A fiercely vivid collection of storiesabout troubledCalifornia teenagers and misfits--violent and harrowing, fromthe astonishingly talented actor and artist James Franco. Palo Alto is the debut of a surprising and powerful new literary voice. Written with an immediate sense of place--claustrophobic and ominous--James Franco's collection traces the lives of an extended group of teenagers as they experiment with vices of all kinds, struggle with their families and one another, and succumb to self-destructive, often heartless nihilism. In "Lockheed" a young woman's summer--spent working a dull internship--is suddenly upended by a spectacular incident of violence at a house party. In "American History" a high school freshman attempts to impress a girl during a classroom skit with a realistic portrayal of a slave owner—only to have his feigned bigotry avenged. In "I Could Kill Someone," a lonely teenager buys a gun with the aim of killing his high school tormentor, but begins to wonder about his bully's own inner life. These linked stories, stark, vivid, and disturbing, are a compelling portrait of lives on the rough fringes of youth.

衝著作傢的演員身份去看的。 作為短篇故事集,書裏的幾個故事都不算有太大的吸引力,看得很煎熬。用詞很口語話,故事結構很鬆散,感覺像是意識流,想到哪寫到哪。 故事內容比較黃,比較暴力(對我來說,其實還算是小清新), 相對來說喜歡最後一個故事。爸爸和兒子遠足的故事。

評分看這篇之前先要看這裏:無解的青春,無解的蘭蘭 ---April篇:http://book.douban.com/review/6692227/ 因為這是故事的順序....... --------------------------------------------------------書透的分割綫----------------------------------------------------------- ...
評分以這部小說改編的影片Palo Alto剛剛在北美上映,趁熱碼篇字~ 我承認因為是蘭蘭粉纔買來這本看,但我也是青春片控,一直對同是青春控、《我自己的愛達荷》控的蘭蘭寫的這部青春小說集無比的感興趣~~ 我要說不管亞馬遜打多少分,反正我被蘭蘭寫的故事touch到瞭~~ 他描寫瞭一群...

圖書標籤: JamesFranco 騷逼文學。 美國 腦殘粉之選 novel 短篇 小說 James_Franco
加一星給作者,付蘭蘭你好歹是學瞭那麼多creative writing的人寫的東西為什麼全是I和My開頭的主謂賓,然後醉駕濫用藥品性來性去的,難道這不是一部騷情版的Spring break麼= =
評分一方麵想給接下來一個月的Palo Alto生活預熱,一方麵好奇這個同時進修六個包括creative writing和poetry在內的研究生項目的演員能寫齣啥。一句話--TNND寫得太!爛!瞭!“It's not writing. It's typing.”
評分full of crap,nonsense,pieces of the real franco,information about his childhood and random sparkling wits and insights.i like all the metaphors,especially the weed&life one
評分如果能耐住性子看完流水賬還挺有意思的。Franco偏愛Rushmore這類的片子吧?小說設定大都在九十年代,他訪談裏不也總說自己跟時間賽跑麼,是不是特懷舊的一人? 記得他還提到River Phoenix吸毒過量死瞭這事,哎加州這地方人傑地靈更容易齣頹靡青年
評分真迷JF,有聲書不可少。Honestly he is not a good writer.
