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.

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。
评分这本书有大量美国社会文化和自身经历的旁征博引,字里行间都透露着爽落,聪明和高知(褒义)。我自己的阅读体验是渐入佳境的,在适应了她的叙述方式后最后几章听得几乎落泪。
评分first, how the internet is built to distend our sense of identity; second, how it encourages us to overvalue our opinions; third, how it maximizes our sense of opposition; fourth, how it cheapens our understanding of solidarity; and, finally, how it destroys our sense of scale.
评分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)
