A Man Without a Country 2024 pdf epub mobi 电子书 著者简介

Kurt Vonnegut is among the very few grandmasters of contemporary American letters, without whom the very term "American literature" would mean less than it does. His novels include Cat's Cradle and Slaughterhouse Five, among so many others. Projects with Seven Stories Press in recent years include God Bless You, Dr. Kevorkian and, with Lee Stringer, Like Shaking Hands with God, a book about writing. His most recent novel is Timequake (1997). In addition to his writing, Vonnegut is a visual artist of note. His paintings and prints can be seen at www.vonnegut.com. He lives with his wife, photographer Jill Krementz, in New York City.

A Man Without a Country 电子书 读后感

评分

如果按照中国现在流行的说法,冯内古特会被许多人参照林奈老先生的分类学归到一种叫“愤青”的脑残生物种属,或许还要在前面加一个修饰词,“老”——“老愤青”。但其实这完全是两码事,其差异的程度完全等同于人与猪之间的差别,虽然两者都很“愤怒”,但本质的区别在于,冯...  

评分

这篇评论只是借了冯老先生的书名。我想尝试着说清楚对这个世界的一些看法。由于太过用力地摆脱“统一口径”,思维有些破碎。那就来些碎片吧。 这段时间最热闹的事件大概就是抵制家乐福了。抵制短信到处传播,为数众多的中华儿女群情激奋,义愤填膺,积极响应。 我...

不可否认冯内古特仍不愧是一位语言大师,他那文字当中透露出的灵气和机智并没有因为他的年龄而褪色 比如在这本书的开头,他写到: http://www.sevenstories.com/html/custom/images/Mafia.jpg 善 战胜不了 恶 ...  

评分

很多人对知识分子也许缺乏好感,这大概是受了影视作品的毒害,在描述中,知识分子总是些孱弱而乏味的中年人模样,或郁郁寡欢,或苦大仇深,看别人的眼神总像是人家欠着他几千块没还,偶尔讲一个笑话,也冷得使人连打寒颤。这样的知识分子,说实话,真不怎么可爱。如果去除学识...

A Man Without a Country 2024 pdf epub mobi 电子书 图书描述

A Man Without a Country is Kurt Vonnegut's hilarious and razor-sharp look at life ("If I die-God forbid-I would like to go to heaven to ask somebody in charge up there, 'Hey, what was the good news and what was the bad news?'"), art ("To practice any art, no matter how well or badly, is a way to make your soul grow. So do it."), politics ("I asked former Yankees pitcher Jim Bouton what he thought of our great victory over Iraq and he said, 'Mohammed Ali versus Mr. Rogers.'"), and the condition of the soul of America today ("What has happened to us?"). Gleaned from short essays and speeches composed over the last five years and plentifully illustrated with artwork by the author throughout, A Man Without a Country gives us Vonnegut both speaking out with indignation and writing tenderly to his fellow Americans, sometimes joking, at other times hopeless, always searching.

From Publishers Weekly

In his first book since 1999, it's just like old times as Vonnegut (now 82) makes with the deeply black humor in this collection of articles written over the last five years, many from the alternative magazine In These Times. But the pessimistic wisecracks may be wearing thin; the conversational tone of the pieces is like Garrison Keillor with a savage undercurrent. Still, the schtick works fine most of the time, underscored by hand-lettered aphorisms between chapters. Some essays suffer from authorial self-indulgence, however, like taking a dull story about mailing a manuscript and stretching it to interminable lengths. Vonnegut reserves special bile for the "psychopathic personalities" (i.e., "smart, personable people who have no consciences") in the Bush administration, which he accuses of invading Iraq so America can score more of the oil to which we have become addicted. People, he says, are just "chimpanzees who get crazy drunk on power." Of course, that's exactly the sort of misanthropy hardcore Vonnegut fans will lap up—the online versions of these pieces are already described as the most popular Web pages in the history of In These Times. (Sept.)

Very easy to read and yet one of the funniest sarcastic tribute to the 20th century America

评分

Vonnegut老爷子的最后一部作品。五星致敬老爷子。82岁时的他依旧保持着辛辣、愤怒,带者黑色幽默,嬉笑怒骂。这本中一些批判内容也贯穿在前几本作品里,所以会略感到有点重复,但同时也让我感觉到老爷子“只要我还剩一口气,我就不会停止骂”的力量和精神以及提醒后生们保持警醒的用心。老爷子的妙语依旧让我爆笑好多次。笑着笑着,看到后面又被老爷子的话语触动到含泪, 又感动,又悲伤。还好,老爷子已辞世,不用看到13年后不但没长进反而更加一泡污的世界,以及川普。R.I.P. 【请允许我死后和您一起喝一杯呀

评分

在浙图看的。封底上我第一次看到了这个连自传都不认真写的老头子的照片 比想象中诙谐 长的就是一个gallow comedian。Vonnegut老头子说 man on moon must be using Earth as their lunatic asylum. 他还说 being human is not a treat for an animal. 在浙图的时候我还觉得老愤青是说着幽默 走出浙图半个小时以后 我发现这家伙说的还真他妈的对。

intelligent and humorous

No matter how corrupt, greedy, and heartless our government, our corporations, our media, and our religious and charitable institutions may become, the music will still be wonderful... hah, i love this guy, and i wanna let it be my epitaph...
