南京安魂曲 Goodreads
Nanking Requiem
作者: Ha Jin / 哈金 译者: 季思聰 時報 2011 - 11
為了生存,人們通常是健忘的,
但歷史應該被如實記錄下來。
恐懼不是生存的方式……
死亡不過是生命的一個階段罷了,
我們沒有什麼值得恐懼的。
美國國家書卷獎得主哈金最新長篇小說。
故事以1937年南京大屠殺為背景,描述時任金陵女子學院校長的美籍傳教士明妮.魏特林,在日軍侵犯南京之際,以自己美國公民身分留守當地,保衛避居在校內超過一萬名無助的中國婦孺。本書描述明妮當時如何與日軍斡旋攻防的經歷,及至回到美國,明妮依舊鎮日為大屠殺期間,無力保護而犧牲的生靈哀悼……
哈金以近乎新聞報導的方式,描寫戰爭的暴行,素樸的文字傳達出更深沉的力量。明妮.魏特林是真實人物,小說中她以基督教徒的身分為上帝服侍。然而就像所有偉大的英雄一樣,明妮竭心盡力,雖然受眾人愛戴,卻也不免落人口實、遭人非議,使她最終因自己的無能為力而精神崩潰,走上絕路。哈金描寫人性的功力在此又可見一斑,使本書既有史詩般記錄歷史的宏大格局,又有小說刻畫人物的細膩之處。

靈山 Goodreads
作者: Gao Xingjian / 高行健 聯經出版事業(股)公司 1990 - 12
In 1983, Chinese playwright, critic, fiction writer, and painter Gao Xingjian was diagnosed with lung cancer and faced imminent death.But six weeks later, a second examination revealed there was no cancer he had won "a second reprieve from death." Faced with a repressive cultural environment and the threat of a spell in a prison farm, Gao fled Beijing and began a journey of 15,000 kilometers into the remote mountains and ancient forests of Sichuan in southwest China. The result of this epic voyage of discovery is Soul Mountain .
Bold, lyrical, and prodigious, Soul Mountain probes the human soul with an uncommon directness and candor and delights in the freedom of the imagination to expand the notion of the individual self.

《靈山》是一部獨樹一格的長篇小說巨著,根據作者中國西南偏遠地區的漫遊印象,由不同的人稱代詞「你」、「我」、「他」呈現不同的內心觀點,更呈現主人公旅程的反思與朝聖心路,瑞典皇家學院的頌辭提到:「在高行健的作品中,可以見到文學從個人在群眾歷史中的掙扎,得到新生。」

邊陲地帶流傳巫術、民謠、江湖好漢,奇風異景,一趟探索心靈的桃花源,敘述者到處遊蕩,只為尋找心中的樂土。作者從各個角度切入,體現一個向靈山朝聖的心路歷程,並藉此撥開中國文化的多樣神秘面紗。

在作者的運鏡之間,心境的蒼涼與迷濛中,世界萬千之景,富麗磅礴的山水、曲折典雅的小城窄巷,在藝術家/小說家的虛實筆觸之下,吐納出無盡的魅力……

http://www.books.com.tw/products/0010...
  不論在塵囂的市集裡或是人跡罕至的蠻荒之地,「你」和「我」都為了探索「靈山」,而到處遊盪,尋找心中的樂土—一個與世無爭的世外桃源。作者從各個角度切入,體現一個向靈山朝聖的心路歷程,並藉此撥開中國西南邊區的神密面紗。

  《靈山》採用了第二人稱和第一人稱交互運用的敘述方式。「你」和「我」可能是一個人,也可能不是一個人,這並不十分重要,重點是他們都是敘述的主體,前者是分析式的,後者是綜合式的,共同體現向一個靈山朝聖的心路歷程。在這部也可以稱作是「尋根」的巨大的架構中,高行健有意擺脫了傳統的編織情節和塑造人物的累贅,把所有的力量都灌注在語言的實現上,使語言澄澈猶如雪山的澗流,直接呈現出敘述者的心象。

  這樣的寫法,仍然算是一種散文化的小說模式。就其篇幅的巨大而論,這是一種嶄新的嘗試,端看他語言的藝術是否承托得起這巨大的篇幅所帶來的重量。如果說傳統小說的「人物──情節」模式早已經形成讀者固定的審美經驗,那麼任何小說的新模式都將訴求於讀者審美經驗的調整,拒斥的心理和新景觀的刺激將會同時產生。

Gender Queer 谷歌图书 豆瓣 Goodreads
8.8 (16 个评分) 作者: Maia Kobabe Lion Forge 2019 - 5
In 2014, Maia Kobabe, who uses e/em/eir pronouns, thought that a comic of reading statistics would be the last autobiographical comic e would ever write. At the time, it was the only thing e felt comfortable with strangers knowing about em. Now, Gender Queer is here. Maia's intensely cathartic autobiography charts eir journey of self-identity, which includes the mortification and confusion of adolescent crushes, grappling with how to come out to family and society, bonding with friends over erotic gay fanfiction, and facing the trauma of pap smears. Started as a way to explain to eir family what it means to be nonbinary and asexual, Gender Queer is more than a personal story: it is a useful and touching guide on gender identity—what it means and how to think about it—for advocates, friends, and humans everywhere.

Atlas of AI: Power, Politics, and the Planetary Costs of Artificial Intelligence 豆瓣 谷歌图书 Goodreads
作者: Kate Crawford Yale University Press 2021 - 4 其它标题: The Atlas of AI
The hidden costs of artificial intelligence, from natural resources and labor to privacy, equality, and freedom

“Eloquent, clear and profound—this volume is a classic for our times. It draws our attention away from the bright shiny objects of the new colonialism through elucidating the social, material and political dimensions of Artificial Intelligence.”—Geoffrey C. Bowker, University of California, Irvine

What happens when artificial intelligence saturates political life and depletes the planet? How is AI shaping our understanding of ourselves and our societies? In this book Kate Crawford reveals how this planetary network is fueling a shift toward undemocratic governance and increased racial, gender, and economic inequality. Drawing on more than a decade of research, award‑winning science, and technology, Crawford reveals how AI is a technology of extraction: from the energy and minerals needed to build and sustain its infrastructure, to the exploited workers behind “automated” services, to the data AI collects from us. 
 
Rather than taking a narrow focus on code and algorithms, Crawford offers us a political and a material perspective on what it takes to make artificial intelligence and where it goes wrong. While technical systems present a veneer of objectivity, they are always systems of power. This is an urgent account of what is at stake as technology companies use artificial intelligence to reshape the world.

Marriage Unbound 豆瓣 谷歌图书 Goodreads
作者: Ke Li Stanford University Press 2022 - 7
China after Mao has undergone vast transformations, including massive rural-to-urban migration, rising divorce rates, and the steady expansion of the country's legal system. Today, divorce may appear a private concern, when in fact it is a profoundly political matter—especially in a national context where marriage was and has continued to be a key vehicle for nation-state building. Marriage Unbound focuses on the politics of divorce cases in contemporary China, following a group of women seeking judicial remedies for conjugal grievances and disputes.
Drawing on extensive archival and ethnographic data, paired with unprecedented access to rural Chinese courtrooms, Ke Li presents not only a stirring portrayal of how these women navigate divorce litigation, but also a uniquely in-depth account of the modern Chinese legal system. With sensitive and fluid prose, Li reveals the struggles between the powerful and the powerless at the front lines of dispute management; the complex interplay between culture and the state; and insidious statecraft that far too often sacrifices women's rights and interests. Ultimately, this book shows how women's legal mobilization and rights contention can forge new ground for our understanding of law, politics, and inequality in an authoritarian regime.

Citizen: An American Lyric 豆瓣 Goodreads
作者: Claudia Rankine Graywolf Press 2014 - 10 其它标题: Citizen
A provocative meditation on race, Claudia Rankine's long-awaited follow up to her groundbreaking book Don't Let Me Be Lonely: An American Lyric.

Claudia Rankine's bold new book recounts mounting racial aggressions in ongoing encounters in twenty-first-century daily life and in the media. Some of these encounters are slights, seeming slips of the tongue, and some are intentional offensives in the classroom, at the supermarket, at home, on the tennis court with Serena Williams and the soccer field with Zinedine Zidane, online, on TV-everywhere, all the time. The accumulative stresses come to bear on a person's ability to speak, perform, and stay alive. Our addressability is tied to the state of our belonging, Rankine argues, as are our assumptions and expectations of citizenship. In essay, image, and poetry, Citizen is a powerful testament to the individual and collective effects of racism in our contemporary, often named "post-race" society.

作者: Erin E. Adams Bantam 2022 - 10
A young Black girl goes missing in the woods outside her white Rust Belt town. But she’s not the first—and she may not be the last. . . .

It’s watching.

Liz Rocher is coming home . . . reluctantly. As a Black woman, Liz doesn’t exactly have fond memories of Johnstown, Pennsylvania, a predominantly white town. But her best friend is getting married, so she braces herself for a weekend of awkward and passive-aggressive reunions. Liz has grown, though; she can handle whatever awaits her. But on the day of the wedding, somewhere between dancing and dessert, the bride’s daughter, Caroline, goes missing—and the only thing left behind is a piece of white fabric covered in blood.

It’s taking.

As a frantic search begins, with the police combing the trees for Caroline, Liz is the only one who notices a pattern: a summer night. A missing girl. A party in the woods. She’s seen this before. Keisha Woodson, the only other Black girl in school, walked into the woods with a mysterious man and was later found with her chest cavity ripped open and her heart missing. Liz shudders at the thought that it could have been her, and now, with Caroline missing, it can’t be a coincidence. As Liz starts to dig through the town’s history, she uncovers a horrifying secret about the place she once called home. Children have been going missing in these woods for years. All of them Black. All of them girls.

It’s your turn.

With the evil in the forest creeping closer, Liz knows what she must do: find Caroline, or be entirely consumed by the darkness.

8.7 (6 个评分) 作者: Gabrielle Zevin Knopf 2022 - 7
On a bitter-cold day, in the December of his junior year at Harvard, Sam Masur exits a subway car and sees, amid the hordes of people waiting on the platform, Sadie Green. He calls her name. For a moment, she pretends she hasn't heard him, but then, she turns, and a game begins: a legendary collaboration that will launch them to stardom. These friends, intimates since childhood, borrow money, beg favors, and, before even graduating college, they have created their first blockbuster,
. Overnight, the world is theirs. Not even twenty-five years old, Sam and Sadie are brilliant, successful, and rich, but these qualities won't protect them from their own creative ambitions or the betrayals of their hearts.
Spanning thirty years, from Cambridge, Massachusetts, to Venice Beach, California, and lands in between and far beyond, Gabrielle Zevin's
is a dazzling and intricately imagined novel that examines the multifarious nature of identity, disability, failure, the redemptive possibilities in play, and above all, our need to connect: to be loved and to love. Yes, it is a love story, but it is not one you have read before.

七个被绞死的人 豆瓣 Goodreads
9.3 (35 个评分) 作者: [俄] 安德列耶夫 译者: 靳戈 / 戴骢 浙江文艺出版社 2018 - 8
《七个被绞死的人》是俄国作家安德烈耶夫的小说集,精选作者不同创作时期的11篇极具代表性的作品,包括名篇《红笑》《七个被绞死的人》《墙》等。

安德烈耶夫的小说杂糅多种艺术风格,笔触深入广袤的社会现实内里,在对人物内心和外部环境的冷峻描写中,蕴藏着深刻的哲理,流动着纤细的诗 意。安德烈耶夫笔下刻画的人物多为社会边缘人和浮世畸零人,故事罕见、离奇;其叙述风格在俄国作家中也独树一帜,呈现为一贯的紧凑、细腻、迷离,笔墨浓重,直指人心。生活的梦魇、人生的荒诞、天性的孤绝,以及纠缠于其思想里的许多“该死的问题”,促使安德烈耶夫始终探求无意义中的意义。

◎◎◎◎◎◎◎◎◎◎◎◎◎◎◎◎◎◎◎◎◎◎◎◎◎◎◎◎◎◎◎◎

★入选法国《理想藏书》俄罗斯小说前30部

★哈罗德•布鲁姆《西方正典》经典书目推荐

★鲁迅受安德烈耶夫影响,创作名篇《药》

★托尔斯泰、契诃夫、勃洛克、高尔基等伟大作家一致赞赏

安德烈耶夫继承并发展了俄国文学关注现实的传统,且不拘泥于单一流派,博采众家而糅合创造出个人独特的艺术风格。高尔基赞誉安德烈耶夫“在俄国文学史上将永远占有自己的一席”。

◎◎◎◎◎◎◎◎◎◎◎◎◎◎◎◎◎◎◎◎◎◎◎◎◎◎◎◎◎◎◎◎

●俄国作家中,没有一个人能够如他(安德烈耶夫)的创作一般,消融了内面世界与外面表现之差,而现出灵肉一致的境地。

——鲁迅

●(安德烈耶夫)是从残酷的人生悲剧里见到人道之光的,是从反对消极一方面写出人道之声的,所以见得最为真切,写得最为沉痛,且能感人深远。

——郑振铎

●(安德烈耶夫的)直觉惊人地锐利。对于生活的黑暗面,对于人类灵魂里的种种矛盾,对于本能领域里的种种纠缠,他有不可思议的透视力。

——[俄]高尔基

●列昂尼德•安德烈耶夫的作品我在莫斯科就读了;后来在来雅尔塔的一路上接着读。他真是一个好作家,如果他写得更多一些,他会取得更大的成功。……读者早晚会习惯的,他将是个大作家。

——[俄]契诃夫(1904年4月11日,致奥•克尼碧尔信中)

●(安德烈耶夫)真是纷扰时代的真儿子。十九世纪末俄国人心理上的烦闷与生活的暗淡都在安德烈耶夫的作品(里)表现出来。他著作的描写点极广;对于人类生活的根本问题,一一苦思以求解决。……他的一生正当俄国经历了外交失败革命被压之后数年间的失望时期;这几年中灰色的人生,契诃夫带着隐哭声的假笑以诙谐的口吻描画出来,安德烈耶夫则用冷嘲与热泪描写出来。

——茅盾

●(安德烈耶夫:)“我们的不幸,便是大家对于别人的心灵,生命,苦痛,习惯,意向,愿望,都很少理解,而且几于全无。我是治文学的,我之所以觉得文学可尊者,便因其最高尚的功业,是在拭去一切的界限与距离。”这正是他(安德烈耶夫)文学上的宗旨,也就可以代表俄国人道主义的文学者,作他们的宣言。

——周作人

●安德烈耶夫是第一个沿着陀思妥耶夫斯基的方向、沿着后来的存在主义艺术家们——首先是加缪和萨特——将走的道路前行的人。

——[俄]阿列克谢•波格丹诺夫

●(安德烈耶夫)具有丰富和鲜明的联想,具有在自己身上随意唤起大量鲜明的幻觉的才能,……天才的大小在这方面是同这种幻觉的数量和鲜明性以及如何善于描绘这种幻觉成正比的。

——[俄]卢那察尔斯基

●安德列耶夫早期的怀疑主义是非常迷人的,因为这是淡淡的、非刻意的、赋予其短篇小说以必要的锋芒的怀疑主义,这样的怀疑主义后来发展成了“宇宙性的批判”,发展成了对存在意义的否定。

——[俄]巴辛斯基

●我觉得这就是安德烈耶夫的可贵之处——他总是提出这个问题,每次都提得正确,因为现在俄罗斯这个大孩子向文明提出的正是这个问题,可是谁也不能够做出圆满的回答,以便使他不再紧跟着提出有些冷漠又有些顽皮的问题——“为什么?”。……安德烈耶夫由衷地、不懈地、又是无意识地提出这个问题。时间越久,他就越发有意识地思考这个问题,他自己不只一次可以最成熟地而又最愚蠢地做出回答。

BTS: Icons of K-Pop Goodreads
作者: Adrian Besley Michael O'Mara 2018 - 11
Seven good-looking boys—Jin, Suga, J-Hope, RM, Jimin, V and Jungkook—who can dance as well as they can sing, are tearing up the global music charts. Nothing new? Think again. BTS, who rose to fame in their native South Korea in 2013 and who sing almost entirely in Korean, are now an international sensation. Over the last three years, K-pop has steadily garnered a huge following among social-media-savvy teen girls. And with their clean-cut good looks, fabulously choreographed and perfectly executed dance moves, and catchy blend of pop, soft hip hop and r&b, BTS are leading the advance. They were recently profiled in US Vogue,  the first K-pop band to be granted such an honor; they won the 2017 Billboard Music Award for Top Social Artist, beating Justin Bieber, Ariana Grande and Selena Gomez; they were listed by Forbes as the most retweeted artist on Twitter in March 2016, and their fanbase has ballooned since then; they were named in Time magazine's "Top 25 Most Influential People on the Internet 2017;" and they've recently embarked on a sold-out tour across the globe. Extensively researched, and written in an upbeat and accessible style, this book interweaves the success stories of each of the boys with how the band got together, while documenting their amazing rise to fame in Southeast Asia, and then the world.

1961年,耶路撒冷地方法院对纳粹战犯、“犹太问题最终解决方案”重要执行者阿道夫•艾希曼开展了一场旷日持久的审判。汉娜•阿伦特就这场审判为《纽约客》写了五篇报告,后集结成书。《艾希曼在耶路撒冷》详细记录了这次引发全球关注的审判的全过程,并结合对大量历史资料的分析,提出了“平庸的恶”的概念。恶的化身未必是狂暴的恶魔,也有可能是平凡、敬业、忠诚的小公务员。艾希曼由于没有思想、盲目服从而犯下的罪并不能以“听命行事”或“国家行为”的借口得到赦免。
