Set among a remote cluster of cave dwellings in Shanxi province, There's Nothing I Can Do When I Think of You Late at Night is a genre-defying expose of rural communism. In a series of vivid, interlocking vignettes, several narrators speak of adultery, bestiality, incest, and vice, revealing the consequences of desire in a world of necessity. The Wen Clan Caves are based on an isolated village where the author, Cao Naiqian, lived during the Cultural Revolution. The land is hard and unforgiving and the people suffer in poverty and ignorance. Through the individual perspectives of the Wen Clan denizens, a complete portrait of village life takes shape. Dark yet lyrical, Cao's snapshots range from pastoral stories of childhood innocence to shocking accounts of brutality and terror. His work echoes William Faulkner's Go Down, Moses and Sherwood Anderson's Winesburg, Ohio, yet the author's depictions of elemental passions and regional mores make the book entirely his own. Celebrated for its economy of expression, flashes of humor, and an emphasis on understatement rarely found in Chinese fiction, There's Nothing I Can Do When I Think of You Late at Night is an excellent introduction to the power and craft of Cao Naiqian. His vivid personalities and unflinching realism herald the haunting work of an original literary force.
很久没有读大陆当代小说了,常常翻看不过数页便作罢,陈词滥调,要么娇柔做作,要么玩世不恭。看到这本书的书名,心头一喜,如今还有这样质朴直接的话,看到李悦然在序中力荐,仍有些怀疑,然而读第一篇才几行就开始震撼。我似乎看到《左传》的影子,曹乃谦是驾驭故事的...
评分如果不是马悦然(Goran Malmqvist,注意,不是张悦然哦,马是诺贝尔文学奖评委中唯一一个精通汉语的家伙,他有本随笔集是用汉语写的,叫《另一种乡愁》,搞得我以为他是个华裔。)盛赞此书,我可能听都不会听说它。2005年,马悦然自己买了飞机票来到温家窑。村里人从未见过他这...
评分我前天买了本曹乃谦的《到黑夜想你没办法》。黄昏开读,读到黑夜惊喜没办法。多年以前,刘亮程带来过类似的惊喜。刘的成名作是《一个人的村庄》,曹则写过一本《最后的村庄》。不过他们很不同。都是乡土,刘亮程特小农情调,号称后工业化时代的乡村哲学。曹乃谦特土,据说是一...
评分发表时题目被改为《被马悦然“钦点”的曹乃谦》,《文学报·新批评》2012.8.16 韦勒克、沃伦说:“伟大的小说家们都有一个自己的世界,人们可以从中看出这一世界和经验世界的部分重合,但是从它的自我连贯的可理解性来说它又是一个...
评分说实话,如果仅凭马悦然、陈忠实、李锐、王安忆他们的评价,我是不会去读曹乃谦的。让我感兴趣的,其实是汪曾祺先生的一句话——一口气看完了,脱口说“好!” 汪先生是我喜欢的作家,他的文章、见识我都是很推崇的,他老先生脱口说“好”的玩意儿,应该不错。于是,我就找来...
