乔纳森•弗兰岑说:“这本书忠实地记载了我这个人。” 2001年《纠正》出版之时,他的父亲已于1995年过世,母亲也在前几年过世,他十四年的婚姻也早已崩解。这时候,他自己,是他唯一的“家”。 他出生于1959年,工程师父亲,家庭主妇母亲。他是个老来子,家里还有两个大很多...
评分当意识到自己已经浪费了太多时间浏览(甚至只是刷新)网页,我(仍然是通过点击)买来了kindle阅览器,而入账的第一本书,是乔纳森•弗兰岑(Jonathan Franzen)的《如何孤独》(How to Be Alone, 2002)。弗兰岑以抨击传媒时代、宣扬文以载道著称,我想我有必要接受他的再教...
评分【读品】罗豫/文 崇尚标新立异的年代,没有底气的作家恐怕还不敢老老实实写小说。美国作家乔纳森·弗兰岑的《纠正》一书,如果不是这个奖那个奖拿了一大堆,商业宣传上会相当缺乏“卖点”:主角是一个再平常不过的美国家庭,随便扔块石头到大洋彼岸就能砸到这么一家子。“人生...
评分因为马上要毕业了,对于未来感到恐惧,所以喜欢看这种大家一起搞砸自己的人生的小说。 Chipper 出国的那段太迷幻了,读起来有点割裂和难受。 大哥的情节,一个拥有完美生活的中年男人慢慢失心疯掉,屈辱地埋没在父辈的阴影中。 正在读 Alfred 的这一段,好像在解释说一切错误都...

Winner of the National Book Award for FictionNominated for the National Book Critics Circle AwardAn American Library Association Notable BookJonathan Franzen's third novel, "The Corrections," is a great work of art and a grandly entertaining overture to our new century: a bold, comic, tragic, deeply moving family drama that stretches from the Midwest at mid-century to Wall Street and Eastern Europe in the age of greed and globalism. Franzen brings an old-time America of freight trains and civic duty, of Cub Scouts and Christmas cookies and sexual inhibitions, into brilliant collision with the modern absurdities of brain science, home surveillance, hands-off parenting, do-it-yourself mental healthcare, and the anti-gravity New Economy. With "The Corrections," Franzen emerges as one of our premier interpreters of American society and the American soul.Enid Lambert is terribly, terribly anxious. Although she would never admit it to her neighbors or her three grown children, her husband, Alfred, is losing his grip on reality. Maybe it's the medication that Alfred takes for his Parkinson's disease, or maybe it's his negative attitude, but he spends his days brooding in the basement and committing shadowy, unspeakable acts. More and more often, he doesn't seem to understand a word Enid says.Trouble is also brewing in the lives of Enid's children. Her older son, Gary, a banker in Philadelphia, has turned cruel and materialistic and is trying to force his parents out of their old house and into a tiny apartment. The middle child, Chip, has suddenly and for no good reason quit his exciting job as a professor at D------ College and moved to New York City, where he seems to be pursuing a"transgressive" lifestyle and writing some sort of screenplay. Meanwhile the baby of the family, Denise, has escaped her disastrous marriage only to pour her youth and beauty down the drain of an affair with a married man--or so Gary hints.Enid, who loves to have fun, can still look forward to a final family Christmas and to the ten-day Nordic Pleasurelines Luxury Fall Color Cruise that she and Alfred are about to embark on. But even these few remaining joys are threatened by her husband's growing confusion and unsteadiness. As Alfred enters his final decline, the Lamberts must face the failures, secrets, and long-buried hurts that haunt them as a family if they are to make the corrections that each desperately needs.
Good American story, but not as good as “the freedom”. Bit too labored at times.
