On Earth We're Briefly Gorgeous pdf epub mobi txt 電子書 下載 2024
On Earth We’re Briefly Gorgeous is a letter from a son to a mother who cannot read. Written when the speaker, Little Dog, is in his late twenties, the letter unearths a family’s history that began before he was born — a history whose epicenter is rooted in Vietnam — and serves as a doorway into parts of his life his mother has never known, all of it leading to an unforgettable revelation. At once a witness to the fraught yet undeniable love between a single mother and her son, it is also a brutally honest exploration of race, class, and masculinity. Asking questions central to our American moment, immersed as we are in addiction, violence, and trauma, but undergirded by compassion and tenderness, On Earth We’re Briefly Gorgeous is as much about the power of telling one’s own story as it is about the obliterating silence of not being heard.

評分語言太美瞭
評分寫法還是非虛構和詩的寫法,齣版社強扭成小說推銷,讀起來反倒有違和感。我對用美的語言描述暴力仍然持一定保留態度,就像阿多諾說,奧斯維辛之後,寫詩是野蠻的。
評分作者真的太知道自己和自己所處的文化圈子要什麼、要讀(寫)什麼瞭。就主題來說,身份政治那一套書寫【種族的、性彆(嚮)的、曆史文化的......】憑什麼天然深刻高級?西貢少年的成長睏惑顧影自憐(阮海洋)和第一世界白人青少年的乏善可陳(薩莉·魯尼)有什麼本質區彆?就風格來說,像是北美郭敬明、寫小說的蹩腳frank ocean和Tori Amos的基佬粉同人文。
評分“A page, turning, is a wing lifted with no twin, and therefore no flight. And yet we are moved.”
Truth be told, reading this book was not pleasant at all. In other words, I find this novel demanding, distracting and discomforting. My limited vocabulary and the narrator’s stream of consciousness prevented me from understanding and completing it. As I t...
評分不知道大家知不知道 这种以书信形式写的小说叫epistolary novel 可以epistolary各种 比如Cheryl Strayed的“Tiny Beautiful Things: Advice on Love and Life from Dear Sugar”是epistolary essay 分享好了拜拜
