[美] 库尔特·冯内古特(Kurt Vonnegut,1922—2007)
美国后现代主义文学大师,黑色幽默文学的代表人物,与马克·吐温并称。以喜剧形式表现悲剧内容,在灾难、荒诞、绝望面前发出笑声。这种“黑色幽默”风格始终是冯内古特小说创作的重要特质。其代表作《五号屠宰场》《时震》抓住了他处身时代的情绪,并激发了一代人的想象。
冯内古特是出生在美国的犹太人,1940年考取康奈尔大学,主修化学。1944年珍珠港事件爆发,主张反战的他志愿参军,远赴欧洲战场。1945年遭德军俘虏,被囚禁在德累斯顿战俘营。冯内古特的文学创作,不少灵感正是来自于在战俘营的经历。战后冯内古特在芝加哥大学获得人类学硕士学位,后在哈佛大学任教。他从50年代起开始发表短篇小说,60年代起开始出版长篇。晚年的冯内古特在曼哈顿和纽约长岛的田园里颐养天年。2007 年3月在家中楼梯上不慎摔倒,同年4 月11 日,在曼哈顿逝世。

“每个人都觉得自己是受害者,而不是参与者。这个人说‘我坐过牢’,那个人说‘我打过仗’,第三个人就说‘我曾经在一片废墟上建设起一座城市,没日没夜地搬运砖石啊’。完全出乎意料的是,人人都因自由而陶醉,但谁也没准备好面对自由。自由,它到底在哪儿啊?人们仍然只习惯...

A small, exclusive college in upstate New York is nestled along the frozen shores of Lake Mohiga . . . and directly across from a maximum-security prison. The two institutions manage to coexist peacefully, until 10,000 prisoners break out and head directly for the college. "Sharp-toothed satire . . . absurd humor".--San Francisco Chronicle.

评分Huh? Why am I reading this?
评分Don't let the first part fool you, this is a great book. And the second part will explain the ramble in the first part. It's a little depressing to read as well, as human nature and war always are, so be prepared. We learned to play games, both ours and others, when we were kids. And as we grew up, the games just got bigger and bigger.

评分The ever-so-Vonnegutian Vonnegut. DON'T PANIC at the very end of the book. Just because some of us can read and write and do a little math, that doesn't mean we can conquer the universe.Bombastic, but always the very truth. Chinese Japanese and Vietnam everywhere in this book. Pity that I haven't found anything about Kilgore Trout.
