NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER
“[This] may be as close as Vonnegut ever comes to a memoir.”
– Los Angeles Times
“Like [that of] his literary ancestor Mark Twain, [Kurt Vonnegut’s] crankiness is good-humored and sharp-witted. . . . [Reading A Man Without a Country is] like sitting down on the couch for a long chat with an old friend.”
–The New York Times Book Review
In a volume that is penetrating, introspective, incisive, and laugh-out-loud funny, one of the great men of letters of this age–or any age–holds forth on life, art, sex, politics, and the state of America’s soul. From his coming of age in America, to his formative war experiences, to his life as an artist, this is Vonnegut doing what he does best: Being himself. Whimsically illustrated by the author, A Man Without a Country is intimate, tender, and brimming with the scope of Kurt Vonnegut’s passions.
“For all those who have lived with Vonnegut in their imaginations . . . this is what he is like in person.”
– USA Today
“Filled with [Vonnegut’s] usual contradictory mix of joy and sorrow, hope and despair, humor and gravity.”
– Chicago Tribune
“Fans will linger on every word . . . as once again [Vonnegut] captures the complexity of the human condition with stunning calligraphic simplicity.”
– The Australian
“Thank God, Kurt Vonnegut has broken his promise that he will never write another book. In this wondrous assemblage of mini-memoirs, we discover his family’s legacy and his obstinate, unfashionable humanism.”
–Studs Terkel
库尔特.冯内古特是个八十四岁的老头子,应该也是美国称为“垮掉的一代”(指五十年代)的年轻人,比他大三岁的塞林格就比较符合垮掉的特点,不然《麦田守望者》里的霍尔顿不会如此惶惶不可终日地暴走。 冯内古特本来已经封笔了,在1997他写完最后的一本长篇小说《时震》后,结...
评分2005年的作品,其时作者都83了。美国人的大脑有效期真长,我们这儿别说83了,38就不行了。基本上是他最近这些年发表过的一些文章的结集,内容是一些回忆、议论和幽默小品,也有几篇谈了谈卡夫卡和莎士比亚。至于核心内容,就一个:骂美国。对冯尼古特略有了解的人都知道...
评分 评分我觉得要发出自己的声音真的不是一件简单的事情. 尤其是对于社会的一些反面的声音. 有时候不是没有发泄的途径, 而是缺少了这样的勇气和态度. 跟着别人的脚印走似乎最安全. 还是要保持一颗爱骂的心 也许还能给自己的生活带来一点调味剂
评分如果按照中国现在流行的说法,冯内古特会被许多人参照林奈老先生的分类学归到一种叫“愤青”的脑残生物种属,或许还要在前面加一个修饰词,“老”——“老愤青”。但其实这完全是两码事,其差异的程度完全等同于人与猪之间的差别,虽然两者都很“愤怒”,但本质的区别在于,冯...
听老爷爷讲讲他对这个星球对自己的看法,就像他的小叔叔说的那样:“如果此刻不美妙,我实在想不出还有什么是美妙的。”

评分随便从哪页读起都行,每页都会幽上一默,轻松但却不失批判。If this isn't nice, I don't know what is.
评分虎头蛇尾,发现新闻写作课的老师居然引用过他的“灰姑娘曲线”,真是人生何处不相逢了
