What does it mean to be lonely? How do we live, if we're not intimately engaged with another human being? How do we connect with other people? Does technology draw us closer together or trap us behind screens?
When Olivia Laing moved to New York City in her mid-thirties, she found herself inhabiting loneliness on a daily basis. Increasingly fascinated by this most shameful of experiences, she began to explore the lonely city by way of art. Moving fluidly between works and lives -- from Edward Hopper's Nighthawks to Andy Warhol's Time Capsules, from Henry Darger's hoarding to the depredations of the AIDS crisis -- Laing conducts an electric, dazzling investigation into what it means to be alone, illuminating not only the causes of loneliness but also how it might be resisted and redeemed.
Humane, provocative and deeply moving, The Lonely City is about the spaces between people and the things that draw them together, about sexuality, mortality and the magical possibilities of art. It's a celebration of a strange and lovely state, adrift from the larger continent of human experience, but intrinsic to the very act of being alive.
具体描述
读后感
无论生活在纽约、巴黎、东京，还是逃不掉的北上广，我们总能在生机勃勃又人满为患的城市中感受到孤独。 一个人走过喧嚣的十字路口，一个人塞着耳机挤进通勤地铁，一个人从狭小的房间醒来、默默看着窗外泛白的晨光……即使置身热闹的聚会，也会在人群中一瞬间感到内心的清冷。 ...
评分孤独有着矛盾的属性,被孤独束缚的人,既渴望获得别人的爱和需要,又恐惧和别人亲密接触,刻意和他人保持距离。正是因为这种矛盾冲突,导致孤独的人变得更加孤立和疏远。 矛盾，是普遍存在的，并不仅存在于孤独患者身上。但有些人身上携带的矛盾属性强于其他人。 我是孤独的吗？我该...
评分原创 2018-03-11 南云禾Dagny 云禾的彼得潘 前面的话： 不知何时开始，我会避免正面谈论孤独，因为你不得不承认，这些东西早已被写过无数遍了，后来者很难再有不陷入矫情之嫌的创新。这本《孤独的城市》提供了一种新模式——让感性和理性轮番登台。 上一次有类似感受的书是凯...
评分正逢疫期，前陣子太過沉於絕望。這幾天才逐漸緩和下來，要求自己刷新聞次數減少，且每次必須轉發有效信息，同時重新撿起自己本該做的事情，希望一切儘快恢復光明。 因為還是頗難打開那些過於歡快的主題，所以選讀了Olivia Laing的這本，買了大半年遲遲未讀。看書前需要做的事，...

用户评价
在Portland的Powell's Books找到这本书的时候欣喜若狂，也因为这本书重新审视了孤独这个话题。
评分作为一个在纽约闹市独自生活过的人，特别能体会到那种近乎绝望的孤独感，这本书体会到了，我给四颗星
评分"Loneliness, longing, does not mean one has failed, but simply that one is alive." Good conclusion, yet the book might be even better if it looks at the issue from the perspective of ordinary people rather than famous artists.
评分孤独是一座城市，名为孤独的城市，纽约，曼哈顿下城，曼哈顿下城的艺术家，男艺术家。于孤独中创作的艺术家、关于“孤独”的艺术作品和栖身孤独之间的艺术。单身女性作者写男性艺术家的生命故事，用自己此刻的孤独去揣测他们的历史的社会的孤独，孤独私人，孤独普世，孤独是集体症结，孤独作为政治用语。孤独的解药可能不是与某人相遇，或可像《银翼杀手》里的复制人，自己“做”朋友，和自己作朋友。纽约培养漫游者，而漫游本身又严重性别和阶级化，这项活动这个城市总在同一时刻带给我必须快速社交和必须长久自处的双重欲望，而哪一重都使人疲惫和快乐。这书也不新，最近去书店总看到它，随便放着就吸引我眼睛，没忍住找来读了，有些难以称重的失望，却发现【艺术有读】刚更新的一期也在讲它，许是冬天里就需要阅读关于寒冷城市和不幸人群的内容。
评分到纽约的第一周就有这种感觉了。
