Here Captus was subjected to noise, cold, sleep deprivation and worse (the redactions keep the reader guessing).

在这里Captus经受了噪音、寒冷、不让睡觉和因为删节留给读者去猜测的更坏的处境。

I grew up during the Space Race and the Cold War, and as I explained above, my father was an SF reader in the 1930s and I grew up reading his collection.

我自己的科幻故事总被人说是老式的。我成长于太空竞赛和冷战时期，像我刚刚说过的，我父亲喜欢读30年代的科幻小说，而我成长过程中读的都是他收藏的书。
