A NEW YORK TIMES NOTABLE BOOK OF THE YEAR
National book Critics Circle Award Finalist
"Anne Carson is, for me, the most exciting poet writing in English today."--Michael Ondaatje
"This book is amazing--I haven't discovered any writing in years so marvelously disturbing." --Alice Munro
The award-winning poet Anne Carson reinvents a genre in Autobiography of Red, a stunning work that is both a novel and a poem, both an unconventional re-creation of an ancient Greek myth and a wholly original coming-of-age story set in the present.
Geryon, a young boy who is also a winged red monster, reveals the volcanic terrain of his fragile, tormented soul in an autobiography he begins at the age of five. As he grows older, Geryon escapes his abusive brother and affectionate but ineffectual mother, finding solace behind the lens of his camera and in the arms of a young man named Herakles, a cavalier drifter who leaves him at the peak of infatuation. When Herakles reappears years later, Geryon confronts again the pain of his desire and embarks on a journey that will unleash his creative imagination to its fullest extent. By turns whimsical and haunting, erudite and accessible, richly layered and deceptively simple, Autobiography of Red is a profoundly moving portrait of an artist coming to terms with the fantastic accident of who he is.
"A profound love story . . . sensuous and funny, poignant, musical and tender."--The New York Times Book Review
"A deeply odd and immensely engaging book. . . . [Carson] exposes with passionate force the mythic underlying the explosive everyday."--The Village Voice

我居然就看完瞭。我居然很喜歡...
评分古希臘殘詩的當代題材發揮,音感細膩濃鬱,以詩敘事讓故事盈滿內傾的心聲。#如何兼顧情節與內省 #不知為何總想到Damon/Graham(ignore me

评分這是一本令人憂傷的書,瞬間明白Anne Carson為什麼會對Sappho感興趣。隻是我不大小的這個並不poetic也不vernacular的語言要怎麼做close-reading呃。。。好睏惑。。。
评分Haven't read anything like this before. You can finish it in an afternoon in a bookstore. But you'll want to buy it after all so that you can take it home and stash it on your nightstand and relish it when you feel like it.
