Ursula K. Le Guin published twenty-two novels, eleven volumes of short stories, four collections of essays, twelve books for children, six volumes of poetry and four of translation, and has received many awards: Hugo, Nebula, National Book Award, PEN-Malamud, etc. Her recent publications include the novel Lavinia, an essay collection, Cheek by Jowl, and The Wild Girls. She lived in Portland, Oregon.
She was known for her treatment of gender (The Left Hand of Darkness, The Matter of Seggri), political systems (The Telling, The Dispossessed) and difference/otherness in any other form. Her interest in non-Western philosophies was reflected in works such as "Solitude" and The Telling but even more interesting are her imagined societies, often mixing traits extracted from her profound knowledge of anthropology acquired from growing up with her father, the famous anthropologist, Alfred Kroeber. The Hainish Cycle reflects the anthropologist's experience of immersing themselves in new strange cultures since most of their main characters and narrators (Le Guin favoured the first-person narration) are envoys from a humanitarian organization, the Ekumen, sent to investigate or ally themselves with the people of a different world and learn their ways.
Shevek, a brilliant physicist, decides to take action. he will seek answers, question the unquestionable, and attempt to tear down the walls of hatred that have isolated his planet of anarchists from the rest of the civilized universe. To do this dangerous task will mean giving up his family and possibly his life. Shevek must make the unprecedented journey to the utopian mother planet, Anarres, to challenge the complex structures of life and living, and ignite the fires of change.
其实也是我全书中最喜欢的片段之一 “完满,谢维克想,是针对时间而言的概念。对感官乐趣的追逐是循环的、重复的,不在时间范畴之内...对刺激...的不同追求只会得到同样的结果...它不是出发和归来,而是一个封闭的循环、一间锁住的屋子,一间牢房。 这间锁住的屋子外...
評分 評分前几天,和死宅团团长夫妇约饭,我到得早,便在附近一家西西弗书店闲逛。然后,这套书呢,就摆在书店进门的新书柜上,因为位置很好,我还颇有几分得意,便暗搓搓地猫在不远的地方偷偷留心,合计着数下,看一下午能卖掉几本。 于是呢,我就埋伏在新书柜旁边的畅销柜前,随手翻阅...
評分 評分“如果不害怕,不逃避,也许人可以升华,发现在痛苦之上还有一种东西存在。挣扎受苦的是人的自我,而在那里(痛苦之上),自我已经不复存在。我不知如何描述,然而我相信——我在挣扎苦痛中才能意识到舒适幸福时不能明白的这个事实——我相信痛苦的真面目并非痛苦。只要你能够...
不確定的烏托邦
评分……其實不太懂
评分Hain circle 什麼時候一定要補完(☆_☆) 到瞭最後幾章纔突然意識到結束會隨著開始 the end meets the beginning , a circle circle 似乎是這本書的主題詞呢 書名感覺是指一個(shevek?)或者是一類人,所以一無所有不太準確?不過似乎又錶達瞭要錶達的意思
评分"You cannot buy the revolution, you cannot make the revolution, you can only be the revolution. It is in your spirit, or it is nowhere."
评分我怎麼感覺。。。。就缺點什麼。我怎麼感覺。。。這好無聊啊?我根本讀不完。
