评分"About eighty percent of what you believe about yourself when you’re twenty turns out to be wrong. The problem is you don’t know what your small true part is until much later.”

评分从去年读到今年,终于把它读完了。关于亲情的部分真是看得我泪流满面,你最爱的人却伤你最深,很多话无法说出口,只能forgive forgive forgive。这个主题也是,关于右派文化,关于消费时代,关于idealism and protests,切合时事得让人倒吸一口冷气。最后一章烂尾是最大的遗憾。#1
NATHAN HILL's short fiction has appeared in many literary journals, including The Iowa Review, AGNI, The Gettysburg Review, and Fiction, which awarded him its annual Fiction Prize. A native Iowan, he lives with his wife in Naples, Florida.
A Nix can take many forms. In Norwegian folklore, it is a spirit who sometimes appears as a white horse that steals children away. In Nathan Hill’s remarkable first novel, a Nix is anything you love that one day disappears, taking with it a piece of your heart.
It’s 2011, and Samuel Andresen-Anderson—college professor, stalled writer—has a Nix of his own: his mother, Faye. He hasn’t seen her in decades, not since she abandoned the family when he was a boy. Now she’s re-appeared, having committed an absurd crime that electrifies the nightly news, beguiles the internet, and inflames a politically divided country. The media paints Faye as a radical hippie with a sordid past, but as far as Samuel knows, his mother was an ordinary girl who married her high-school sweetheart. Which version of his mother is true? Two facts are certain: she’s facing some serious charges, and she needs Samuel’s help.
To save her, Samuel will have to embark on his own journey, uncovering long-buried secrets about the woman he thought he knew, secrets that stretch across generations and have their origin all the way back in Norway, home of the mysterious Nix. As he does so, Samuel will confront not only Faye’s losses but also his own lost love, and will relearn everything he thought he knew about his mother, and himself.
From the suburban Midwest to New York City to the 1968 riots that rocked Chicago and beyond, The Nix explores—with sharp humor and a fierce tenderness—the resilience of love and home, even in times of radical change.
NIX,在德国神话中,它是一种水中精灵,也谓之——水妖。在内森·希尔讲述的《水妖》的故事中,它不再是那个半人半鱼的的形象,而是一个来自于寒冷的挪威最北端极圈内那个小渔村中的古老神话,是一种会化身为白马的魅魔,它赢得了孩子们的爱,带着孩子们奔驰、飞舞,然后坠落。...
评分摘自《水妖》第三部分:敌人、障碍、谜题、陷阱 开车前往养老院的路上,佩里温克尔打来了电话。 “嘿,哥们儿,”他的出版商说,声音充满回音,“只是想问问情况。” “你听上去很遥远。你在哪儿?” “纽约。我的办公室。我开免提了。大楼底下有一群抗议者, 他们在尖叫乱喊。...
评分《水妖》是一部很难用一句话概括的小说,如果一定要说它有一个外在线索的话,那大概就是“派克袭击者”费伊,如何在早年被她抛弃的儿子萨缪尔的帮助下,把书腰上的新闻标题——激进嬉皮失足女教师恶意袭击派克州长致盲——中的这些标签一个个摘掉的过程:她不激进,也不是嬉皮...
评分 评分你最爱的事情会无情伤害你。因为你对最爱的事情不坦诚。你不坦诚的那方面不断的增加黑天鹅事件的几率知道有一天爆发。如果继续走一条看似简单的路只能让你一次又一次的割裂。 全书从60-70%进入高潮。可能是文化差异和自我知识的单薄,发生在1968年的历史事件毫无铺垫。倒是家庭...
