Joseph Brodsky (1940-96) came to the United States in 1972, an involuntary exile from the Soviet Union. He received the Nobel Prize in Literature in 1987 and served as Poet Laureate of the United States in 1991 and 1992.
'Genius . . . bringing ardent intelligence to bear upon poetry, politics and autobiography' Seamus Heaney
Essayist and poet Joseph Brodsky was one of the most penetrating voices of the twentieth century. This prize-winning collection of his diverse essays includes uniquely powerful appreciations of great writers: on Dostoevsky and the development of Russian prose, on Auden and Akhmatova, Cavafy, Montale and Mandelstam. These are contrasted with his reflections on larger themes of tyranny and evil, and subtle evocations of his childhood in Leningrad. Brodsky's insightful appreciation of the intricacies of language, culture and identity connect these works, revealing his remarkable gifts as a prose writer.

这本书对我来说真是够晦涩了,专业的诗歌艺术批评,运用了关于哲学、语言学、美学、语义学多方面的知识,作者对各种诗歌作者、流派信手拈来,这对看书的人真的很是折磨。可能是它太专业了吧,我还没有达到那个水准,这本书里只有布罗茨基讲述他的父母、童年记忆和跌宕人生的两...
评分请允许我斗胆选择布罗茨基的散文集《小于一》,作一个建立在语词基础上的“观察”——之所以是“观察”,是为全篇主观片面之故。 当我们进行任何一项研究,都要查阅大量的资料——可以认为,每件资料反映出的形象都是实体的片段,或许是粉饰,或许是理想的反射,或许是属性的分...
评分老实说,布罗茨基先生《小于一》这本书摆在我床头已经很久了,原想睡前看半小时,很快就会有“全剧终”的一天。不料,半小时的时间被手机占去,于是咬咬牙再看十分钟——手机——睡吧。拖延至今,又不料,年底这本书大热,上了很多榜单。热有热的原因,“诺奖得主”,“政...
评分初读《小于一》,直观的感觉基本就是会的东西太少,要学的东西太多,一味的坐井自照,未免太过可笑。 不可否认,一开始是有过弃书的冲动的。这种目光落到文字上也能不自觉涣散的文章,本就不是我所喜爱的。可是,这个时代,我们喜爱一个东西那么容易,厌恶亦是习以为常。就像一...
评分本书曾经在我采购的清单上,但从图书馆借阅后,感觉很不舒服,一些关键之处意思莫名其妙,缺乏连贯性,整体感觉别扭,决定放弃。 老实说,我很奇怪。作者J. Brodsky的文学造诣毋庸置疑,1987年诺贝尔文学奖获得者,他的诗歌和文集在西方有大量的读者。倘若这中译本就是他的水准...

评分其实我正在读。的确很难…
评分Brilliant
评分"A certain advantage of totalitarianism is that it suggests to an individual a kind of vertical hierarchy of his own, with consciousness at the top. So we oversee what's going on inside ourselves. And then we punish ourselves. When we realise that this punishment isn't commensurate with the swine inside, we resort to alcohol and drink our wits out"
