Severance pdf epub mobi 圖書描述

Candace Chen, a millennial drone self-sequestered in a Manhattan office tower, is devoted to routine. With the recent passing of her Chinese immigrant parents, she’s had her fill of uncertainty. She’s content just to carry on: She goes to work, troubleshoots the teen-targeted Gemstone Bible, watches movies in a Greenpoint basement with her boyfriend.

So Candace barely notices when a plague of biblical proportions sweeps New York. Then Shen Fever spreads. Families flee. Companies cease operations. The subways screech to a halt. Her bosses enlist her as part of a dwindling skeleton crew with a big end-date payoff. Soon entirely alone, still unfevered, she photographs the eerie, abandoned city as the anonymous blogger NY Ghost.

Candace won’t be able to make it on her own forever, though. Enter a group of survivors, led by the power-hungry IT tech Bob. They’re traveling to a place called the Facility, where, Bob promises, they will have everything they need to start society anew. But Candace is carrying a secret she knows Bob will exploit. Should she escape from her rescuers?

A send-up and takedown of the rituals, routines, and missed opportunities of contemporary life, Ling Ma’s Severance is a moving family story, a quirky coming-of-adulthood tale, and a hilarious, deadpan satire. Most important, it’s a heartfelt tribute to the connections that drive us to do more than survive.

Severance pdf epub mobi 用戶評價

評分

四星送給本書帶來的四股近期Asian American文學的清流:一星給first-gen immigrant experience,二星給末日主題,三星給一顆不矯情的平常心,四星給為母則剛的世紀覺醒

評分

現在讀這本書看著新聞有點魔幻

評分

風趣幽默,節奏也蠻舒服;對末世的想象力實際上還蠻匱乏的,但是也是這樣纔讓人驚醒,我們在日常生活裏消費主義主導下的種種麻木錶現,和末日喪屍比起來又高明在哪裏

評分

故事很奇特。隻能用奇特來描述。書中的中國元素多多少少感覺有點雷同,有些情節有點牽強。但是不失為一個好故事。

評分

抑鬱中坐等刪失
