Joseph O'Neill is an Irish novelist and non-fiction writer.

O'Neill was born in Cork, Ireland, in 1964, and grew up in The Netherlands. He is a graduate of Girton College, Cambridge, and a barrister at the English Bar, where he practised for ten years, principally in the field of business law. He now lives in New York with his wife, Vogue editor Sally Singer, and their three sons.

O'Neill is the author of three novels, the most recent of which, Netherland, was published in May 2008 and was featured on the cover of the New York Times Book Review where it was called, "the wittiest, angriest, most exacting and most desolate work of fiction we’ve yet had about life in New York and London after the World Trade Center fell". He is also the author of a non-fiction book, Blood-Dark Track: A Family History, which was a New York Times Notable Book for 2002 and a book of the year for the Economist and the Irish Times.

O'Neill writes literary and cultural criticism, most regularly for the Atlantic Monthly.

这本书读得很慢,原因是这又是一本以传达情绪为主的书,而对于这种情绪的理解离开了特定的环境又变得非常困难。更糟糕的是,作为情绪情节线索的板球又是一种我这辈子都没见过的运动,而且即使见过,对于我这种对棒球规则都感觉费劲的人来说,也不可能有很正确的把握和很深刻的...

Netherland 2024 pdf epub mobi 电子书 图书描述

In a New York City made phantasmagorical by the events of 9/11, Hans--a banker originally from the Netherlands--finds himself marooned among the strange occupants of the Chelsea Hotel after his English wife and son return to London. Alone and untethered, feeling lost in the country he had come to regard as home, Hans stumbles upon the vibrant New York subculture of cricket, where he revisits his lost childhood and, thanks to a friendship with a charismatic and charming Trinidadian named Chuck Ramkissoon, begins to reconnect with his life and his adopted country. Ramkissoon, a Gatsby-like figure who is part idealist and part operator, introduces Hans to an “other” New York populated by immigrants and strivers of every race and nationality. Hans is alternately seduced and instructed by Chuck’s particular brand of naivete and chutzpah--by his ability to a hold fast to a sense of American and human possibility in which Hans has come to lose faith.

Netherland gives us both a flawlessly drawn picture of a little-known New York and a story of much larger, and brilliantly achieved ambition: the grand strangeness and fading promise of 21st century America from an outsider’s vantage point, and the complicated relationship between the American dream and the particular dreamers. Most immediately, though, it is the story of one man--of a marriage foundering and recuperating in its mystery and ordinariness, of the shallows and depths of male friendship, of mourning and memory. Joseph O’Neill’s prose, in its conscientiousness and beauty, involves us utterly in the struggle for meaning that governs any single life.

啰啰嗦嗦唧唧歪歪的中年危机第一世界烦恼。好好打板球、搞黑帮不好么?

评分

一个荷兰人在纽约的中产故事,尽是荒唐无奈,荒唐的婚姻关系,荒唐的纽约地景,荒唐的跨国身份,荒唐的板球,最终也还是中产式的妥协。尽管板球成为连接“地上世界”和“地下世界”这对隐喻的连结点,但是它自身太弱了,远构不成现实主义的神话,还不如说是中产的自嘲,看不出其中有什么积极意义上的后9·11的“回归”。
