Abe Ravelstein is a brilliant professor at a prominent midwestern university and a man who glories in training the movers and shakers of the political world. He has lived grandly and ferociously-and much beyond his means. his close friend Chick has suggested that he put forth a book of his convictions about the ideas which sustain humankind, or kill it, and much to Ravelstein's own surprise, he does and becomes a millionaire. Ravelstein suggests in turn that Chick write a memoir or a life of him, and during the course of a celebratory trip to Paris the two share thoughts on mortality, philosophy and history, loves and friends, old and new, and vaudeville routines from the remote past. The mood turns more somber once they have returned to the Midwest and Ravelstein succumbs to AIDS and Chick himself nearly dies. Deeply insightful and always moving, Saul Bellow's new novel is a journey through love and memory. It is brave, dark, and bleakly funny: an elegy to friendship and to lives well (or badly) lived.

《拉维尔斯坦》通过记录拉维尔斯坦这位频临死亡的哲学教授的最后岁月,梳理了人物的鲜明个性和思想特征。索尔贝娄深入生活的实质,他善于把学术思想委婉植入人物谈话和流水账般的叙述中,时而无收揽的铺排,时而严谨论调,机灵调侃,插诨打科,零碎又自成体系。如果细致梳理美...
評分尽管詹姆斯·伍德盛赞贝娄在八十五高龄还能“如此丰沛地充满着他过去瀑布般的力量”,写下《拉维尔斯坦》,在写作的韧性上直追托尔斯泰与托马斯·曼( 自然,伍德是贝娄迷,听听这句论断就知道了——“索尔·贝娄或许是美国20世纪最伟大的小说家——这里的最伟大意味着最多产...
評分几乎是没有情节和故事推进的小说,以前在看索尔·贝娄的《洪堡的礼物》的时候有点这个意思,在一堆故事基本骨架里面有一长段一长段很多的对于事物的看法、分析很有深度,所以我在读《洪堡的礼物》的时候在抄了好多段落做笔记。但是这本《拉维尔斯坦》首先页数就要比《洪堡的礼...

評分“实在很难想象像拉维尔斯坦这样的人已经与世长辞了。” 索尔贝娄发出的感叹。“因为在一片鸟儿的聒噪声中,听不见他的话。”现代的民主社会恰如这聒噪的丛林,那些卑下的鸟儿却在不停地发出噪音,将高贵灵魂的声音都淹没了。拉维尔斯坦不再了,而聒噪的鸟儿们却仍在继续。 “...
