Like many young Americans, Jonathan Safran Foer spent much of his teenage and college years oscillating between enthusiastic carnivore and occasional vegetarian. As he became a husband, and then a father, the moral dimensions of eating became increasingly important to him. Faced with the prospect of being unable to explain why we eat some animals and not others, Foer set out to explore the origins of many eating traditions and the fictions involved with creating them.
Traveling to the darkest corners of our dining habits, Foer raises the unspoken question behind every fish we eat, every chicken we fry, and every burger we grill. Part memoir and part investigative report, Eating Animals is a book that, in the words of the Los Angeles Times , places Jonathan Safran Foer "at the table with our greatest philosophers."
Jonathan Safran Foer is the author of Everything Is Illuminated and Extremely Loud and Incredibly Close. His books have been translated into thirty-six languages. Everything Is Illuminated received a National Jewish Book Award and a Guardian First Book Award, and was made into a film by Liev Schreiber. Foer lives in Brooklyn.
作者 曹东勃 民以食为天。吃,几乎是包括人类在内的动物的本能,并在漫长的人类进化过程中承载了更多的意蕴,发展出食不厌精、脍不厌细的饮食文化。对吃什么、怎么吃、何时吃、在哪吃的研究可谓汗牛充栋。不过,《吃动物》一书并不讨论这些问题,而是对两个问题作出思...
评分1977年出生于华盛顿的乔纳森·萨弗兰·弗尔曾以小说《了了》和《特别响,非常近》中独特的叙事为文坛瞩目。《Granta》杂志将其选为美国最佳青年小说家之一。《吃动物》虽然是一本非小说类作品,却一样有着充满活力的风格和创造性。美国著名女影星娜塔莉·波特曼透露,弗尔的新...

评分最近对吃特别有兴趣,加之很喜欢《厨房里的人类学家》作者庄祖宜,在网上搜寻她的博客,发现她参加了一期TED演说:“吃出更好的未来”。她的演说中谈到了禽类的养殖现状,海产捕捞,其中“拖网”这种形式对自然环境造成的伤害等。中间推荐了几本书,其中之一就是《吃动物》,也...

略有突破,比较其他此类书籍要客观一些。但是格局太小,思考的太少,感情却总是不合时宜的大爆发,哎,写人吃肉这个主题的就没有一本好书吗?一本去看本质,去看理论,而不是咣咣讲几个可怜煽动的小故事就完了的书吗?真的是太失望了!
评分文字版Food factory. 不居高临下的,但感觉不真诚。
评分Got it at San Fransisco. Mind-blowing. Like the way the author thinks. Not emotional. Calm. Which role are you playing, psycho?
评分Foer的风格实在不是我的菜。在科隆火车站候车的时候买的这本,零零落落地看了一个月,硬着头皮,才读了三分之一。Foer的书是一个非常合不来的人强力推荐的,这位推荐人也是一个注重辞藻和调研甚于内容的人。
评分期待电影版
