building， but the descriptions are brief and rare so make sure not to blink or you’ll miss them。

Coherent and exciting。 Highly recommended。

J'ai découvert ce livre grâce à la série de jeux vidéo à succès du même nom。 Je lui ai laissé sa chance en espérant trouver une histoire plus profonde et moins axée sur l'action et le bourrin que le jeu （qui reste très bon au demeurant via son ambiance et son design）。Ce roman est complet et réaliste sur la formation d'une société post-apocalyptique souterraine。 On y découvre plusieurs factions s'arrachant le contrôle du métro moscovite tout en devant en parallèle lutter pour leur survie et repou J'ai découvert ce livre grâce à la série de jeux vidéo à succès du même nom。 Je lui ai laissé sa chance en espérant trouver une histoire plus profonde et moins axée sur l'action et le bourrin que le jeu （qui reste très bon au demeurant via son ambiance et son design）。Ce roman est complet et réaliste sur la formation d'une société post-apocalyptique souterraine。 On y découvre plusieurs factions s'arrachant le contrôle du métro moscovite tout en devant en parallèle lutter pour leur survie et repousser des hordes de mutants。La lecture est par moment une vraie épreuve tant l'histoire est pessimiste et l'écriture lourde。 On gagnerait à couper certaines séquences ou au moins en réduisant des détails peu pertinents à la trame globale。La fin du roman rattrape cependant certains écueils en apportant une touche d'espoir， bien qu'un peu tardive， ainsi que les quelques réflexions de l'auteur sur la religion， le pouvoir et la destinée/fatalité。On reste cependant sur le schéma classique du voyage du héro， ce qui reste efficace pour le premier tome de cette saga。 Je ne reste pas fermé à la découverte du second tome mais y accéderai avec quelques réticences。 。。。more

I loved this setting。 It was the reason why I picked this book up。 Trapped in the Metro beneath Moscow， humanity tries to survive after a nuclear fallout。 And I have to say at times I felt the claustrophobic nature of the setting。 But that's just about the only thing I liked about this book。 First thing you are greeted with is 50 pages of info-dumping。 Just straight info dumping。 Isn't this rule number one you learn as writer？ And it continues throughout the entire book。 The protagonist is a you I loved this setting。 It was the reason why I picked this book up。 Trapped in the Metro beneath Moscow， humanity tries to survive after a nuclear fallout。 And I have to say at times I felt the claustrophobic nature of the setting。 But that's just about the only thing I liked about this book。 First thing you are greeted with is 50 pages of info-dumping。 Just straight info dumping。 Isn't this rule number one you learn as writer？ And it continues throughout the entire book。 The protagonist is a young man who knows just about nothing about the metro and therefore prompts info-dumbs by other characters all the time。 It is not necessary to explain how there's a miniature faction of human believes in the metro。 Just show me things。 Next， the plot。 Ufff。 Meandering would be kind。 The hardships Artjom gets put through seem to be of no consequence and do not further the plot in any way。 His motivation is flimsy at best with putting his life at risk for some stranger he talked to for about 20 minutes。 Aside from him just being plain annoying。 I am not saying it's an unrealistic portrayal for a 17 y/o guy。 It's just not a very likeable character because of his stupidity and arrogance。The absolute most infuriating thing is that there is no female character。 Not one。 Maybe his mother。 Who died when Artjom was just a baby。 The only other times that women are even mentioned are when talking about prostitution or cooking。 There are maybe two women that get a name。 Both of them are only seen cooking or taking care of the children。 There is no discussion about that either。 They just。 Don't exist？ So yeah， despite being fairly famous， I would not recommend picking up this series。 Surely， there's better post-apocalyptic fantasy or Russian-rooted fantasy/sci-fi。 。。。more

I hate calling this novel overrated， but in many ways - when considered on its own - it is。 However， it's also very special due to what it created。 Dmitry Glukhovsky began writing Metro 2033 when he was only 18 and for some time it was actually a group project， wherein fans could take part in finishing the story by suggesting changes as each chapter appeared online。 Perhaps it is the author's then relative inexperience with writing sci-fi and this lack of a clear unifying vision that make the bo I hate calling this novel overrated， but in many ways - when considered on its own - it is。 However， it's also very special due to what it created。 Dmitry Glukhovsky began writing Metro 2033 when he was only 18 and for some time it was actually a group project， wherein fans could take part in finishing the story by suggesting changes as each chapter appeared online。 Perhaps it is the author's then relative inexperience with writing sci-fi and this lack of a clear unifying vision that make the book feel a little confused at times， but nevertheless it remains an enjoyable and highly atmospheric read。 An intriguing post-apocalyptic vision of life after a nuclear war for communities of survivors in the Moscow Metro。Glukhovsky took a slightly philosophical detour with Metro 2034， which was not fully successful， and finished his trilogy on a political note in Metro 2035 - where his literary style matured。 But several months after the second book's release in 2009， the author launched a project called Universe of Metro 2033; he invited writers from across the world to tell tales of the post-apocalypse in their hometowns and regions， within the limits and principles of the Metro franchise。 The series gained popularity and grew， becoming quite the success story in Eastern Europe， as writers from Russia， Poland， Belarus， Ukraine， even Italy and the UK， took part in the project。 It is here that some of the franchise's true gems were created， such as Robert J。 Szmidt's Wieża （The Tower） or Tullio Avoledo's Le radici del cielo （The Roots of Heaven）。The first Metro novel was adapted into a video game of the same name in 2010， in 2013 came its sequel Metro: Last Light， and finally a third instalment called Metro Exodus arrived in 2019。 A comic book set in the US came out and a film adaptation of the original Russian book is said to be in the works。 Even though Metro 2033 is a perfectly enjoyable post-apocalyptic novel， it's not really comparable to the classic sci-fi works of Stanisław Lem or the Strugatsky Brothers。 Nevertheless， it holds a special place in my heart and is of great importance as the spark that created a hugely successful multimedia franchise。 。。。more

Главната история ми хареса， Артьом много ми допадна и му стисках палци през цялото време。 Някои истории по пътя му бяха прекалено разточени， тази с Червея беше направо излишна。 Обяснението за Черните накрая беше прибързано и сбито， не ми се връзваше и автора не успя да ме убеди в идеята си за тях。。。Вае пак книгата е над 500 страници， а пък за самата развръзка беше оставил не повече от десетина。。。
