不太懂作者想表达什么,但是很喜欢她的文字。
评分some sort of elegant, sick, cool, hallucinatory genius. love the prose, progression of story never lulls (antsy-peaceful-occasional blackout-full hibernation), the caricature of contemporary art, the psychiatrist and the best friend character, the ending imagery haunting. sleeping/hibernation as (a mockery of) performance art.
评分简直丧破天际了。结尾有点说不上来,就感觉挺失望的。读起来和conversations with friends倒是挺像,想来年轻好看的白人中产女孩拥有的都是相似的烦恼吧。(现在看失望的一个原因可能是被标题骗了,哪里有什么rest&relaxation嘛,我只读到了trouble&trauma)
评分家庭冷暴力的成长环境,反复无常的男友,离世的双亲,对参与社会太过积极的朋友…最精彩的是最后几十页,真正的hibernation以简单一句get rid of something作为对过往总结而开始。确实,有时候最general就是最确切,这些超出常人承受范围的凉薄与残忍只能用something来概括。全书就是描述一种在主观意愿占主导的空洞,并不是一种单纯的消极避世心理,而是在各种情绪观感慢慢退化后自己选择性与世界脱节的空洞,这是空洞也是自救。别人人眼中的浪费对于她来说只是重新洗洗底牌而已,I’m blonde pretty and young, 这个社会的入场券对这样的人来说从来不会过期。Harvard Bookstore bestseller #4
评分很幽默,但是有点单薄呀,300页也不短了,但竟然觉得空空哒
Ottessa Moshfegh is a fiction writer from New England. Her first book, McGlue, a novella, won the Fence Modern Prize in Prose and the Believer Book Award. She is also the author of the short story collection Homesick for Another World. Her stories have been published in The Paris Review, The New Yorker, and Granta, and have earned her a Pushcart Prize, an O. Henry Award, the Plimpton Discovery Prize, and a grant from the National Endowment for the Arts. Eileen, her first novel, was shortlisted for the National Book Critics Circle Award and the Man Booker Prize, and won the PEN/Hemingway Award for debut fiction.
Our narrator should be happy, shouldn't she? She's young, thin, pretty, a recent Columbia graduate, works an easy job at a hip art gallery, lives in an apartment on the Upper East Side of Manhattan paid for, like the rest of her needs, by her inheritance. But there is a dark and vacuous hole in her heart, and it isn't just the loss of her parents, or the way her Wall Street boyfriend treats her, or her sadomasochistic relationship with her best friend, Reva. It's the year 2000 in a city aglitter with wealth and possibility; what could be so terribly wrong?
My Year of Rest and Relaxation is a powerful answer to that question. Through the story of a year spent under the influence of a truly mad combination of drugs designed to heal our heroine from her alienation from this world, Moshfegh shows us how reasonable, even necessary, alienation can be. Both tender and blackly funny, merciless and compassionate, it is a showcase for the gifts of one of our major writers working at the height of her powers.
