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.

評分1).庫切本人的政治觀點對於評價這本書全然不重要。2).我不管傻逼評論傢怎麼叫囂結構散漫靈感消退;我認為這本和伊麗莎白.科斯特洛同屬庫切目前的最佳作品。仍然在被衝擊的餘波中無法組織語言,留待長評。

I was startled by the directness of this book, coming from Coetzee. Famously the author never lends himself for display. His conditions for giving one of those rare interviews are: no questions about his life, politics or his books. He would only speak abou...

評分恕我直言,阅读《凶年纪事》是一件颇具挑战意味的事情。这本书有些怪异的三栏(有时是两栏)叙事方式,已经引得一片赞叹和质疑之声。库切自然不是为了追求形式上的突破,他这么做,是因为他要表达的思想难以在惯常的叙事方式中找到对应,一句话,不得已而为之。文本与观念的共...
評分 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...
