圖書描述

Candace Chen, a millennial drone self-sequestered in a Manhattan office tower, is devoted to routine. With the recent passing of her Chinese immigrant parents, she’s had her fill of uncertainty. She’s content just to carry on: She goes to work, troubleshoots the teen-targeted Gemstone Bible, watches movies in a Greenpoint basement with her boyfriend.

So Candace barely notices when a plague of biblical proportions sweeps New York. Then Shen Fever spreads. Families flee. Companies cease operations. The subways screech to a halt. Her bosses enlist her as part of a dwindling skeleton crew with a big end-date payoff. Soon entirely alone, still unfevered, she photographs the eerie, abandoned city as the anonymous blogger NY Ghost.

Candace won’t be able to make it on her own forever, though. Enter a group of survivors, led by the power-hungry IT tech Bob. They’re traveling to a place called the Facility, where, Bob promises, they will have everything they need to start society anew. But Candace is carrying a secret she knows Bob will exploit. Should she escape from her rescuers?

A send-up and takedown of the rituals, routines, and missed opportunities of contemporary life, Ling Ma’s Severance is a moving family story, a quirky coming-of-adulthood tale, and a hilarious, deadpan satire. Most important, it’s a heartfelt tribute to the connections that drive us to do more than survive.

用戶評價

評分

故事很奇特。隻能用奇特來描述。書中的中國元素多多少少感覺有點雷同,有些情節有點牽強。但是不失為一個好故事。

評分

The world is a mall. 原本以為是the story of animal laboran, 後來發現也不盡然,更像是置放在資本主義中的「人是習慣的動物」的故事。和COVID-19及SARS挺不一樣的,書中Shen-fever時期人人的恐慌倒並不明顯。「迴憶」甚至是「鄉愁/懷舊」與病毒免疫及感染有著微妙的關聯,使得這些主題在這本涉及移民題材的小說裏沒有完全落入俗套。對女性的體驗和視角有瞭更細緻的刻畫,有「為母則剛」的影子。雙敘事綫並行得乾淨利落,是輕鬆的page-turner。部分情節的設定和想象還是有些匱乏瞭。

評分

風趣幽默,節奏也蠻舒服;對末世的想象力實際上還蠻匱乏的,但是也是這樣纔讓人驚醒,我們在日常生活裏消費主義主導下的種種麻木錶現,和末日喪屍比起來又高明在哪裏

評分

抑鬱中坐等刪失

評分

On-campus summer reading group第一本書。對高度全球化、工業化的資本主義、消費主義的一種反思。全球疫情爆發的故事大背景像是個預言。許多城市現代生活的片段讓我有所共鳴。許多地方想到阿倫特。”It is a book about animal laborans.” Shen Fever的設定是人們陷入對某一過程單調、機械性的無限循環與重復。Candace逃過一劫,不知道是不是因為即使沒有疫情,她早已過於習慣和依賴life routines。作者筆下的中國終歸是西方注視下的中國
