厌女 [图书] 豆瓣 Goodreads
女ぎらい
9.1 (766 个评分) 作者: (日) 上野千鹤子 译者: 王兰 上海三联书店 2015 - 1
《厌女》不是一部纯理论性著作,而是运用女性主义理论针对日本当代的各种社会现象的实践性分析。《厌女》处理了广泛的日本题材,其中既有文学性的,比如谈到小说家吉行淳之介、永井荷风、林真理子等,更多的则是社会性的。上野千鹤子谈到的许多现象,尤其是家庭的、婚姻的,在中国也有很类似的情况。知性的读者会从这些论述中获得强烈共鸣并得到理论上的指引。
光明共和国 [图书] 豆瓣 Goodreads
República luminosa
8.7 (161 个评分) 作者: [西]安德烈斯·巴尔瓦 译者: 蔡学娣 广西师范大学出版社 2020 - 4
“世界失败的那天清晨,人们正忙着搜捕几个流浪的孩子。”
《黑暗之心》+《蝇王》,一部虚构的美洲编年史,一部寓言式的现代启示录。
大森林吞没了圣克里斯托瓦尔的孩子,正如浩浩荡荡的埃莱河水带走了成吨的淤泥。大自然试图在孩子们身上孕育出一种全新的、陌生的文明,孩子们也试图在大森林腹地密不透光的树叶穹顶下创造世界。孩子是新世界的美梦,旧世界的遗民,如此野性,如此纯真。最终,他们以弃世的方式背叛了我们,而我们为了活下去,也背叛了他们。只有埃莱河依然不动声色地流淌着,像是一则寓意姗姗来迟的寓言。
如《百年孤独》般厚重,又如《佩德罗·巴拉莫》般神秘;既有浓郁的自然风情,又颇具知识分子色彩。出版当年即广受瞩目,一举夺得赫拉尔德小说奖。
◎ 内容简介
虚构的中美洲城市圣克里斯托瓦尔,曾经与周边任何一座大城市一般无二,地区的经济中心,种植茶叶和柑橘。随着小企业的繁荣发展、水电站的建造与河道的修葺,整座城市开始加入到现代文明的行列。人们如此沉浸在繁荣中,却不知他们身处的世界早已全然失效,变成了一个粗陋的、没有意义的构造,官僚机构像沾了胶水的网一般笼罩着所有人,生活像节拍器一样呆板而乏味,有的房子把它的住户变成了爬行动物,有的把他们变成了人,也有的,把他们变成了昆虫。
有一天,圣克里斯托瓦尔的街头突然出现了一群来路不明的孩子,衣衫褴褛,面黄肌瘦,说着无人能懂的语言。起先他们靠沿街乞讨过活,随即开展了一系列破坏活动。更令人心惊的是,本地的孩子似乎也被这种暴乱的气息感染了,有人声称能听到他们的心声,有人在暗夜里加入了他们的行列。在政府的搜捕之下,孩子们先是躲进大森林,后来又藏进下水道,在那里,建立起了一个名为“光明共和国”的法外之地……
“世界就是这样告终,不是嘭的一响,而是嘘的一声。”孩子们是新世界的美梦,旧世界的遗民,他们的出现,恰如一声轻轻的叹息,宣告了古老美洲文明的终结;如下水道中精心搭建的光之殿堂,破开了目之所及的一切迷雾。
◎ 评论推荐
巴尔瓦不需要任何写作上的建议,他早已创造出了一个完美的世界,早已拥有了一门与其年纪毫不相称的精湛技艺。——诺奖作家马里奥·巴尔加斯-略萨倾力推荐
在《光明共和国》中,巴尔瓦不仅运用了一如既往的大胆叙事,发挥了处理模糊情境的天赋,更增添了形而上学与暗黑寓言的维度,令人紧张而又不安,颇具康拉德《黑暗之心》式的犀利,呈现出了伟大文学作品的气象。——2017赫拉尔德小说奖颁奖词
合上书页时,你会被一种巨大的无力感笼罩,仿佛我们活在世上,却将永远迷失。而巴尔瓦写作的模糊性(一种严谨、精确而非空洞的模糊),帮助我们承受住了这种沉重的无力感。《光明共和国》是一部宏伟的著作,被一条深深的、不确定的古老河流贯穿。——《西班牙文化报》
事实上,巴尔瓦的重建过程展现了社会中几个重要概念的演化过程:暴力,童年,秩序,恐惧。这是《光明共和国》最深刻也最光明的核心。——《西班牙民族报》

8.7 (357 个评分) 作者: [韩]金爱烂 译者: 薛舟 人民文学出版社 2017 - 1
“韩国八零后天才女作家”金爱烂累积五年的八段人生
《你的夏天还好吗?》是金爱烂的第三部短篇小说集,共收入八篇作品。书中形形色色的人物大多面临绝境,赤裸裸地暴露在现实之中,却试图寻找渺茫的希望。尤其值得一提的是,其中五篇作品聚焦于三十岁左右的年轻女性,细腻地描摹了她们在爱情、友情、婚姻、工作等方面的心理状态,或许会激起中国女性读者的共鸣。作为韩国文坛*有代表性的女作家,金爱烂赢得了大量读者的喜爱,很大程度上归功于作品主人公的力量。

《始于极限》是女性主义先驱上野千鹤子与人气作家铃木凉美历时一年的通信。

青春期,上野千鹤子只身前往京都求学,只为逃离父亲与教会;同时期,铃木凉美为了反抗父母,一脚踏入出卖身体的世界。

大学时,上野参加轰轰烈烈的学生运动,却在战壕的另一侧目睹男生只把女生当作解决生理问题的工具;铃木就读于日本最好的私立大学,却要在夜世界寻求自身的价值。

学生时代结束,上野以独立女性自居,结果成了男人挥之即来招之即去的床伴;另一头的铃木开始书写夜世界的魅惑与肮脏,时常遭受来自女性的抨击与批判。

今天,上野已是日本女性学研究第一人,铃木则走到了夜世界的极限,在质疑过往、怀疑自己的同时,犹豫着下一步如何迈出。

我深感女人生存如何艰难。即便如此,读完这本书后,我觉得身为女人果然还是一种福音。——国际政治学家三浦瑠丽
Notes from Underground [图书] Goodreads 谷歌图书 豆瓣
Записки из подполья
作者: Fyodor Dostoevsky 译者: Richard Pevear / Larissa Volokhonsky Everyman's Library 2004 - 3
(Book Jacket Status: Jacketed)
Dostoevsky’s most revolutionary novel, Notes from Underground marks the dividing line between nineteenth- and twentieth-century fiction, and between the visions of self each century embodied. One of the most remarkable characters in literature, the unnamed narrator is a former official who has defiantly withdrawn into an underground existence. In full retreat from society, he scrawls a passionate, obsessive, self-contradictory narrative that serves as a devastating attack on social utopianism and an assertion of man’s essentially irrational nature.
Richard Pevear and Larissa Volokhonsky, whose Dostoevsky translations have become the standard, give us a brilliantly faithful edition of this classic novel, conveying all the tragedy and tormented comedy of the original.
Everything I Never Told You [图书] 豆瓣 Goodreads Goodreads
Everything I Never Told You
7.0 (25 个评分) 作者: Celeste Ng Penguin Press HC, The 2014 - 6
Lydia is dead. But they don’t know this yet . . . So begins the story of this exquisite debut novel, about a Chinese American family living in 1970s small-town Ohio. Lydia is the favorite child of Marilyn and James Lee; their middle daughter, a girl who inherited her mother’s bright blue eyes and her father’s jet-black hair. Her parents are determined that Lydia will fulfill the dreams they were unable to pursue—in Marilyn’s case that her daughter become a doctor rather than a homemaker, in James’s case that Lydia be popular at school, a girl with a busy social life and the center of every party.
When Lydia’s body is found in the local lake, the delicate balancing act that has been keeping the Lee family together tumbles into chaos, forcing them to confront the long-kept secrets that have been slowly pulling them apart. James, consumed by guilt, sets out on a reckless path that may destroy his marriage. Marilyn, devastated and vengeful, is determined to find a responsible party, no matter what the cost. Lydia’s older brother, Nathan, is certain that the neighborhood bad boy Jack is somehow involved. But it’s the youngest of the family—Hannah—who observes far more than anyone realizes and who may be the only one who knows the truth about what happened.
A profoundly moving story of family, history, and the meaning of home, Everything I Never Told You is both a gripping page-turner and a sensitive family portrait, exploring the divisions between cultures and the rifts within a family, and uncovering the ways in which mothers and daughters, fathers and sons, and husbands and wives struggle, all their lives, to understand one another.
We Should All Be Feminists [图书] 豆瓣
8.9 (17 个评分) 作者: Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie Fourth Estate 2014 - 10
A personal and powerful essay from Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie, the bestselling author of 'Americanah' and 'Half of a Yellow Sun', based on her 2013 TEDx Talk of the same name. What does "feminism" mean today? That is the question at the heart of We Should All Be Feminists, a personal, eloquently-argued essay - adapted from her much-viewed Tedx talk of the same name - by Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie, the award-winning author of 'Americanah' and 'Half of a Yellow Sun'. With humour and levity, here Adichie offers readers a unique definition of feminism for the twenty-first century - one rooted in inclusion and awareness. She shines a light not only on blatant discrimination, but also the more insidious, institutional behaviours that marginalise women around the world, in order to help readers of all walks of life better understand the often masked realities of sexual politics. Throughout, she draws extensively on her own experiences - in the U.S., in her native Nigeria - offering an artfully nuanced explanation of why the gender divide is harmful for women and men, alike. Argued in the same observant, witty and clever prose that has made Adichie a best-selling novelist, here is one remarkable author's exploration of what it means to be a woman today - and an of-the-moment rallying cry for why we should all be feminists.

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.
Sea Prayer [图书] 豆瓣
作者: [美] 卡勒德·胡赛尼 Riverhead Books 2018 - 9
The new work, entitled Sea Prayer, is a short, illustrated book which Hosseini wrote in response to the current refugee crisis and the haunting image of young Alan Kurdi, the three-year-old Syrian boy whose body washed up on the beach in Turkey in September 2015.
Sea Prayer is an attempt to pay tribute to the millions of families, like Alan Kurdi's, who have been splintered and forced from home by war and persecution。
And Every Morning the Way Home Gets Longer and Longer [图书] Goodreads
作者: Fredrik Backman Atria Books 2016 - 11
From the New York Times bestselling author of A Man Called Ove, My Grandmother Asked Me To Tell You She's Sorry, and Britt-Marie Was Here, comes an exquisitely moving portrait of an elderly man's struggle to hold on to his most precious memories, and his family's efforts to care for him even as they must find a way to let go. "Isn't that the best of all life's ages, an old man thinks as he looks at his grandchild, when a boy is just big enough to know how the world works but still young enough to refuse to accept it." Grandpa and Noah are sitting on a bench in a square that keeps getting smaller every day. The square is strange but also familiar, full of the odds and ends that have made up their lives: Grandpa's work desk, the stuffed dragon that Grandpa once gave to Noah, the sweet-smelling hyacinths that Grandma loved to grow in her garden. As they wait together on the bench, they tell jokes and discuss their shared love of mathematics. Grandpa recalls what it was like to fall in love with his wife, what it was like to lose her. She's as real to him now as the first day he met her, but he dreads the day when he won't remember her. Sometimes Grandpa sits on the bench next to Ted, Noah's father--Ted who never liked math, prefers writing and playing guitar, and has waited his entire life for his father to have time for him, to accept him. But in their love of Noah, they have found a common bond. Grandpa, Grandma, Ted, and Noah all meet here, in this peculiar space that is growing dimmer and more confusing all the time. And here is where they will learn to say goodbye, the scent of hyacinths in the air, nothing to fear. This little book with a big message is certain to be treasured for generations to come.
