具体描述
A rich, funny, and deeply affecting autobiographical new novel from one of the world's greatest living writers.
A young English biographer is working on a book about the late writer, John Coetzee. He plans to focus on a period in the seventies when, the biographer senses, Coetzee was 'finding his feet as a writer'. He embarks on a series of interviews with people who were important to Coetzee -- a married woman with whom he had an affair, his favourite cousin Margot, a Brazilian dancer whose daughter had English lessons with him, former friends and colleagues. Thus emerges a portrait of the young Coetzee as an awkward, bookish individual, regarded as an outsider within the family. His insistence on doing manual work, his long hair and beard, and rumours that he writes poetry evoke nothing but suspicion in the South Africa of the time.

读后感
我想，我会问：为什么我们讨论《夏日》的时候，不多说说茱莉亚？不多说说马丁？为什么不多说说那些跳出来赞赏或者指责约翰的人们？ 库切打开的是约翰，他只能面对约翰，库切不能把库切打开。库切是闷骚的，而约翰是工科文艺猥琐男。 可以唤起更多关于“后殖民”的、“南非隔...
评分原谅我没办法从文学的角度来看待这本书 我试图不把这本书看成一本自传 但是由于我实在对他的私生活太好奇了 还是想从中窥探一些作者的真实想法 这样一个男人其实也蛮悲哀的 冷、古怪、不通人情、闷骚、自恋、不合群、邋遢、沉默、缺乏热情 囊括了水瓶男的全部特质 他通过别人...
评分两天前看完的，记几点感受。 1、未死而为自己“作传”，库切够自信，一开始我表示质疑； 2、以采访体、不在场的在场的叙事来建构小说，不算高明的手法；（这样的手法很常见了，比如李洱《花腔》） 3、从《迈克尔K》就知道，库切的叙事哲学单纯质朴，中心人物多怀着沉默哲学，与...
评分在看完了青春，才来追夏日的，想继续领略作者笔下主人公内心的风暴，结果呢，由开始的激动，因为能找到这本书的电子版，确实费了一会功夫，也很期待得到内心的充实，慢慢的看的越来越压抑，我不知道主人公是在干什么了，他为什么这样的活着，中性，去性，无性，我真不懂有什么...
评分其实这种他者的视角真的非常惊艳到我的，开始的时候看我还真的以为是个人采访录，一直非常的纠结，一个陌生人凭什么对别人的人生这样子的大加干涉。后面总是在想库切的三部曲，那就是本人写的了，然后我和自己玩了个捉迷藏。 爱的迷惑、身份的迷惑.....很多东西与生俱来...

It wasn't that he couldn't argue ; but he ran his life according to principles, whereas I was a pragmatist. Pragmatism always beats principles, that's always the way things are. The universe moves; principles are always a step behind. Pragmatism are stuff comedy. Comedy is what you get when principles bump into reality.
