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
夏日时光，短暂迷幻热烈狂放。碎片格式的日记，只言片语的讲述，迢迢千里逡巡世界各地的传记作者，被冠以小说名号的半自传作品。在这部小说中，库切是过世的作家，来自于探寻质问的目光在他的日记中汲汲寻找着线索，好像要小心翼翼地拎出来一根银色丝线，能够穿起来所有光芒四...

评分继《凶年纪事》后再度对库切的作品叹为观止，上回是脚手架式的三套层，这次纯粹用伪自传（=伟大的自传）加多重交叉采访做互文，父子之间那种情怀难以言喻，虚实结合，对自我的嘲讽，克制冷静，黑色幽默（听着舒伯特做着爱？！就能达到高潮？！），录音片段，琐碎的笔记，身为自...
评分作家作为圣哲的时代——是的，那种时代已经过去了。 那么，将来谁会来费神读你写的书呢？收藏者。少数爱好者。“你打算这样消耗自己的生命：坐在书桌前制作某种也许被人出于好奇二保留也许还没人会保留的东西？” 他耸耸肩，“你有更好的建议？” 没有谁有更好的建议。是的...
评分一、“库切的女人们”？ “他不是一个白马王子，只是一团云雾。” 那天，他异乎寻常的兴奋，带进情人卧室的，是一个小型的盒式放音机，他说，我们配合着舒伯特的弦乐五重奏那缓慢优美的旋律做爱吧。任由这音乐流入内心，让她激动起来，就有可能体验到某个相当不同寻常的瞬间...
