Haunted all her life by feelings of terror and emptiness, forty-nine-year-old Urania Cabral returns to her native Dominican Republic - and finds herself reliving the events of l961, when the capital was still called Trujillo City and one old man terrorized a nation of three million. Rafael Trujillo, the depraved ailing dictator whom Dominicans call the Goat, controls his inner circle with a combination of violence and blackmail. In Trujillo's gaudy palace, treachery and cowardice have become a way of life. But Trujillo's grasp is slipping. There is a conspiracy against him, and a Machiavellian revolution already underway that will have bloody consequences of its own. In this 'masterpiece of Latin American and world literature, and one of the finest political novels ever written' ("Bookforum"), Mario Vargas Llosa recounts the end of a regime and the birth of a terrible democracy, giving voice to the historical Trujillo and the victims, both innocent and complicit, drawn into his deadly orbit.

做一个暴君是最需要创造力也最不需要创造力的:需要创造力是因为确实需要去思考太多不可控的细节,需要编造理由来证明自己;不需要是因为所有的套路本质上都是一样:威不可测,让所有子民都一样地习得性无助,同时垄断资源,使“子民”们除了乞求伟大领袖施恩外找不到其他的活...
评分与许多描述独裁统治的文字不同,《公羊的节日》并不是一本寓言。 书中既无对独裁者义正词严的贬斥,亦无脸谱化的人物描写。小说分三条主线展开,A/B/C三条主线偏离两面化叙述的内容不一而足。A线中,在事发之日二十余年后,乌拉尼娅的亲戚们提到,全家在特鲁希略时代的生活要比...
评分被遮蔽的痛苦 周鸣之 曾听过一个论调,说人在受苦时所能受到的最高级别的安慰,莫过于建议他/她将自身的痛苦还原到历史中去,毕竟我们如今所能承受的苦难形式,先人们都多多少少地领受过了——本来么,痛苦这种决定于基因的东西,很难跳脱出什么新意。尽管如此,我对此论调仍...

评分It's so heavy that it took me almost a month to finish. A moving attempt to rescue the eternal feminine, the female body that is deemed the condition of possibility for politics and thus rendered mute, without normalizing or merely making it into a symbol of totalitarianism. Llosa is indeed a first-class novelist.
