图书描述

The Collected Stories of Lydia Davis is an event in American letters.

Lydia Davis is the author of one novel and seven story collections, the most recent of which was a finalist for the 2007 National Book Award. She is the recipient of a MacArthur Fellowship and was named a Chevalier of the Order of Arts and Letters by the French government for her fiction and her translations of modern writers including Maurice Blanchot, Michel Leiris, and Marcel Proust.

Lydia Davis is one of our most original and influential writers, a storyteller celebrated for her inventiveness, and her ability to capture the mind in overdrive. She has been called "an American virtuoso of the short story form" (Salon) and "one of the quiet giants . . . of American fiction" (Los Angeles Times Book Review). This volume contains all her stories to date, from the acclaimed Break It Down (1986) to the 2007 National book Award finalist Varieties of Disturbance.

著者简介

Lydia Davis, acclaimed fiction writer and translator, is famous in literary circles for her extremely brief and brilliantly inventive short stories. In fall 2003 she received one of 25 MacArthur Foundation “Genius” awards. In granting the award the MacArthur Foundation praised Davis’s work for showing “how language itself can entertain, how all that what one word says, and leaves unsaid, can hold a reader’s interest. . . . Davis grants readers a glimpse of life’s previously invisible details, revealing new sources of philosophical insights and beauty.” In 2013 She was the winner of the Man Booker International prize.

Davis’s recent collection, “Varieties of Disturbance” (May 2007), was featured on the front cover of the “Los Angeles Times Book Review” and garnered a starred review from “Publishers Weekly.” Her “Samuel Johnson Is Indignant” (2001) was praised by “Elle” magazine for its “Highly intelligent, wildly entertaining stories, bound by visionary, philosophical, comic prose—part Gertrude Stein, part Simone Weil, and pure Lydia Davis.”

Davis is also a celebrated translator of French literature into English. The French government named her a Chevalier of the Order of Arts and Letters for her fiction and her distinguished translations of works by Maurice Blanchot, Pierre Jean Jouve, Michel Butor and others.

Davis recently published a new translation (the first in more than 80 years) of Marcel Proust’s masterpiece, “Swann’s Way” (2003), the first volume of Proust’s “In Search of Lost Time.” A story of childhood and sexual jealousy set in fin de siecle France, “Swann’s Way” is widely regarded as one of the most important literary works of the 20th century.

The “Sunday Telegraph” (London) called the new translation “A triumph [that] will bring this inexhaustible artwork to new audiences throughout the English-speaking world.” Writing for the “Irish Times,” Frank Wynne said, “What soars in this new version is the simplicity of language and fidelity to the cambers of Proust’s prose… Davis’ translation is magnificent, precise.”

Davis’s previous works include “Almost No Memory” (stories, 1997), “The End of the Story” (novel, 1995), “Break It Down” (stories, 1986), “Story and Other Stories” (1983), and “The Thirteenth Woman” (stories, 1976).

Grace Paley wrote of “Almost No Memory” that Lydia Davis is the kind of writer who “makes you say, ‘Oh, at last!’—brains, language, energy, a playfulness with form, and what appears to be a generous nature.” The collection was chosen as one of the “25 Favorite Books of 1997” by the “Voice Literary Supplement” and one of the “100 Best Books of 1997” by the “Los Angeles Times.”

Davis first received serious critical attention for her collection of stories, “Break It Down,” which was selected as a finalist for the PEN/Hemingway Award. The book’s positive critical reception helped Davis win a prestigious Whiting Writer’s Award in 1988.

She is the daughter of Robert Gorham Davis and Hope Hale Davis. From 1974 to 1978 Davis was married to Paul Auster, with whom she has a son, Daniel Auster. Davis is currently married to painter Alan Cote, with whom she has a son, Theo Cote. She is a professor of creative writing at University at Albany, SUNY.

Davis is considered hugely influential by a generation of writers including Jonathan Franzen, David Foster Wallace and Dave Eggers, who once wrote that she "blows the roof off of so many of our assumptions about what constitutes short fiction."

单方面宣布读完,毕竟是四本的合集,读不完也正常,放在包里半年实在背不动。太多自我精神分析,不适合地铁适合某个睡不着的晚上一杯esppreso看到天亮

先是遍寻不到,后来找到电子版,再后来在书店里一眼发现。阅读过程中有种接通脑电波的快乐。

读后感

1.千万别将戴维斯和卡佛和安蒂比视为一类 通过数十篇短小的故事,情绪几乎成为所有情节,由此,情节的跌宕就是情绪的起伏。不难发现,一些专业评论家和戴维斯拥护者喜欢从短文本的容量里来解析该书——我看来是全无必要的,当然,戴维斯和安蒂比以及卡佛完全不同——若我们单从...

几年前,当我读完朱岳的《睡觉大师》,它带给我的快乐感久久不肯散去。《睡觉大师》也许称不上是伟大的小说,但肯定是最有趣的小说之一。如果单说文本实验,国内的小说家有几个能与朱岳相比?那些矛盾文学奖又算什么。有一天,朱岳和我说,他责编了一本莉迪亚·戴维斯的小说集...

《几乎没有记忆》 我不知道怎么写超过两百字的评论,不会组织架构,说出来的也只不过是空洞的东西。看到别人写的东西,我想,哦原来是这样,哦这样就可以了,可轮到我的时候我还是绞不出脑汁。 于是看完几乎没有记忆的时候也是这样的感觉,我好喜欢,我想把它推荐给谁,可是怎...

我承认:在读过罗伯格里耶之后,再没读到这么令人兴奋、惊讶,甚至目瞪口呆的小说了。 戴维斯真的可以称为一位美国小说家吗?难道她不是走在法语文学的传统上,与其将其与海明威、卡佛等摆在一起,还不如去细细分析下她与格里耶、西蒙、贝克特、布朗肖或图森等人在小说创作上的...
