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.

評分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...
評分我用5天的時間把這本書讀完瞭,感覺,拉爾夫 艾裏森的作品讀起來總是怪怪的。20世紀30-60年代正是美國哈萊姆黑人文藝復興時期,和當時美國民權運動興起的多事之鞦時,在這段時期裏同類型的作品和同時期黑人作傢的作品如:亞格利斯 哈裏的《根》,鮑德溫的《另一個國度》,和...
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...
