图书描述

A Nix can take many forms. In Norwegian folklore, it is a spirit who sometimes appears as a white horse that steals children away. In Nathan Hill’s remarkable first novel, a Nix is anything you love that one day disappears, taking with it a piece of your heart.

It’s 2011, and Samuel Andresen-Anderson—college professor, stalled writer—has a Nix of his own: his mother, Faye. He hasn’t seen her in decades, not since she abandoned the family when he was a boy. Now she’s re-appeared, having committed an absurd crime that electrifies the nightly news, beguiles the internet, and inflames a politically divided country. The media paints Faye as a radical hippie with a sordid past, but as far as Samuel knows, his mother was an ordinary girl who married her high-school sweetheart. Which version of his mother is true? Two facts are certain: she’s facing some serious charges, and she needs Samuel’s help.

To save her, Samuel will have to embark on his own journey, uncovering long-buried secrets about the woman he thought he knew, secrets that stretch across generations and have their origin all the way back in Norway, home of the mysterious Nix. As he does so, Samuel will confront not only Faye’s losses but also his own lost love, and will relearn everything he thought he knew about his mother, and himself.

From the suburban Midwest to New York City to the 1968 riots that rocked Chicago and beyond, The Nix explores—with sharp humor and a fierce tenderness—the resilience of love and home, even in times of radical change.

meaningless moan from emptiness itself

评分☆☆☆☆☆

好讽刺好犀利好真实！前几章关于政客、媒体和privileged millennials直接在公车上笑出了声。很多书评都说是David Foster Wallace式犀利并meta的文风。后面越看越神：2011、80年代、60年代、40年代相互交错；9个角色的POV叙述，这其中包括一本以第二人称叙述的choose your own adventure book，让我们理解和同情每个人的经历。就是这结尾太烂尾了啊！好像没时间草草收场，或者是要达到choose your own adventure book那种“条条线索均汇合”的统一。而且结尾咋都开始说教了呢。

"About eighty percent of what you believe about yourself when you’re twenty turns out to be wrong. The problem is you don’t know what your small true part is until much later.”

很巧合最近读的两本小说，独居一年和nix都是以母亲离开家庭开篇的。nix篇幅很长，讲的是这么一个道理，一个人有很多面，就像盲人摸象，每个部分都是整体的组成之一。如果过分追求其中某一面，执着于自我，就会迷失。解脱的办法是放弃执着，走出自我。放弃对别人的愤怒，同情，理解别人。
