Winner of the 1961 National Book Award
The dazzling novel that established Walker Percy as one of the major voices in Southern literature is now available for the first time in Vintage paperback.
The Moviegoer is Binx Bolling, a young New Orleans stockbroker who surveys the world with the detached gaze of a Bourbon Street dandy even as he yearns for a spiritual redemption he cannot bring himself to believe in. On the eve of his thirtieth birthday, he occupies himself dallying with his secretaries and going to movies, which provide him with the "treasurable moments" absent from his real life. But one fateful Mardi Gras, Binx embarks on a hare-brained quest that outrages his family, endangers his fragile cousin Kate, and sends him reeling through the chaos of New Orleans' French Quarter. Wry and wrenching, rich in irony and romance, The Moviegoer is a genuine American classic.
Walker Percy (1916–1990) was one of the most prominent American writers of the twentieth century. Born in Birmingham, Alabama, he was the oldest of three brothers in an established Southern family that contained both a Civil War hero and a US senator. Acclaimed for his poetic style and moving depictions of the alienation of modern American culture, Percy was the bestselling author of six fiction titles—including the classic novel The Moviegoer (1961), winner of the National Book Award—and fifteen works of nonfiction. In 2005, Time magazine named The Moviegoer one of the best English-language books published since 1923
开头觉得很普通…
评分16416被石坚教授说得神乎其神的一本书,个人感觉还好
评分很多时候很多人甘于平庸倒不是说就真的心甘情愿享受平凡了,而是自己无法再往上了只能认命而已,我记得以前看蔡康永写他在电影学院念书的时候,他的剧本课老师就指责他写的喜剧,说人就是生活太苦了才会去看电影,想看看那些比自己过的还苦的人,从而找到慰藉。我以前是真的没有理解这些话的,觉得巨荒诞,现在却有点理解了。电影是一段人生的缩影,我们没有楚门秀但却可以通过看电影来偷窥别人的人生从而审视自我。这本书写到电影的地方不多,但我们又岂止只是通过电影偷窥别人的生活呢。这本书给我的感觉和局外人是相似的,都让我有一种对自己的人生宛若隔岸观火的恐惧感。怪不得姜泡这么给我安利这书了。。

评分Elegant writing + flat storyline. Essentially what happens when you turn thirty and come back from a war... Binx... I just want to shake him sometimes.
比克·保林,小说的主人公,是一位股票经纪人。他喜欢看电影,喜欢和女秘书谈情说爱,始终认为电影的意义在于自省。他不愿被平淡无奇的生活所淹没,只有在电影中才感觉到真实,于是开始追寻某种更为重要的东西。最后他放弃了自省,但也找到了他要的东西:Certification。 全书...
评分可能是最近一直在看美国五六十年代的资料和作品,所以心境很玄很荒谬,状态也是很狂很理想。 因为喜欢那个时代,所以很喜欢这本书。而且觉得自己和主人公很像,他说的,做的我都能理解。 一个人看电影,一个人思考,一个人旁观——离开他人的地狱。如果主人公完全把自己放逐,...
评分旅途中一天工作下来,我的精神能量已耗尽,实在没心情啃原版的《史记》,电脑里翻来翻去翻到这本小说,一看字体很大,再看页数不多,另外也很久没看一本不错的小说了,网上查了下,还是写年轻人探索人生意义的书,就开始看起来。这就是电脑里书比较多的好处,也是旅途中住一个...

评分“什么是昨日重现?那就是要再次重现过去的经历,目的在于分拣出已经流逝的时光,剔除了事件的干扰之后(事件就像是薄脆糖上的花生,把时间凝结在一起),这段流逝的时光就会散发出自己的醇厚芬芳。比如说,上个星期,我就在不经意中体验了一次昨日重现。我在图书馆里随手拿...
