'The Corrections' is one of five classic Fourth Estate books to be released as numbered, collectable editions to mark the 25th anniversary. The books will be beautifully produced hardbacks, limited to 2000 copies each, with jackets designed by some of the finest artists at work today. The Lamberts -- Enid and Alfred and their three grown-up children -- are a troubled family living in a troubled age. Alfred is ill and as his condition worsens the whole family must face the failures, secrets and long-buried hurts that haunt them if they are to make the corrections that each desperately needs. Stretching from the Midwest in the mid-century to Wall Street and Eastern Europe in the age of globalised greed, The Corrections brings an old-time America of freight trains and civic duty into wild collision with the era of home surveillance, hands-off parenting, do-it-yourself mental healthcare, and New Economy millionaires. It announces Jonathan Franzen as one of the most brilliant interpreters of American society and the American soul.
乔纳森•弗兰岑(1959— )
Jonathan Franzen
美国当代最有活力、最出色的小说家之一,十年来唯一登上美国《时代》封面的作家。代表作有小说《纠正》(2001)、《自由》(2010),散文集《更远》(2012)等。
小说《纠正》2001年获得美国全国图书奖、美国全国书评家协会奖提名和普利策小说奖提名,2002年获得英国最古老、最具声望的文学奖詹姆斯•泰特•布莱克奖,奠定了弗兰岑英语文学界的大师地位。
近期读的书中,除了乔纳森•弗兰岑的《纠正》外,还有约翰•厄普代克的“兔子四部曲”。阅读几乎是同时进行的,但是从没想过这两位几乎分属于两代人的美国作家之间会产生神秘的联系。直到阅读《纠正》的过程中,我才偶尔发现乔纳森用他一贯略有讽刺的口吻把厄普代克幽默了...
评分因为马上要毕业了,对于未来感到恐惧,所以喜欢看这种大家一起搞砸自己的人生的小说。 Chipper 出国的那段太迷幻了,读起来有点割裂和难受。 大哥的情节,一个拥有完美生活的中年男人慢慢失心疯掉,屈辱地埋没在父辈的阴影中。 正在读 Alfred 的这一段,好像在解释说一切错误都...
评分【读品】罗豫/文 崇尚标新立异的年代,没有底气的作家恐怕还不敢老老实实写小说。美国作家乔纳森·弗兰岑的《纠正》一书,如果不是这个奖那个奖拿了一大堆,商业宣传上会相当缺乏“卖点”:主角是一个再平常不过的美国家庭,随便扔块石头到大洋彼岸就能砸到这么一家子。“人生...
评分这是一本据说在美国影响颇大的一本小说,在很多电影电视中都能看到它是主人公的最爱。但整整一年中,我把这本书拿起又放下,阅读就是无法持续。认真反思,总的一条,翻译太不好,生硬不说,还语义不清,根本不知所云!书的版面设计也很差,一眼看过去,文字稀稀拉拉就像没有几...
