A NEW YORK TIMES NOTABLE BOOK OF THE YEAR
National book Critics Circle Award Finalist
"Anne Carson is, for me, the most exciting poet writing in English today."--Michael Ondaatje
"This book is amazing--I haven't discovered any writing in years so marvelously disturbing." --Alice Munro
The award-winning poet Anne Carson reinvents a genre in Autobiography of Red, a stunning work that is both a novel and a poem, both an unconventional re-creation of an ancient Greek myth and a wholly original coming-of-age story set in the present.
Geryon, a young boy who is also a winged red monster, reveals the volcanic terrain of his fragile, tormented soul in an autobiography he begins at the age of five. As he grows older, Geryon escapes his abusive brother and affectionate but ineffectual mother, finding solace behind the lens of his camera and in the arms of a young man named Herakles, a cavalier drifter who leaves him at the peak of infatuation. When Herakles reappears years later, Geryon confronts again the pain of his desire and embarks on a journey that will unleash his creative imagination to its fullest extent. By turns whimsical and haunting, erudite and accessible, richly layered and deceptively simple, Autobiography of Red is a profoundly moving portrait of an artist coming to terms with the fantastic accident of who he is.
"A profound love story . . . sensuous and funny, poignant, musical and tender."--The New York Times Book Review
"A deeply odd and immensely engaging book. . . . [Carson] exposes with passionate force the mythic underlying the explosive everyday."--The Village Voice

圖書標籤: AnneCarson 詩歌 安妮·卡森 詩 英文 外國文學 小說 同性
也許Anne Carson的作品都帶有斷片的本質,詩性的斷片。這是一位圖書管理員嚮我推薦的,他至愛的書之一。我想像他就是個Geryon.
評分我們是火的鄰居
評分大概讀的不夠細緻,感覺文本裏應該有很多小機關都被我錯過瞭。文字上,卡森與阿特伍德和翁達傑在伯仲之間吧。看完書倒是被安利瞭一把Emily Dickinson。
評分Haven't read anything like this before. You can finish it in an afternoon in a bookstore. But you'll want to buy it after all so that you can take it home and stash it on your nightstand and relish it when you feel like it.
