We are all bad people by default in living in this bad world or just bad people who don't realize that yet. Overall super insightful although sometimes I wish her voice could be more focused/assertive and less expansive.
评分三星半。第一次读的作者。Jia Tolentino 对”热点事件“和它们在媒体获得的论调都非常熟悉,可以把很多并不直接相关的内容联系在一起,形成独特的论述角度。优点是读着爽(而且信息量也比较大,可以说是不每天关注新闻的人的绝佳复习材料),但要说有什么深刻的/值得一提的“收获”好像也谈不上。Ecstasy 和 We Come From Old Virginia 两篇比较出彩。应该会继续关注 Tolentino 的作品~
评分No matter how trivial they might seem, cultural trends like our social media addictions, celebrity obsessions, and love for lavish weddings can help us better understand our social, political, and economic systems. They are trick mirrors that reflect not only our personal identities and relationships – but also shape the world we inhabit.
评分不知道中文怎么翻译。不同主题的散文集?每个主题下作者通过自身或他人的故事说明一些事情。整体很喜欢,印象比较深的有参加青少年节目,网络发展史利益最大化以及后面提到的女性权益,特别是很多历史发展和数据研究,譬如:同性婚姻家务分配比异性婚姻更公平;女性以自己姓氏命名是后期争取的。
评分可能2019年最喜欢的非虚构之一。Jia Tolentino讨论时事的framing非常厉害,观察入微,不时有令人拍案的金句。但这可能算是一部写给echo chamber内部的“爽文”,是well-read/well-educated liberal middle class内部的一次身份确认。 最喜欢:The I in the Internet, Ecstasy, We Come From Old Virginia。 最不喜欢:The Story of a Generation in Seven Scams (完全没有得到新的信息和point of view)
Jia Tolentino is a staff writer at the New Yorker, formerly the deputy editor at Jezebel and a contributing editor at the Hairpin. She grew up in Texas, went to University of Virginia, and got her MFA in fiction from the University of Michigan. She’s represented by Amy Williams and has a book of essays called Trick Mirror forthcoming from Random House in August. Her work has appeared in the New York Times, the New York Times Magazine, TIME, Grantland, Slate, Pitchfork, Bon Appetit, SPIN, and Fader. She has a dog, clearly, and lives in Brooklyn.
Trick Mirror is an enlightening, unforgettable trip through the river of self-delusion that surges just beneath the surface of our lives. This is a book about the incentives that shape us, and about how hard it is to see ourselves clearly in a culture that revolves around the self. In each essay, Jia writes about the cultural prisms that have shaped her: the rise of the nightmare social internet; the American scammer as millennial hero; the literary heroine’s journey from brave to blank to bitter; the mandate that everything, including our bodies, should always be getting more efficient and beautiful until we die.
