"Oh my human brothers, let me tell you how it happened." So begins the chilling fictional memoir of Dr. Maximilien Aue, a former Nazi officer who has reinvented himself, many years after the war, as a middle-class family man and factory owner in France. Max is an intellectual steeped in philosophy, literature, and classical music. He is also a cold-blooded assassin and the consummate bureaucrat. Through the eyes of this cultivated yet monstrous man, we experience in disturbingly precise detail the horrors of the Second World War and the Nazi genocide of the Jews. During the period from June 1941 through April 1945, Max is posted to Poland, the Ukraine, and the Caucasus; he is present at the Battle of Stalingrad and at Auschwitz; and he lives through the chaos of the final days of the Nazi regime in Berlin. Although Max is a totally imagined character, his world is peopled by real historical figures, such as Eichmann, Himmler, Goring, Speer, Heyrich, Hoss, and Hitler himself. A supreme historical epic and a haunting work of fiction, Jonathan Littell's masterpiece is intense, hallucinatory, and utterly original. Published to impressive critical acclaim in France in 2006, it went on to win the Prix Goncourt, that country's most prestigious literary award, and sparked a broad range of responses and questions from readers: How does fiction deal with the nature of human evil? How should a novel encompass the Holocaust? At what point do history and fiction come together and where do they separate? A provocative and controversial work of literature, "The Kindly Ones" is a morally challenging read; it holds up a mirror to humanity--and the reader cannot look away.

评分《复仇女神》是一本很奇怪的书，作者乔纳森•利特尔（Jonathan Littel）是个美国人，1967年生于纽约，以前没有发表过文学作品。但是这部小说2006年刚在法国的伽利马出版社出版，就在巴黎引起轰动，销售势头极好，一时间里，大家似乎都在谈论这部厚达900页的“砖头”书。几个...
评分 评分怎么读《复仇女神》 入口：公务员 二战纳粹屠杀的小说里，这本的角度是个特例。处处有着公务员公事公办的痕迹，这与屠杀与否无关，而是一个公务机关在维持着正常的运行。由这本书仿佛突然领悟了公务机关有着它自己的生命，它才不管其他，而且这个生命是不容冒犯与改变的。如...
