Veteran filmaker Ruth Ozeki's novel has been hailed as "one of the heartiest and yes, meatiest debuts in years" (Glamour). It tells the story of a year in the lives of two ordinary women on opposite ends of the earth, brought together by a convergence of extraordinary circumstances. Jane, a struggling filmmaker in New York, is given her big break--a chance to travel through the U.S. to produce a Japanese television program sponsored by an American meat exporting business. But along the way, she discovers some unsavory truths about love, honor, and a particularly damaging hormone called DES that wreaks havoc with her uterus. Meanwhile, Akiko, a painfully thin Japanese woman struggling with bulimia, is being pressured by her child-craving husband to put some meat on her bones--literally. How Jane's and Akiko's lives intersect taps into some of the deepest concerns of our time--how the past informs the present and how we live and love in an ever-shrinking world.
A cross-cultural, tragi-comic romp through America and Japan that is "wonderfully wild and bracing . . . a feast that leaves you hungry for whatever Ozeki cooks up next" (Newsweek).
"Ozeki masks a deeper purpose with a light tone. . . . A comical-satirical-farcical-epical-tragical-romantical novel." -Jane Smiley, Chicago Tribune Book Review (front page)
之前读这种书会觉得不知道作者想表达什么。因为以前读的书过于幼稚,都有一个确定的主题:不是赞美忠贞的爱情就是赞美坚持不懈打败敌人。这一本书包含了多种主题,日本和美国的文化差异,meat industry怎么运作,TV production industry里媒体怎样运用材料达到为自己服务的目的,“truth”该不该说出来,以什么方式说出来,Akiko作为一开始作为一个被压抑的女性的成长史,家庭暴力等等等等。以前没有读懂这类书,以为作者只是想表达一种情绪,如今发现,还是得细细体会每一句话每一个字。
评分内心触动。近期读过的最好的一本小说,不论心理描写还是情节描绘都接近我所想象的完美,坐等读第二遍。
评分Mar 16, 2013 It's an very interesting and very realistic book. The book uses of a variety of genres to reveal and uncover the stories of the meat industry in the States, which is somehow disgusting. There is also a large depiction of how women are oppressed by the patriarchal society. The book gives me a in depth look into the social expectat
评分这本书比想象中的好看很多哎,而且越往后发展越好看。后半部分Jane和Akiko两个女人的联系越发的缠绕明显,那种生命中重要的时刻都连贯起来的感觉,好棒。很喜欢Jane这个人物,有点想责怪她但是又不忍心的心情真是令我。。难受!Akiko走出第一步之后就很棒了,找回自己的勇气是一件很值得骄傲的事情。不知道为什么这种羁绊能令我想起NANA呢。。忧桑

Akiko的使命之一是担负买避孕套的重责。在药店里她开不了口,日落黄昏,她得挣扎过自己的害羞,去巷子角落的自动贩卖机买。慌忙间她买错了牌子,担心挨丈夫骂,那让她难堪。 她一面绕远路走回家,一面故意想些分散注意力的仿佛有趣的问题。 真让人心疼,书写得意外好。有点想慢...
