Peeling the Onion is a searingly honest memoir that evokes Grass’ modest upbringing in Danzig, his time as a boy soldier fighting the Russians and concludes with the writing of his masterpiece, The Tin Drum, in Paris. Grass’ parents ran a corner shop, but his mother, whom he adored, encouraged him towards books and music. Like most of his peers, he joined the Hitler Youth and in 1944, when he was just 17, he was sent to the Eastern front with the Waffen SS and found himself facing Russian tanks and machine guns. Recovering from shrapnel wounds in a military hospital, he had the good fortune to be taken prisoner by the Americans. In the aftermath of the war, following a stint as a miner, Grass survived by trading on the black market and resolved to become an artist, eventually enrolling at the Academy of Arts in Düsseldorf. While living as an artist in Berlin with his first wife Anna, a ballet dancer, he started to concentrate on writing poetry. It was after the couple moved to Paris that the first sentence of the novel he had been determined to write and that would make his reputation came to him: ‘Granted: I am an inmate of a mental hospital’. Peeling the Onion is the story of a remarkable life and is, without question, one of Günter Grass' finest works.
君特·格拉斯,1927年生於但澤。作傢、雕塑傢、畫傢。他是當代德國最有影響的作傢,文學創作涉及小說、詩歌、隨筆,1999年獲諾貝爾文學奬。瑞典學院稱其以“嬉戲般的黑色寓言揭露被曆史遺忘的麵孔”。
初被《剥洋葱》给吸引,是因为它干利的命题,白皮体统的书面,书皮背后那一排引以为扣的小字打动心扉。老格拉斯叼着烟嘴,烟雾缭绕,浓密的大胡子带着松垮的眼镜,低调大方,一生清贫颠沛流离曲折的人生阅历。我想,不止这区区接近400页的文字来论述,这一生,乐观人生的严谨...
評分说出来也是搞笑,每当我经历一件令我记忆深刻的事时,我都会想想要是以后我写本回忆录的话这件事该怎么记叙。 记忆是怎么样的呢?从上面一句话可以看出,在我看来记忆是暧昧的,是模糊的,因为做一件事的动机往往不是单一的,而是复杂的,是综合考虑过的。那么当我在回忆的时...
評分周六下午在涵芬楼做活动,临走时在书店前的展台看到08年译林版的《剥洋葱》,毫不犹豫买下。 剥洋葱,两种含义,可以理解为回忆在剥离的过程中逐渐湿润,当下的生活正如干燥的外皮,随着回忆的逐渐深入,记忆也随之清晰可见并回复到当初的鲜活状态。我更喜欢的是第二种含义,...
評分今天中午一个人瞎逛 听着歌,散步 随意的观察周围的人: 几个穿着肥大校服的高中生 玩世不恭的姿态 站在路边吃串儿 一个短头发的女孩 坐在马路伢子上低着头哭 旁边站着一个男人 默默地看着她 一条帅气的哈士奇 甩着尾巴,昂首挺胸 似乎在用一种自豪的眼神 瞥视身边的京巴...
評分那都是年少时犯过的错了,没有人会硬逼他上军事法庭,何况是个少不更事、懵懂无知的孩子,唯一的见识来自用于内部宣传的“家庭广播”,偶尔出现的反叛者尽管印象深刻历久旎新,但在当时也不过昙花一现波澜不惊。最深刻的体验,来自内心对灵魂的拷问,源于自我对初始的探索,硬...
