冬人·1·杰克·凯斯初见冬人时有些吃惊,甚至感到不安。当时他还认不出那是冬人,甚至不知道有冬人存在。那会儿他在城里一隅寻访他的妻子。几年之前他们恩断义绝,主要原因是他干空间飞行,长期离家,而她和他最好的朋友在一起了。一气之下,他几乎是立即返回宇航局,志愿加入了一次长时间的外层空间飞行。可现在,在两年之后,他想再见到她。按理说两年的离别应该消除他对她抱有的任何余情了,但他还是希望找到她。东寻西访使他到了好些地方,但一处比一处渺茫,最后线索中断了。 Winter · Jack Keyes first saw the winter when a bit surprised, or even feel uneasy. At that time, he did not recognize that it was a winter, even did not know that there are winter. At that moment he sought his wife in the corner of the city. A few years ago they deserved to say no. The main reason was that he was flying in space, leaving home for a long time, and she was with his best friend. Angrily, he returned to NASA almost immediately, volunteered for a long time in outer space flight. But now, after two years, he wants to see her again. It stands to reason that two years of separation should eliminate any of his remaining feelings for her, but he still hopes to find her. The search for a westward trip led him to better places, but one area was slimmer than the other, ending up with a clue.
