【内容介绍】
回不去的故土,无法融入的他乡,共同缠绕成绕在脖颈上的枷锁……
亲友们说,来到这里,你很快就会有大汽车和大房子,更不必提包包、香水、鞋子和衣服了。可实际上,新的生活是在餐馆里打没有社保的工;是不断听社区大学的同学问,你在非洲老家是否住过真正的房子;是从那个对你欲行不轨的所谓的美国叔叔家里逃离;是为了给那个地毯上满是污渍的小房间支付房租而放弃继续念书。于是你想起,他说过美国是一个“有得也有失”的地方。再后来,你遇见了一个眼睛是高级精制橄榄油颜色的男孩,他喜欢非洲,却没有其他白人那种屈尊纡贵的派头。他还喜欢你。你也喜欢他。你想要喜欢他。可是你做不到。
十二则故事,讲述故土的历史伤痛与社会现状,也讲述移民离散迁徙的心路历程。
【名人评价及推荐】
非常有力……震撼人心。精炼的短篇小说世界非常适合阿迪契:她展现了一种罕见的天赋,就是能够将故事中的某一片段以令人难以忘怀的图像和姿态刻进读者的记忆中……这是一本非常扎实的作品集,其中涌动着一股令人痛心的暗流,讲述人生错位与身份丧失……这些精致的故事将把你带到你从不知晓的地方。
——《西雅图时报》
这些故事带着阿迪契标志性的对情感的深刻洞察,反映了两种文化的剧烈冲撞,以及个体试图调和这种裂痕的艰难努力。
阿迪契不仅对离散迁徙的经历感兴趣,她的故事同样探讨了不同形式的权力争夺,而她故事中的高光时刻往往是那些权力发生偏移的时刻。一个人突然之间的意识和选择,会让生活发生彻底的变化。这些短篇故事的结局往往寓意着这种深刻的改变,也提醒我们,阿迪契女士是一位多么杰出的小说家。读者非常愿意在她笔下人物的世界里再沉浸片刻。
——《金融时报》
不要被阿迪契的履历所吓倒,她的短篇小说集通俗易懂、引人入胜……在这些以尼日利亚和美国为背景的故事中,她谈到了宗教、腐败、尼日利亚内战,以及一个孤独的非洲妻子在美国的生活。然而,樶重要的是,她塑造的人物形象难以磨灭,他们跃然纸上,深入你的脑海和心灵。
——《今日美国》
杰作。这些故事以最短的篇幅展现了尼日利亚人的生活缩影……无论是作为一个人还是一位作家,阿迪契都在不断地反叛他人的期望——那些希望能告诉她这个世界是什么样的,以及她在其中应该处于什么位置的人的期望。
——《观察家报》
精雕细琢……正如17世纪西班牙作家巴尔塔沙·葛拉西安曾写的那样:美好的事物,如果简短,就会加倍美好。《绕颈之物》充分体现了这种精简的快乐。阿迪契在她相对较短的写作生涯中得到了巨大关注……这本书会告诉你为什么。
——《圣地亚哥联合论坛报》
阿迪契笔下的角色大多是孤身一人,飘零在陌生的实体或心理环境中……觉得没人看得见自己,觉得遭人抹消。
——《洛杉矶时报书评》
阿迪契在《绕颈之物》一书中体现的自我意识和不可预测让人心潮澎湃。
——《纽约时报书评》
我们通常不会把智慧与新人联系在一起,但这位新作家却拥有古代说书人的天赋。奇玛曼达·恩戈兹·阿迪契知道什么是利害攸关的,也知道该怎么做。她无所畏惧,否则就不会以写作直面恐怖的尼日利亚内战。阿迪契几乎是完全成熟的作家。

The Call of the Tribe [图书] 谷歌图书
作者: Mario Vargas Llosa Farrar, Straus and Giroux 2023 - 01
The intellectual autobiography of Mario Vargas Llosa, winner of the Nobel Prize in Literature.

From its origins, the liberal doctrine has represented the most advanced forms of democratic culture, and it is what has most defended us from the inextinguishable “call of the tribe.” This book hopes to make a modest contribution to that indispensable project.

In The Call of the Tribe, Mario Vargas Llosa surveys the readings that have shaped the way he thinks and has viewed the world over the past fifty years. The Nobel laureate, “tireless in his quest to probe the nature of the human animal” (Marie Arana, The Washington Post), maps out the liberal thinkers who helped him develop a new body of ideas after the great ideological traumas of his disenchantment with the Cuban Revolution and his alienation from the ideas of Jean-Paul Sartre, the author who most inspired Vargas Llosa in his youth.

The works of Adam Smith, José Ortega y Gasset, Friedrich A. Hayek, Karl Popper, Raymond Aron, Isaiah Berlin, and Jean-François Revel helped the author enormously during those uneasy years. They showed him another school of thought, one that placed the individual before the tribe, nation, class, or party and defended freedom of expression as a fundamental value for the exercise of democracy. The Call of the Tribe documents Vargas Llosa’s engagement with their work and charts the evolution of his personal ideology.
疯癫与文明 [图书] 豆瓣
Folie et Déraison: Histoire de la folie à l'âge classique
9.1 (87 个评分) 作者: [法] 米歇尔·福柯 译者: 刘北成 / 杨远婴 生活·读书·新知三联书店 2003 - 1
这部著作是对知识的清洗和质疑。 它把“自然”的一个片断交还给历史,改造了疯癫,即把我们当作医学现象的东西变成了一种文明现象。……实际上,福柯从未界定疯癫;疯癫并不是认识对象,其历史需要重新揭示;可以说,它不过是这种认识本身;疯癫不是一种疾病,而是一种随时间而变的异己感;福柯从未把疯癫当作一种功能现实,在他看来,它纯粹是理性与非理性,观看者与被观看者相结合所产生的效应。 疯癫不是一种自然对象,而是一种文明产物。没有把这种现象说成疯癫并加以迫害的各种文化的历史,就不会有疯癫的历史。

The Naive and the Sentimental Novelist
作者: [土]奥尔罕·帕慕克(Orhan Pamuk) 译者: 彭发胜 上海人民出版社 2024 - 1
★诺贝尔文学奖得主帕慕克的诺顿演说集,大师级作家的六堂小说课,精装珍藏版,装帧升级,适合收藏。
★帕慕克在这些文章里自如穿梭在托尔斯泰、陀思妥耶夫斯基、福楼拜、卡夫卡等文学巨匠之间,其讲述充满个人体验与灵魂气息,而并非理论化、抽象化的。这些文章本身就像是独立的创作,而不仅仅是对小说作品的评论和解读。
★“一部优秀小说的每一个句子都会在我们心中激起一种深沉而又真切的感觉,使我们知道存在于这个世界上意味着什么。”帕慕克在这部书里谈论了一个核心观点:现代小说与古代的文学不同的是,小说必须拥有一个中心,而这个中心也就是可以在阅读中慢慢靠近和体验到的小说的意义,或生活本身的意义。对于现代的世俗化个人来说,要在世界里理解一种更深刻、更渊博的意义,方法之一就是阅读伟大的文学小说。
—————————
在帕慕克的哈佛大学诺顿讲座中,他带领我们进入一场探索文学本质的心灵漫游,在讲述他个人的阅读与写作经历同时,深度解读了托尔斯泰、乔伊斯、卡夫卡、普鲁斯特、伍尔夫、福克纳等作家。
跟随作者富有深情的讲述,我们将见证小说在世界上投下的独特光线,并慢慢进入他描绘的那片宽广、深远与宁静的景观。
Martyr! [图书] Goodreads 豆瓣
作者: Kaveh Akbar Knopf 2024 - 1
Kaveh Akbar’s Martyr! is a paean to how we spend our lives seeking meaning—in faith, art, ourselves, others—in which a newly sober, orphaned son of Iranian immigrants, guided by the voices of artists, poets, and kings, embarks on a search that leads him to a terminally ill painter living out her final days in the Brooklyn Museum.

Cyrus Shams is a young man grappling with an inheritance of violence and loss: his mother’s plane was shot down over the skies of Tehran in a senseless accident; and his father’s life in America was circumscribed by his work killing chickens at a factory farm in the Midwest. Cyrus is a drunk, an addict, and a poet, whose obsession with martyrs leads him to examine the mysteries of his past—toward an uncle who rode through Iranian battlefields dressed as the Angel of death to inspire and comfort the dying, and toward his mother, through a painting discovered in a Brooklyn art gallery that suggests she may not have been who or what she seemed.

Electrifying, funny, wholly original, and profound, Martyr! heralds the arrival of a blazing and essential new voice in contemporary fiction.
三国志 [图书] 豆瓣
9.5 (14 个评分) 作者: 陈寿 / 裴松之 中华书局 2006 - 9
《三国志》(精)与《史记》、《汉书》、《后汉书》并称为“四史”。作者陈寿,以其史识及叙事能力,在当时已有“良史之才”的称誉。 《三国志》在二十四史中,有它自己的特点,它既不像《史记》那样的通史,也不像《汉书》一类史书那样的断代史,它平行地叙述东汉末年魏、蜀、吴三国鼎峙的史实。虽然名之为“志”,但是书里面只有纪和传,没有志。 本书是裴松之的注释本。从现代人的角度论,裴注不单单是陈书的助读 “功臣”,甚至可以将之和陈书视为反映魏蜀吴三国六十年鼎立历史的“双璧”;两著合刊,才算得上是记载中国古代这段辉煌历史的完整充实的巨著。《三国志》与《史记》、《汉书》、《后汉书》并称为“四史”。作者陈寿,以其史识及叙事能力,在当时已有“良史之才”的称誉。《三国志》在二十四史中,有它自己的特点,它既不像《史记》那样的通史,也不像《汉书》一类史书那样的断代史,它平行地叙述东汉末年魏、蜀、吴三国鼎峙的史实。虽然名之为“志”,但是书里面只有纪和传,没有志。本书兼具普及性和学术性,其文字,以中华书局1959年点校本《三国志》为底本,参校了清乾隆四年武英殿刻本、清同治六年金陵书局活字印本、清光绪十三年江南书局刻本等旧刻本和以中华书局标点本为代表的多种新版本。书中所选图片资料,遵循忠实于历史的原则,力求选取富含历史文化价值的图片,配入《三国志》相应的文字部分,以图辅文,以图证史,图文结合,内容涉及当时政治、经济、文化、军事、外交、风俗等方方面面,具有较高的历史文化价值,真实反映三国时期的历史原貌,方便读者对这一时期丰富的历史文化有一个较为形象的、直观的认识。
The Seven Ages [图书] 豆瓣
作者: Glück, Louise Harpercollins 2002 - 4
Louise Glück has long practiced poetry as a species of clairvoyance. She began as Cassandra, at a distance, in league with the immortal ; to read her books sequentially is to chart the oracle's metamorphosis into unwilling vessel, reckless, mortal, and crude. The Seven Ages is Glück's ninth book, her strangest and most bold. In it she stares down her own death, and, in so doing, forces endless superimpositions of the possible on the impossible -- an act that simultaneously defies and embraces the inevitable, and is, finally, mimetic. Over and over, at each wild leap or transformation, flames shoot up the reader's spine.
Can't and Won't [图书] 谷歌图书
作者: Lydia Davis Macmillan + ORM 2014 - 04
A new collection of short stories from the woman Rick Moody has called "the best prose stylist in America"

Her stories may be literal one-liners: the entirety of "Bloomington" reads, "Now that I have been here for a little while, I can say with confidence that I have never been here before." Or they may be lengthier investigations of the havoc wreaked by the most mundane disruptions to routine: in "A Small Story About a Small Box of Chocolates," a professor receives a gift of thirty-two small chocolates and is paralyzed by the multitude of options she imagines for their consumption. The stories may appear in the form of letters of complaint; they may be extracted from Flaubert's correspondence; or they may be inspired by the author's own dreams, or the dreams of friends.
What does not vary throughout Can't and Won't, Lydia Davis's fifth collection of stories, is the power of her finely honed prose. Davis is sharply observant; she is wry or witty or poignant. Above all, she is refreshing. Davis writes with bracing candor and sly humor about the quotidian, revealing the mysterious, the foreign, the alienating, and the pleasurable within the predictable patterns of daily life.
The Youngest Doll [图书] 谷歌图书
U of Nebraska Press 1991 - 01
This collection of stories, moving from the realistic to the nightmarish, is deeply felt, full of irony and black humor, and often experimental in form, reflecting Ferri's complex relationship with her Puerto Rican home. Translated by the author.
Theory and Practice [图书] 豆瓣
作者: Jacques Derrida University of Chicago Press 2019 - 1
Theory and Practice is a series of nine lectures that Jacques Derrida delivered at the Ecole Normale Superieure in 1976 and 1977. The topic of "theory and practice" was associated above all with Marxist discourse and particularly the influential interpretation of Marx by Louis Althusser. Derrida's many questions to Althusser and other thinkers aim at unsettling the distinction between thinking and acting.
Derrida's investigations set out from Marx's "Theses on Feuerbach," in particular the eleventh thesis, which has often been taken as a mantra for the "end of philosophy," to be brought about by Marxist practice. Derrida argues, however, that Althusser has no such end in view and that his discourse remains resolutely philosophical, even as it promotes the theory/practice pair as primary values. This seminar also draws fascinating connections between Marxist thought and Heidegger and features Derrida's signature reconsideration of the dichotomy between doing and thinking. This text, available for the first time in English, shows that Derrida was doing important work on Marx long before Specters of Marx. As with the other volumes in this series, it gives readers an unparalleled glimpse into Derrida's thinking at its best-spontaneous, unpredictable, and groundbreaking.
