具體描述
Oscar is a sweet but fat sci-fi obsessed introvert who -- from the New Jersey home he shares with his old world mother and rebellious sister -- dreams of becoming the Dominican J.R.R. Tolkien and, most of all, of finding love. But Oscar may never get what he wants. Blame the fuku -- a curse that has haunted Oscar's family for generations, following them on their epic journey from New Jersey to Washington Heights and back to Santo Domingo. Encapsulating Dominican American history, Oscar's story open our eyes to an astonishing vision of the contemporary American experience and explores the endless human capacity to persevere -- and risk it all -- in the name of love.

評分按照德国汉学家顾彬教授的标准，《奥斯卡•瓦奥短暂而奇妙的一生》绝对是一本过时的小说，因为里面的人物太多了，光是肤色就有四五种。顾教授欣赏的是那种用几百页的篇幅，描述一个人和一个苹果的关系的现代派小说。值得一提的是，此书还展示了史上最具规模的鸣谢名单，里面...
評分 評分用了一个礼拜的时间看完了这本书。起初的确是对此书没报多大兴趣，正像前面人评论的，作为一个生活在美国的华人，我对美国文化都还没有彻底深入的了解过，我怎么会有心思去关系一个在世界地图上根本都不会引起人多大兴趣的Dominica。但是随着故事的渐渐深入，忽然发现，Dominic...
