'Language is a body, a living creature ...and this creature's home is the inarticulate as well as the articulate'.
John Berger's work has revolutionized the way we understand visual language.
In this new book he writes about language itself, and how it relates to thought, art, song, storytelling and political discourse today.
Also containing Berger's own drawings, notes, memories and reflections on everything from Albert Camus to global capitalism, Confabulations takes us to what is 'true, essential and urgent'.

一天讀一本書的節奏又迴來瞭的感覺。贊同大叔的種種觀點,雖然他的行文風格不是我最喜歡的,但為瞭第一章和最後一章打四星。
評分很好讀的小集子,睡前讀一兩篇,依舊有社會人文的關懷,簡單但也不是太沉重,那種嚼著淚花的喜悅。會對比當下的時政,在這種更抽象的文字當中,心裏會稍微好過一些。延展性上來講,以後有機會再作拓展閱讀吧。
評分Conspiracy of orphans. Proverbial knowledge of Charlie Chaplin. Arcadia. Historic loneliness. Jinx and triumph.
評分Berger真的很能找到事物不同的切入點和相互之間的關聯。非常喜歡La Lalala Lalala La裏把鰻魚的習性與外觀、歌唱演奏、教堂馬賽剋的體現原理和人類學結閤在一起,Some notes about song也是。老爺子對社會及政治的洞察力也是一流。每天睡前讀個一兩篇很好。
