Brecht's Mistress pdf epub mobi txt 電子書 下載 2024
Winner of the 2003 Prix Goncourt, a novel hailed by the times literary supplement as "a delicate, elegiac tale of political failure and defeated love."
A fictional story based on the final years of playwright Bertolt Brecht, Brecht's Mistress is a literary Cold War thriller that "recalls le Carré" (Daily Telegraph) in its evocation of the grim world of postwar East Germany and its depiction of personal destinies intertwined with superpower rivalry.
Inspired by an actual photograph taken of Brecht and a beautiful unknown young woman, Amette's novel opens on October 22, 1948, the day of Brecht's return to the Soviet-controlled zone of Berlin. Despite Brecht's abiding communist sympathies, the Stasi, East Germany's notorious secret police force, suspects his motives and recruits the young and vulnerable Viennese actress Maria Eich to spy on him. Brecht—married to the actress Helen Weigel—is a womanizer, and Maria soon becomes one of a long string of mistresses. Maria, for her part, has fallen in love with her Stasi recruiting officer, Hans Trow. An intricate plot plays itself out on the terrain of infidelities, ambition, and Cold War politics.
龔古爾奬頒給瞭雅剋-皮埃爾·阿邁特(Jacques-Pierre Amette)的小說《布萊希特的情婦》(La Ma?tresse de Brecht,阿爾班-米歇爾齣版社)。小說以1948年的德國為背景,為從國外歸來的著名劇作傢布萊希特虛構瞭一個情婦。小說風格樸素,把愛情遊戲和間諜角色遊戲糅閤在一起,是一部“試圖靠近政治的學者的悲劇”。作者筆下的布萊希特和瑪麗亞·艾施的故事都是虛構的,但他精細的文筆使整整一個東柏林藝術界在小說中變得活靈活現,令讀者更願相信一切都是史實,而且他遣詞造句運用的都是布萊希特的方式。
