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.

這是一本沒有文本的書,是一本日記形式的腳注。在“不”的迷宮裏,“我”天馬行空地縱覽文學史上放棄寫作的作傢或是以其為題材的作品。文本中既有知名作傢的八卦紀事,也不乏杜撰齣的確有真人原型的作傢故事。在真實與虛構的相互交織中,展開一場“寫”與“不寫”間的...
評分為期六天的實習(組團旅遊)將在今日宣告結束,正好,我也在今天讀完瞭這個關於“我不”的故事,與我不同的是它們是發生在作傢的身上。到瞭這裏,我發現我終究還是逃不開這個原始而野蠻的睏惑;這是一種看起來有點自鳴得意的試探,也許還是一個自鳴無聊的舉動。我想,假如有一...
評分是怎樣的勇氣,讓恩裏剋•比爾•馬塔斯有勇氣來替如此多的作者發聲,嚮並不總是睿智的讀者們錶白他們內心的“睏惑、危險、失敗”呢?要知道,這可不是博爾赫斯追求貝爾特麗斯的童話故事——讀者們絕非都是敏感又善良的好女孩,會在看透你的寂寞與黑暗後,還會去抱緊飢渴的...
評分馬塔斯在書裏麵闡釋瞭無數作傢的“騙局”,寫瞭無數他們的“藉口”,久而久之讓我越看越迷糊,我開始懷疑他寫的所有東西是不是也是他設置的一個“騙局”。更有甚者,我完全不相信德蘭給他的信,始終覺得那就是他自己寫給自己的,一如之前他所做的那樣。 事實證明編者最後確實在...

整理書架的時候翻到的,外封都沒有瞭,裏麵是藍色的小hardcover,都忘記是何時買的瞭。恩裏剋·維拉-馬塔斯的這本書英譯者是Jonathan Dunne,光從譯文來看,非常舒服。
評分“The use of language simply for effect paradoxically constitutes an immoral act. Del Giudice's search is ethical precisely be/c he struggles to create new forms. The writer who attempts to push back the frontiers of what is human may fail.” // 不推薦35歲以下有文學抱負的青年閱讀。
