Description

Translating Myself and Others is a collection of candid and disarmingly personal essays by Pulitzer Prize–winning author Jhumpa Lahiri

◆内容简介 “从毁灭中幸存的人和物,只能在下辈子创造故事。” 这是一群流浪者的二十四小时故事。在1000号高速公路旁的圣瓦莱里荒地上,到处都是破损的卡车和坏掉的机器。这里居住着一群无家可归的人:拥有蝴蝶般嗓音的维柯、总是在清洗的维卡、用纸做衣服的杰克、会唱歌的阿方索、读《圣经》的索尔、爱晒太阳的马尔塞洛……他们曾经充满希望,如今却被社会抛弃。 主人公国王是维柯、维卡夫妇收养的流浪犬。他从屠夫那里偷肉,给予他人温暖,其犬类的思维使他既能超脱于人类的苦难,又能罕见地洞察同伴们的生活。通过他的感官世界,我们清晰地看到了这群边缘人在混乱和痛苦中生存下来的尊严和力量。 ◆相关评论 《国王》冷酷无情,令人心碎。 ——《洛杉矶时报》 伯格试图通过小说探索自身政治和道德信念的雄心,从未如此这般得以实现。 ——《泰晤士报文学增刊》 《国王》的故事让我们得以了解一个容易被人忽视的世界。翻完最后一页久久不能释怀。 ——《科克斯书评》 King是一条狗的名字,他通过这条狗来写这群人,写出了流浪汉自己的世界。这里有一种互相依赖,有一种温情,有一种爱,当然很惨,但他们也不是完全无力的受害者,他们在构造一个世界。 ——牛津大学人类学教授项飙
