The novel “The Long Twilight of the Earth” by Aldiss depicts to us the features of the development of the Earth in the distant future. After the planet's rotation stopped, the climate changed like hell, and plants took over the world. And unfortunate humanity has completely degraded... The history of the development of earthly civilization after 800 million years. A theme that permeates the entire work of a man who rightfully entered the world of science fiction as “the author of millions of ends of the world” and “singer of the Apocalypse.” The novel “The Long Twilight of the Earth” (another name is “Greenhouse”) received the Hugo Award in 1962, which, with rare exceptions, is awarded to non-American authors.
