Diary of a Bad Year pdf epub mobi txt 電子書 下載 2024
An utterly contemporary and deeply thought-provoking novel which addresses the profound unease of countless people in modern democracies around the world.
An eminent, seventy-two-year-old Australian writer is invited to contribute to a book entitled Strong Opinions. It is a chance to air some urgent concerns. He writes short essays on the origins of the state, on Machiavelli, on anarchism, on Al-Qaida, on intelligent design, on music. What, he asks, is the origin of the state and the nature of the relationship between citizen and state? How should the citizen of a modern democracy react to the state’s willingness to set aside moral considerations and civil liberties in its war on terror, a war that includes the use of torture? How does the state handle outsiders?
In the laundry-room of his apartment block he encounters an alluring young woman. When he discovers she is between jobs he claims failing eyesight and offers her work typing up his manuscript. Anya has no interest in politics but the job provides a distraction, as does the writer’s evident and not unwelcome attraction toward her.
Her boyfriend, Alan, an investment consultant who understands the world in harsh neo-liberal economic terms, has reservations about his trophy girlfriend spending time with this 1960s throwback. Taking a lively interest in his affairs, Alan begins to formulate a plan.
Diary of a Bad Year is an utterly contemporary work of fiction from one of our greatest writers and deepest thinkers. It addresses the profound unease of countless people in democracies across the world.

阅读库切的这本书是在一个月前。当时我对这部作品不甚满意,因为他写了一些我刚刚认清的局限。但这部作品的情节却在这段时间不断在我的脑海中再现,伴随着那个中心词——耻。现在写下的这篇文章,是为了释放虬结在脑壳里的思想。如果幸运,还可以将它们梳理通顺,变成比较确定...
評分迄今为止,围绕着库切这本《凶年纪事》仍然是无休无止的争议和疑虑:争议来自政治方面,很多人惊讶地看到这位老作家在书中为“9.11”事件之后的残酷的恐怖主义袭击辩护;疑虑的则是另外一方面,《凶年纪事》极具“陌生化”的形式主义方面的革新,是不是意味着这位曾荣获诺贝尔...
評分1、 原来这是一部锻炼记忆力和人格分裂的好书。上栏写着马基雅维利,中栏写着强奸对男人女人的耻辱,下栏讨论者一下午四次的性爱。 2、 虽然JC的确和库切有很多相似之处,但有点写作经验的人都会意识到这不是库切,而是库切创作出来的库切。还看到一种说法是库切可以模糊小说与...
評分这只是我一些狂想,与书无关。忽略忽略。 曾经我认为我最喜欢的书是梭罗的《瓦尔登湖》,因为我看过整整六遍,无数次地重复翻阅、摘抄、默诵。 后来我觉得库切的《青春》也很不错。 舍友说:“大概你喜欢别人真诚的模样。”“但是那个模样也不是他们最真实的样子。” 真不是一...
