John Kennedy Toole was an American novelist from New Orleans, Louisiana, best known for his novel A Confederacy of Dunces.
Toole's novels remained unpublished during his lifetime. Some years after his death by suicide, Toole's mother brought the manuscript of A Confederacy of Dunces to the attention of the novelist Walker Percy, who ushered the book into print. In 1981 Toole was posthumously awarded the Pulitzer Prize for Fiction.
This Pulitzer Prize-winning novel has sold over three-quarters of a million copies and continues to earn critical acclaim. The story of one Ignatius J. Reilly, a "Don Quixote of the French Quarter," it is a masterpiece of human folly and tragedy.

故事本身沒有大起大落,但是人物刻畫得非常形象,對話淋灕精緻,語言詼諧生動。朗讀者也非常到位,每個人物演繹得惟妙惟肖。不失為一次美好的閱讀。
評分犬儒的獨白。
評分非常喜歡!非常喜歡作者這種調子的幽默。因為去瞭new orleans纔知道瞭這本書,是一本似乎什麼都沒講的書。書內外作者的人生也是令人唏噓。
評分斷斷續續讀瞭三個月吧,確實不好讀,但又忍不住放下,讀完後又産生瞭還想再讀一遍的衝動。
評分My Ignatius Reilly makes me heart-broken.
