All of the true things I am about to tell you are shameless lies'. Dr Felix Hoenikker, one of the founding fathers of the atomic bomb, has left a deadly legacy to the world. For he is the inventor of Ice-nine, a lethal chemical capable of freezing the entire planet. The search for its whereabouts leads to Hoenikker's three eccentric children, to a crazed dictator in the Caribbean, to madness. Will Felix Hoenikker's death wish come true? Will his last, fatal gift to humankind bring about the end that, for all of us, is nigh? Told with deadpan humour and bitter irony, Kurt Vonnegut's cult tale of global apocalypse preys on our deepest fears of witnessing the end and, worse still, surviving it...

猫的摇篮是攀(翻)花绳的一个花式,一个游戏。 冰9,一种使水原子排列,锁定,冻结的新方式。 以某种让你又勇敢又仁慈又健康又快乐的谎言为信条而生活吧 ——《博克侬经卷》 掸去墓碑上的冻雨,露出逝者的名字。 他两腿跪在我身边的地毯上,对我露出他的牙齿,在我眼前晃动那...

評分通常对这部书的评论是,在科幻小说的外壳中讽刺现实。作者被归为黑色幽默一类的。《猫的摇篮》是他的代表作之一。 书名“猫的摇篮”,是一种绳圈游戏(就是小时候玩的挑花线、挑绳)里的一种样式。 小说里有几个很经典的角色。 科学家霍尼克尔:一个科研怪才,...

评分The ice-nine is useful, for its useless.
评分讀的馮內古特的第一本書,簡直著瞭迷,語言精簡的同時又有如此深刻的隱喻。同時一起讀的呼嘯山莊相比之下簡直囉嗦死瞭 讀不下去(一不小心又捧一踩一瞭)很有意思的地方時這本書呼應Moby Dick的部分,之後會繼續分析寫些essay之類的。不得不說馮內古特的黑色幽默實在是妙,有的地方真的笑死,然後接著抑鬱。。。宗教 科學 人類 本來就是無法下定論的話題,不管是Jonah還是Vonnegut,想到之前學黑色幽默文學時的一句話:這些作傢認為世界這麼糟瞭,我們也沒什麼可做的,不如就笑笑吧。
评分◎馮古內特極其善於用幽默消解、諷刺愚蠢的事,這種幽默是極其聰明的,相比於我這種不入流的寫作者,他不會用明晃晃的觀點刺傷你,他仿佛隨意笑著扔瞭幾顆豆子,然後豆子落地拔起入雲的藤蔓,枝叉上穿滿瞭愚蠢的心。
