Our narrator should be happy, shouldn't she? She's young, thin, pretty, a recent Columbia graduate, works an easy job at a hip art gallery, lives in an apartment on the Upper East Side of Manhattan paid for, like the rest of her needs, by her inheritance. But there is a dark and vacuous hole in her heart, and it isn't just the loss of her parents, or the way her Wall Street boyfriend treats her, or her sadomasochistic relationship with her best friend, Reva. It's the year 2000 in a city aglitter with wealth and possibility; what could be so terribly wrong?
My Year of Rest and Relaxation is a powerful answer to that question. Through the story of a year spent under the influence of a truly mad combination of drugs designed to heal our heroine from her alienation from this world, Moshfegh shows us how reasonable, even necessary, alienation can be. Both tender and blackly funny, merciless and compassionate, it is a showcase for the gifts of one of our major writers working at the height of her powers.
很幽默,但是有点单薄呀,300页也不短了,但竟然觉得空空哒
评分黑色幽默。是怎么做到这么极端的干巴巴的呀
评分面对生活各有选择,书中主人公选择的是平静地过渡(逃避),但人生总得有与其抗争的一面,需要我们直接面对它,不论是痛苦还是辛辣。
评分sardonism and nihilism 十分应景
评分简直丧破天际了。结尾有点说不上来,就感觉挺失望的。读起来和conversations with friends倒是挺像,想来年轻好看的白人中产女孩拥有的都是相似的烦恼吧。(现在看失望的一个原因可能是被标题骗了,哪里有什么rest&relaxation嘛,我只读到了trouble&trauma)
