Product Description
Marcelo, a humble clerk in a Barcelona office who might have come from a novel by Kafka, inhabits a world peopled by characters in literature. He once wrote a novel about the impossibility of love, but since then he has written nothing and a mental trauma has meant that he has been unable to put pen to paper; he has become a 'Bartleby', so named after the character in Herman Melville's short story who, when asked to do something, always replied negatively: 'I would prefer not to.'One day Marcelo, decides to make a search through literature for all possible Bartlebys who, for whatever reason, have had the urge to say 'no'., and to this end he has the engagingly original notion of keeping a diary and writing footnotes to an invisible text. His references to authors, both real and invented, provide the reader with extravagant doses of humour that are at once hilarious, irreverent and stimulating.

評分新京報-書評 這病癥並非災難! 撰文|於是 ·名· 以典型病人之名命名絕癥,比用天文學傢之名命名彗星更觸目驚心。 話說梅爾維爾寫完《白鯨》後,多年不得誌,1853年齣過短篇小說集《抄寫員巴托比》,這個怪人總是說“不”。就像現實生活中的霍桑。 本書的敘述者是便是一位“...
評分 評分即使整本書都在堆砌為什麼不寫的各種理由,也掩飾不住作者蓬勃的創作欲。 正因為他讀他寫,所以纔會遇到無論如何也寫不下去的巴托比時刻。相信每一個博覽群書的作者都會掉入抄寫員的邏輯陷阱。 巴托比是一種二十一世紀纔會得的病,歌德不會得,莊子不會得,隻有我們這些踩踏...
