Saul Bellow is the winner of the 1976 Nobel Prize for Liter Ature.
Saul Bellow (June 10, 1915 – April 5, 2005) was a Canadian-born American writer. For his literary contributions, Bellow was awarded the Pulitzer Prize, the Nobel Prize for Literature, and the National Medal of Arts.[2] He is the only writer to have won the National Book Award three times, and the only writer to have been nominated for it six times.
In the words of the Swedish Nobel Committee, his writing exhibited "the mixture of rich picaresque novel and subtle analysis of our culture, of entertaining adventure, drastic and tragic episodes in quick succession interspersed with philosophic conversation, all developed by a commentator with a witty tongue and penetrating insight into the outer and inner complications that drive us to act, or prevent us from acting, and that can be called the dilemma of our age."[3] His best-known works include The Adventures of Augie March, Herzog, Mr. Sammler's Planet, Seize the Day, Humboldt's Gift and Ravelstein. Widely regarded as one of the twentieth century's greatest authors, Bellow has had a "huge literary influence."

Henderson the Rain King, is seriocomic novel by Saul Bellow, first published in 1959. The novel examines the midlife crisis of Eugene Henderson, an unhappy millionaire. The story concerns Henderson's search for meaning. A larger-than-life 55-year-old who has accumulated money, position, and a large family, he nonetheless feels unfulfilled. He makes a spiritual journey to Africa, where he draws emotional sustenance from experiences with African tribes. Deciding that his true destiny is as a healer, Henderson returns home, planning to enter medical school. a oeA kind of wildly delirious dream made real by the force of Bellowa (TM)s rollicking prose and the offbeat inventiveness of his language.a a " Chicago Tribune a oeBellowa (TM)s aura of fable is constantly washed over by humor, impulsive creation, and actual, turbulent detail.a a " The Nation
首先这是一本儿小说(废话了)。在索尔 贝娄所有为所谓中产阶级或者说为知识分子所写的小说里,这本儿算是比较容易看进去的。翻译没得挑,很不错。 “尽管我们活着需要面对各种危急和苦难,但苦难是...一切事物中最接近于令人顶礼膜拜的东西”。 “对于一切生物来说,世...
评分接触的第二本索尔贝娄的作品,相比于《洪堡的礼物》中对城市知识分子精神漩涡的剖析,《雨王亨德森》显然是向所有城市阶层或者说在现代文明下生活的人们提供了一次自我探寻的精神苦旅,也更加易懂。主人公亨德森的存在主义危机一方面是由于机械化复制时代给人们带来的虚幻景观...
