After crossing oceans, a man and a boy arrive in a new land. Here they are each assigned a name and an age, and held in a camp in the desert while they learn Spanish, the language of their new country. As Simon and David they make their way to the relocation centre in the city of Novilla, where officialdom treats them politely but not necessarily helpfully.
Simon finds a job in a grain wharf. The work is unfamiliar and backbreaking, but he soon warms to his stevedore comrades, who during breaks conduct philosophical dialogues on the dignity of labour, and generally take him to their hearts.
Now he must set about his task of locating the boy's mother. Though like everyone else who arrives in this new country he seems to be washed clean of all traces of memory, he is convinced he will know her when he sees her. And indeed, while walking with the boy in the countryside Simon catches sight of a woman he is certain is the mother, and persuades her to assume the role.
David's new mother comes to realise that he is an exceptional child, a bright, dreamy boy with highly unusual ideas about the world. But the school authorities detect a rebellious streak in him and insist he be sent to a special school far away. His mother refuses to yield him up, and it is Simon who must drive the car as the trio flees across the mountains.
The Childhood of Jesus is a profound, beautiful and continually surprising novel from a very great writer.

人生循环往复,我们理所当然地按照长久以来的教化生活,却很少停下来反思,我们认为对的,就是对的吗?那些我们视为异类的是不是才是真正正常、理智,且清醒的呢?理想世界真的存在吗?世外桃源就是最完美的地方吗?当下的问题和挣扎到远方就会消失无影踪吗?带着这些追寻,他们再一次远走他乡。
评分依旧是后殖民主义,书中不乏哲学性的讨论却很是单薄,另外琐碎的写法和日常的描绘也让人提不起阅读的激情。这本书没有抓住我,反而让我想起当年高考的课题——belonging......(°̥̥̥̥̥̥̥̥﹏°̥̥̥̥̥̥̥̥)
评分以为看到现在已经完全掌握了库切,以为再读只是加深理解,不会再遇到完全未知的领域,但这本书就像Giovanni Bellini的Sacred Allegory -- inexplicable, disturbing, not of this world.
评分表面上谈唐吉诃德,世界上还是笛福思路,准备讨论福利制度和现代精神文明重建,学院得到了学生气的地步,结构开始不够精巧,对现代生活方式起源的探讨也变得十分随意,对西班牙语的挪用虽然符合欧陆惯例但是老是让人尴尬,因为情感氛围还是太过于理性现代,还是一个老但是有爱做的老男人。
评分weird twofold way to conceive the Jesus character with social contemplation intertexture.

评分 评分《耶稣的童年》作为书名,从圣人到虚构故事,从宗教到小说内容核心,不知道有没有人想到这样的名字会跟作者的野心有关。在宗教系统里,有大量的关于主的故事,从出生到复活,哪段都不缺少传奇。可作为读者怎么会想到当代作家要为耶稣的童年树碑立传呢? 当然,读者没想到的,...
评分他和她。 一个是贫家子弟,一个是娇宠千金。一个瘦瘦高高,皮肤黝黑;一个弱不禁风,面色白皙。 他们操着各自县城的乡音,不约而同地来到了北京。 某一天,在后海的一家小酒吧里,他和她相遇了。他独自一人,她身边也无伴。 “一个人啊?” “你不也是么?” 他俩尝试用...
评分节日里看了5本书,包括2本重读的书(流浪的星星、玩的就是心跳),2本库克的书,1本 J.K.罗琳化名 写的推理小说布谷鸟的呼唤(写的很糟糕)。 库克并不是一个我喜爱的作家。他属于非常冷静的作家,我还是喜欢有激情的作家。当然这并不妨碍我认同他是个好作家。 两部作品都是他...
