作者的想法很棒,在不断地读图中努力挖掘和看见所谓香港的过去与未来。 说起来“过去”确实看到的很多,尽管那些无从考证的伪引证和煞有其事的不断论证令人困惑——不过也恰恰是这种故弄姿态的喜感成为了阅读这本书快乐的源泉。 前面的理论篇似乎都没被太多人提及,作者故意地...
评分只有像董啟章這樣的人,才可如此想像香港,從每一幅歷史地圖中感受過去的風光,重述香港的特殊性與神話於《地圖集》中。 小說的形式很特別,至始而終只有一個仿似說書人的「我」口述本土在地圖上的角色與變遷。「我」擔當一個從歷史遺下的片段中想像過去的人,正如我們讀到某...
评分正如作者所言,小说家的想象和真实的重叠,大抵是最糟糕的事情。 伪装的地理勘探自然科学的按图索骥法。 作为建筑系来看,好奇的是建造和史料记载和符号图例的转换关系。可是阅读的过程中画面感很有限,总是点到即止,大概是作者吝于细节的细致叙述吧。 志怪故事...
评分因为我对香港既不怎么了解,也没什么兴趣,所以读起来觉得趣味了了。 但是这本书的形式挺有意思,想象的城市、虚构的历史,同时又交错着一些和现实有关的部分。如果是对香港了解很深的人应该觉得很好读。 本身地图是一个很有趣儿的东西。古代的地图会把人文意义放的很重,比...

Set in the long-lost City of Victoria (a fictional world similar to Hong Kong), Atlas is written from the unified perspective of future archaeologists struggling to rebuild a thrilling metropolis. Divided into four sections--"Theory," "The City," "Streets," and "Signs"--the novel reimagines Victoria through maps and other historical documents and artifacts, mixing real-world scenarios with purely imaginary people and events while incorporating anecdotes and actual and fictional social commentary and critique.
Much like the quasi-fictional adventures in map-reading and remapping explored by Paul Auster, Jorge Luis Borges, and Italo Calvino, Dung Kai-cheung's novel challenges the representation of place and history and the limits of technical and scientific media in reconstructing a history. It best exemplifies the author's versatility and experimentation, along with China's rapidly evolving literary culture, by blending fiction, nonfiction, and poetry in a story about succeeding and failing to recapture the things we lose. Playing with a variety of styles and subjects, Dung Kai-cheung inventively engages with the fate of Hong Kong since its British "handover" in 1997, which officially marked the end of colonial rule and the beginning of an uncharted future.
