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.

Now in retrospect, this book seems to the beginning of my recently-ended obsession.
評分結尾有點小失望 "every personal discussion turned finally into good, clean, nihilistic fun." She had been one of Ravelstein's learned groupies. She was good at Greek. To study with R you had to read your Xenophon, Thucydides, and Plato in Greek.

評分“1992年6月18日,读索尔-贝娄读得索然无味。只记得里面写一个女人,头发分成两绺像一扇窗的两片帘子。写诗人:他既不能做子宫切除术,也不能把飞船送出月球。” ———————— 不知道那时看的是贝娄的哪本书了,《洪堡的礼物》?还是《赫索格》? 这本《拉椎尔斯坦》买来...
評分《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...
評分翻口毛边,书品近全新,比较可喜。 零四年读的中文译本,就想找原著看看,总算遂愿了。在BELLOW的作品里,这本大概只好算B+——A-的水准。
評分索尔•贝娄有句名言,叫“在我离开之前,清算我全部的账目”。或许对于这位出生并成长在美国文化环境(他生于加拿大,9岁时随父母在芝加哥定居)之中的犹太裔知识分子作家,在目睹了20世纪的狂热与极端之后,是十分希望不留亏欠,也不被亏欠地离开这个世界的。但索尔•贝...
