In 1936, Shostakovitch, just thirty, fears for his livelihood and his life. Stalin, hitherto a distant figure, has taken a sudden interest in his work and denounced his latest opera. Now, certain he will be exiled to Siberia (or, more likely, executed on the spot), Shostakovitch reflects on his predicament, his personal history, his parents, various women and wives, his children—and all who are still alive themselves hang in the balance of his fate. And though a stroke of luck prevents him from becoming yet another casualty of the Great Terror, for decades to come he will be held fast under the thumb of despotism: made to represent Soviet values at a cultural conference in New York City, forced into joining the Party and compelled, constantly, to weigh appeasing those in power against the integrity of his music.

Barnes elegantly guides us through the trajectory of Shostakovitch's career, at the same time illuminating the tumultuous evolution of the Soviet Union. The result is both a stunning portrait of a relentlessly fascinating man and a brilliant exploration of the meaning of art and its place in society.

权力羞辱了我们每一个人,有人流血成为了英雄,有人成为了历史上的懦夫,更多的人没有留下名字。但我们应该清楚,权力也双倍、反复地羞辱了懦夫,权力在官方、在私下,权力无处不在,你永远活在羞辱中。 肖斯塔科维奇访美,因为政治立场的问题,他崇敬的斯特拉文斯基拒绝了这次...

There is no escaping one's destiny。无人可免受命运摆布。这句话在这本薄薄的小书里出现了不下六次。 那么又是谁掌握着肖斯塔科维奇的命运? 《南海十三郎》里说,真正的天才只有两种结局,不是英年早逝如唐涤生,就是精神失常如南海十三郎。肖斯塔科维奇大概提供了另一种...

世人都瞧不起懦夫,崇拜英雄。 懦夫只为了自己能够活下来,唯唯诺诺,尽所有丧尽尊严之事都可以。英雄则为了理想或者是其它崇高的事物,毅然决然的不惜以生命为代价去追求。在文学作品中,歌颂英雄和英雄主义是永恒的主题。 但在《时间的噪音》中,歌颂的却是一位懦夫。 他...

强权下的死亡是多么可怖,又是多么仁慈啊,很惊讶作者作为西方人能理解

似乎近来英国作家苏联主题的作品颇多,也都写的很聪明很生动,但永远有一种被犬儒主义侵染的轻浮感。他自己也写的“such contamination of romance was all too likely in the modern world.” 也可能着就是为什么英国人尤其偏爱这种主题?渴望自相矛盾的悲剧。

Barnes把生活的複雜和精神的苦難描繪得太好。

评分

用三个超级长镜头,通过肖斯塔科维奇在一生中最关键的节点上(被党报批判,代表苏联在美国巡演,老年入党)清点自己的生活来讲他的一生,讲在集权下苟活的艺术和艺术家。结构新颖,文字也好,但如纽约时报所说,写肖斯塔科维奇思考人生,但写得更像是小说家思考肖斯塔科维奇思考人生。而且个人认为这种向内层层折叠的叙事结构只适合写短篇,不然读者老是憋着一口气等待叙事浮回现实的时间点,憋得好累。
