Saul Bellow won the Pulitzer Prize for his novel HUMBOLDT’S GIFT in 1975, and in 1976 was awarded the Nobel Prize for Literature ‘for the human understanding and subtle analysis of contemporary culture that are combined in his work.’ He is the only novelist to receive three National Book Awards, for THE ADVENTURES OF AUGIE MARCH, HERZOG, and MR. SAMMLER’S PLANET
BELLOW EVOKES ALL THE RICH COLOR and exotic customs of a highly imaginary Africa in this acclaimed comic novel about a middle-aged American millionaire who, seeking a new, more rewarding life, descends upon an African tribe. Henderson’s awesome feats of strength and his unbridled passion for life win him the admiration of the tribe—but it is his gift for making rain that turns him from mere hero into messiah. A hilarious, often ribald story, Henderson the Rain King is also a profound look at the forces that drive a man through life.
如果从读小说的角度看《雨王亨德森》还是有点累的,描写太干,心理活动太多。但是我知道,这百分之八十是翻译的问题。欧美的长篇小说很多不能让人读完,比如纳博科夫,唯一好读的只有《洛丽塔》。但是又很奇怪,世界上最会讲故事的作家也在他们那儿。 读完小说以后我才深刻明白...
評分我是三月份读的这本书,当时把错误都记在了书上,回头一看,竟然有这么多。 翻译蓝仁哲和责编冯涛真应该负很大的责任。按说谁没有错呢,可是在宋兆霖翻译的《奥吉·马奇历险记》中,我从始至终没有遇到过一个错误,尽管《奥吉·马奇历险记》比《雨王亨德森》厚了一倍...
評分 評分难得这一本写得不晦涩,因为通俗而带来阅读的亲切感。 亨德森先生,强壮、粗鲁而又敏感的百万富翁, 那内心的喊叫,其实每个人都正经历吧。 原始的喊叫,原始的森林、沙漠和部落, 优雅的蛮夷国王,注定悲剧的狮语者, 无法理清头绪,可暴躁终将得到安抚。 我也应该晒晒赤道的...
評分他长着一双阴阳怪气的眼睛,偌大的头颅凹凸不平,头发像波斯羊身上的毛,还有一个大鼻子。这样类似于动物的外貌却是《雨王亨德森》书中的主人公,让人又失望又好笑同时又让人对他产生好奇,为什么作者索尔•贝娄给了他“兽”的形象。 索尔•贝娄是美国著名作家,诺贝尔获...
瞭不起的索貝婁
评分讓人感動。動物隱喻也好:被趕走的馬,紐約州的豬,老宅裏的貓,馬裏布的海豹,Arnewi部落的牛,Dahfu生命中的兩頭獅子,安大略的老熊。死亡與亨德森形影不離,他所見聞的新生又給瞭他繼續生活的力量。一本讓我有勇氣過下去的書。
评分Healing your soul with Out Of Africa and Galapagos and struggling with your tiresome and normal desires. Bellow is not a trouble that serious literature always stand for, undue contraption and bound to enlarge your vocabulary. It's not he. Anyway, suffering is not a certain but makes you treasure your family even millionaire beckons for proofs.
评分May your troubled soul rest in peace.
