《纽约三部曲》令我对保罗•奥斯特没好感。媚雅、做作、故弄玄虚、空洞薄弱、迎合全民后现代的雕虫小技,用量贩式的大师造型企图掩饰没有讲一个好故事、或讲好一个故事的能力,也没有不讲故事的底气。想到王家卫、王小帅都得过戛纳奖,关于奥斯特曾获美第奇奖一事也并不费解...
评分这是第二本我读的保罗奥斯特的书。第一本是风格八竿子打不着的《密室中的旅行》,当意识到它并不适合作为该作者的入门书籍后,我肠子都悔青了,于是产生了本书的阅读欲。 《密室》一个是俄罗斯娃娃套装般精心构造的故事迷宫,《布鲁克林》则是一个没有太多叙事技巧的温情故事...
评分先前零零碎碎看过几十页。这个阴雨绵绵的周六,窝在寝室里冻得要死,于是坚定地当寝室留守儿童。花了整个下午的时间终于一口气看完了整本书。之后发了半个小时呆。随着故事中的人物一路走来仿佛自己也把这些曲折都经历了一遍,很疲惫,也有很多感慨。 翻译毕竟不能展现全貌,...

评分人生都是意外的,也许在自认为最落魄等死之时,某些交集与契机会重新唤醒很多与之一样等死之人的重生。 人对人的影响或许都是不可自知的,唯一的解释,或许就只能像小丸子说的那样:“只要活着,就会有好事的。” 在某些时期,你会无可奈何极端的把自己当做一个无足轻重的小...

Nathan Glass has come to Brooklyn to die. Divorced, estranged from his only daughter, the retired life insurance salesman seeks only solitude and anonymity. Then Nathan finds his long-lost nephew, Tom Wood, working in a local bookstore - a far cry from the brilliant academic career he'd begun when Nathan saw him last. Tom's boss is the charismatic Harry Brightman, whom fate has also brought to the "ancient kingdom of Brooklyn, New York." Through Tom and Harry, Nathan's world gradually broadens to include a new set of acquaintances - not to mention a stray relative or two - and leads him to a reckoning with his past. Among the many twists in the delicious plot are a scam involving a forgery of the first page of The Scarlet Letter, a disturbing revelation that takes place in a sperm bank, and an impossible, utopian dream of a rural refuge. Meanwhile, the wry and acerbic Nathan has undertaken something he calls The Book of Human Folly, in which he proposes "to set down in the simplest, clearest language possible an account of every blunder, every pratfall, every embarrassment, every idiocy, every foible, and every inane act I had committed during my long and checkered career as a man." But life takes over instead, and Nathan's despair is swept away as he finds himself more and more implicated in the joys and sorrows of others. The Brooklyn Follies is Paul Auster's warmest, most exuberant novel, a moving and unforgettable hymn to the glories and mysteries of ordinary human life.
