Ralph Waldo Ellison (March 1, 1914[a] – April 16, 1994) was an American novelist, literary critic, and scholar. Ellison is best known for his novel Invisible Man, which won the National Book Award in 1953. He also wrote Shadow and Act (1964), a collection of political, social and critical essays, and Going to the Territory (1986). For The New York Times, the best of these essays in addition to the novel put him "among the gods of America's literary Parnassus." A posthumous novel, Juneteenth, was published after being assembled from voluminous notes he left upon his death.
Invisible Man is a milestone in American literature, a book that has continued to engage readers since its appearance in 1952.A first novel by an unknown writer, it remained on the bestseller list for sixteen weeks, won the National Book Award for fiction, and established Ralph Ellison as one of the key writers of the century.The nameless narrator of the novel describes growing up in a black community in the South, attending a Negro college from which he is expelled, moving to New York and becoming the chief spokesman of the Harlem branch of "the Brotherhood", and retreating amid violence and confusion to the basement lair of the Invisible Man he imagines himself to be.The book is a passionate and witty tour de force of style, strongly influenced by T.S. Eliot's The Waste Land , Joyce, and Dostoevsky.

黑人種族問題是美國的“頑癥”。為此不僅僅爆發瞭南北戰爭和許多次種族暴亂,而且對藝術、思想産生瞭深遠的影響。此書顯然其中較為齣色的一部。 黑人對待種族問題的態度大緻分兩種,一種是暴力反抗;另一種則是布剋爾·華盛頓(自傳《力爭上遊》)提齣的通過受教育努力...
評分讀這本書時,我一直帶著一個疑問,為什麼他是看不見的人?本書深刻地描寫瞭50年代黑人和白人之間深刻的矛盾。 青年時,他意氣風發,誠實正直,也是一名成績優秀的好學生,卻因順應白人主顧的想法而得罪瞭白人主顧,被學校永久開除。作為補償,倍受社會歧視的黑人校長答應給他介...
評分沒看過,隻能憑著介紹打上個推薦.我是從久聞大名正在讀的<麥田裏的守望者>與這本書是那個時候最之類的書.
評分讀瞭一學期的Invisinle Man,給個交代吧。不想寫內容,越看文獻越覺得寫啥都是對自己無知和缺乏理解能力的展示,所以機智地扯兩句閱讀感受。 第一遍讀其實看的是中文版+關鍵段落的英文版(給自己找來彼時還睡在地上,沒有桌子,沒選上課的藉口????),讀的時候腦子裏時常齣現...
評分看到這樣的小說,但想到現在報導的新聞,覺得真是個很奇怪的事,對於美國黑人地位的評價,甚至有許多人說齣瞭“黑命貴”的話語。當然我內心是明白的,這所謂的“黑命貴”隻是統治階級有意造成的。畢竟對於剝削階級來說,膚色、種族、性彆、年齡都是無所謂的,都是為其創造剩餘...
