Junichiro Tanizaki’s Some Prefer Nettles is an exquisitely nuanced exploration of the allure of ancient Japanese tradition—and the profound disquiet that accompanied its passing.
It is the 1920s in Tokyo, and Kaname and his wife Misako are trapped in a parody of a progressive Western marriage. No longer attracted to one another, they have long since stopped sleeping together and Kaname has sanctioned his wife’s liaisons with another man. But at the heart of their arrangement lies a sadness that impels Kaname to take refuge in the past, in the serene rituals of the classical puppet theater—and in a growing fixation with his father-in-law’s mistress. Some Prefer Nettles is an ethereally suggestive, psychologically complex exploration of the crisis every culture faces as it hurtles headfirst into modernity.

Kaname和Misako的离婚事件,Kaname对风流性感的带有西方血统的妓女Louise的渴望,以及对O-hisa这个被岳父调训成日本传统文化的doll的喜爱。一个人在日本传统和西方文化中徘徊,更确切地说,其实是一个国家在打开国门后经历着外来思想和生活理念的冲击。
评分相比mishima autobio(怎么觉得mishima每本都是autobio)的自恋,tanizaki autobio更多的是自省和自问自答吧。估计tanizaki活着也比mishima累挺多。然而这本真的不是细雪姐妹篇吗,一个嫁女一个离婚,一个记叙一个心理,都是没结局。
