安东尼•伯吉斯 Anthony Burgess(1917—1993)
英国当代著名文学家、作曲家和文学评论家。早年在大学攻读文学,做过钢琴师,进过情报部门。20世纪60年代被诊断患脑瘤,从此隐居,专事文学创作。后得知脑瘤纯属误诊,但其文学创作一直延续。一生发表作品几十部,以《发表橙》最为著名、最具影响,另著有《尘世种子》、《尘世权利》等。他一直希望被看作会写小说的音乐家,而非会作曲的小说家。

"Anthony Burgess reads chapters of his novel A Clockwork Orange with hair-raising drive and energy. Although it is a fantasy set in an Orwellian future, this is anything but a bedtime story." -The New York Times
Told by the central character, Alex, this brilliant, hilarious, and disturbing novel creates an alarming futuristic vision of violence, high technology, and authoritarianism.Anthony Burgess' 1963 classic stands alongside Orwell's 1984 and Huxley's Brave New World as a classic of twentieth century post-industrial alienation, often shocking us into a thoughtful exploration of the meaning of free will and the conflict between good and evil. In this recording, the author's voice lends an intoxicating lyrical dimension to the language he has so masterfully crafted.
"I do not know of any other writer who has done as much with language as Mr. Burgess has done [in A Clockwork Orange]." -William S. Burroughs
Recognized as one of the literary geniuses of our time, Anthony Burgess produced thirty-two novels, a volume of verse, sixteen works of nonfiction, and two plays. Originally a composer, his creative output also included countless musical compositions, including symphonies, operas, and jazz. The author's musicality is evident in the lyrical and dramatic reading he gives in this recording. Anthony Burgess died in 1993. --This text refers to an out of print or unavailable edition of this title.

评分 评分 评分两个下午两口气,读完了这本书。整个故事像是《1984》与《了不起的盖茨比》的合体。 一方面 用conditioning表面的成功与小主人公的康复 向虚伪的集权政府表达羞辱与不屑, 另一面 又是从孩子的角度讲述长大。 * “把一个体面的年轻人变成一台发条机器,肯定不算什么政绩的...
评分如果说将人转为符号本身就是一种暴力,那么在暴力与野蛮统治下的所谓文明社会看起来自然是岌岌可危,缺失信任与安全让社会面貌更为凌乱、破碎与无序。 1971年,美国电影导演库布里克用时一年半,出人意表地拍摄出一部备受争议充满暴力血腥的残酷影片。该片上映之后引起一片...
