'A brilliant excursion into the decadence of contemporary culture' - "Sunday Times". Eric Packer is a twenty-eight-year-old multi-billionaire asset manager. We join him on what will become a particularly eventful April day in turn-of-the-twenty-first-century Manhattan. He's on a personal odyssey, to get a haircut. Sitting in his stretch limousine as it moves across town, he finds the city at a virtual standstill because the President is visiting, a rapper's funeral is proceeding, and a violent protest is being staged in Times Square by anti-globalist groups. Most worryingly, Eric's bodyguards are concerned that he may be a target ...An electrifying study in affectlessness, infused with deep cynicism and measured detachment; a harsh indictment of the life-denying tendencies of capitalism; as brutal a dissection of the American dream as Wolfe's "Bonfire" or Ellis' "Psycho", "Cosmopolis" is a caustic prophecy all too quickly realized. 'A prose-poem about New York ...DeLillo has always been good at telling us where we're heading ...we ignore him at our peril' - Blake Morrison, "Guardian".
Donald Richard "Don" DeLillo (born November 20, 1936) is an American novelist, playwright and essayist. His works have covered subjects as diverse as television, nuclear war, sports, the complexities of language, performance art, the Cold War, mathematics, the advent of the digital age, politics, economics, and global terrorism. Initially a well-regarded cult writer, the publication in 1985 of White Noise brought him widespread recognition. It was followed in 1988 by Libra, a bestseller. DeLillo has twice been a Pulitzer Prize for Fiction finalist (for Mao II in 1992 and for Underworld in 1998), won the PEN/Faulkner Award for Mao II in 1992 (receiving a further PEN/Faulkner Award nomination for The Angel Esmeralda in 2012), was granted the PEN/Saul Bellow Award for Achievement in American Fiction in 2010, and won the Library of Congress Prize for American Fiction in 2013. DeLillo has described his fiction as being concerned with "living in dangerous times", and in a 2005 interview declared, "Writers must oppose systems. It's important to write against power, corporations, the state, and the whole system of consumption and of debilitating entertainments [...] I think writers, by nature, must oppose things, oppose whatever power tries to impose on us."
well......not like it so much

評分“Hysteria at high speeds, day to day, minute to minute. People in free societies don’t have to fear the pathology of the state. We create our own frenzy, our own mass convulsions, driven by thinking machines that we have no final authority over. The frenzy is barely noticeable most of the time. It’s simply how we live.”

即使不熟悉唐﹒.德里罗的人,听到这个名字,大概也会联想到某个不合时宜的西班牙骑士,或者什么黑手党老大。是啊,从某种程度上,德里罗确是个大战风车的骑士,也是一位老大。在庸俗故事如蘑菇一般在商业出版潮湿的森林里成片滋生的时代,他在贩卖艰涩辛辣的思想,在简单荒诞的...
評分唐•德里罗是当今世界为数不多的大师之一,也是少数坚持创作实验小说的作家,他的多部小说都已翻译成中文出版。然而他来得晚了点,现在我国小说界几乎整齐划一的都在“讲故事”,他这种不以“讲故事”为目的小说家就很难有多大影响了。 《大都会》写了28岁的天才、大资本家、...
評分读书笔记136:大都会 挺难想象是个年近七十老作家的作品,互联网,it技术,都是这个世纪最前沿的东西,演绎的挺好,很有洞察性的预示了互联网泡沫,甚至911。 互联网这一波行情打破了之前的阶级固化,一大群平民草根,技术宅男一夜之前富可敌国。男主小时候出身出身并不好,28...
評分这是一本充满着雄性激素的书,书中充满了被放大的视觉,听觉,触觉,嗅觉…和男人身上对于女人的各种性爱欲望,毫不掩饰的剖析了一个人——一个男人的“灵魂”——文字直接没有丝毫遮掩。 作者带着我以第三人称的视角窥视了主人公看似平凡却又不平凡的一天。正本书...
