Considered an 'audacious' second novel, GIOVANNI'S ROOM is set in the 1950s Paris of American expatriates, liaisons, and violence. This now-classic story of a fated love triangle explores, with uncompromising clarity, the conflicts between desire, conventional morality and sexual identity.

在读 Giovanni’s Room
via徐慢懒。ITA要演了我才临时抱佛脚来读,且又是趁出门才看得进书。拜冬令时所赐本该美丽的Taormina-Palermo沿海列车只看了一个小时到Messina就日落了,正好读书,巧的是Giovanni也是典型意大利名字。
好难讲如何看待主角,因为他绝不是招人喜欢的类型,甚至是我最讨厌那类典型纽约年轻白男,脑子一热跑去巴黎寻求人生意义了(说了好多遍了这就是我为什么不喜欢巴黎,太符号了)。刚看到Giovanni刚出场,对他的兴趣远超对叙述者的兴趣,或者说对悲剧命运即将降临的那种隐隐的期待。
