Lionel Essrog is Brooklyn’s very own self-appointed Human Freakshow, an orphan whose Tourettic impulses drive him to bark, count, and rip apart our language in the most startling and original ways. Together with three veterans of the St. Vincent’s Home for Boys, he works for small-time mobster Frank Minna’s limo service cum detective agency. Life without Frank Minna, the charismatic King of Brooklyn, would be unimaginable, so who cares if the tasks he sets them are, well, not exactly legal. But when Frank is fatally stabbed, one of Lionel’s colleagues lands in jail, the other two vie for his position, and the victim’s widow skips town. Lionel’s world is suddenly topsy-turvy, and this outcast who has trouble even conversing attempts to untangle the threads of the case while trying to keep the words straight in his head. Motherless Brooklyn is a brilliantly original homage to the classic detective novel by one of the most acclaimed writers of his generation.
读《布鲁克林孤儿》,其实就是通过那些含义不明却又能够显现角色内心的“污言秽语”去解读、去体会作者想让我们读懂的。 有些大家都能懂的话往往非真意,有些话你听不懂,但也许能体会。 Jonathan Lethem笔下的私探一定会被放置在十分怪诞的生理与心理特性处境中,在这样的处...
評分背景说明:是几年前蔡康永在公共电视礼拜二晚上10:00-11:00所主持的节目《周二不读书》中的最后一段,每个礼拜会介绍一本书,当天的来宾是张大春。 ———————— 蔡:今天的主角是张大春,那最后我要推荐的这本小说,跟张大春没有明显直接的关联,可是我的确向张大春提...
評分说实话,我没太读懂这本书。书中的压抑气氛有点像《红》,但是又不够悬疑。 他是蕴含着一种宗教还有隐晦的政治在其中,以一个人的视角来讲述发生在纽约布鲁克林的故事。 生命很迷茫,而周围的人似乎又很精明。那你的位置又在哪里呢?
評分【布魯克林孤兒】 作者:強納森‧列瑟/著 譯者:嚴韻 出版社:天培 蔡:今天的主角是張大春,那最後我要推薦的這本小說,跟張大春沒有明顯直接的關聯,可是我的確向張大春提過這本小說,我們的對話是這樣子的---就是我在電話裡面跟張大春說:「你有沒有看過一本小說,叫做『...
評分孤儿。兄弟。黑帮。侦探。妥瑞氏症。抽动。 乔纳森·勒瑟姆的小说《布鲁克林孤儿》讲述了这样几个关键词。当然,如果用不同人的不同语言习惯和语言逻辑将以上词汇整理成句段的话,我想会有不同的侧重和结果。对这本小说的解读,也同样如此。 而我,则尝试着这样去整理:...
作者的寫作風格很特彆,或者是因為他描寫的主人公有疾病的關係吧。一開始很難進入,堅持聽到一半後,節奏加快,就好讀很多瞭。
评分Very enjoyable and well-written (if somewhat light) new take on old-fashioned potboiler fiction. The narrator's Tourette's outbursts of free association are the high point, or at least were for me. I don't envy any Chinese translator who takes this one on -- it'll be a tough gig.
