評分斷斷續續終於把Ken Liu劉宇昆的短篇小說集看完,幾乎不看科幻的我讀這本書有幾個原因: 1.想看看為啥他的作品很被認可,尤其是他的英文; 2.希望看一個在西方長大的華人如何理解錶現使用亞洲的曆史文化元素,而非傳統類型講中國的英文小說(大多講某苦難時期); 3. 有些好奇amaz...
評分第一次讀那篇獲奬無數的 “Paper Menagerie” 是高中備考SAT時做到的一篇閱讀理解,節選的內容和考試的試題主要探討瞭美國二代移民的身份認知與矛盾。當時還在國內讀書的我死活不能理解為什麼作者不願玩紙玩具,不願跟母親說英文,不願吃中國菜非要吃美國菜。 來美國的第三年重...

so cliche, but also so touching!
评分聽瞭audiobook,我隻想說你們不買賬的部分我買,不管是故事本身語言節奏還是敘述方式,我都被戳到瞭。
评分生病請瞭三天假。上一次這麼長時間地脫離現實還是大三時候住院。晚上讀瞭The Paper Menagerie,想起瞭當年收到的《病隙小郵》。人生仿佛虛構無端,總是充滿瞭好多的來不及,卻又漫幻不可知。 #病人容易情緒起伏
评分想象力揉雜著中國傳統文化元素,行文濕潤、傷感又溫柔。《The Paper Menagerie》直戳淚點。
评分書名叫 "Other Stories and The Paper Menagerie" 更好,頭兩篇喜歡,“We are different, you and I, and the qualia of our consciousnesses are as divergent as two stars at the ends of the universe.”
