理想国邀请我翻译《上帝之子》的契机是我当时恰好在英文期刊上发表了一篇关于这部小说的论文,我的师弟、《血色子午线》的优秀译者冯伟博士看到了这篇论文,也知道理想国正在计划出版麦卡锡中文版全集,便向出版社推荐了我,在此对他表示感谢,毕竟能够翻译自己研究作家的作品...
评分以为无疾而终了。看预告很激动,麦卡锡的书全翻译了。可是几年来总是那两本,不免灰心。是不是出版社的牌子太差。关键是译文的《老无所依》炒到什么价位了。 美国西部巴尔的摩,老牛仔Moss(Josh Brolin 饰)在猎杀羚羊时发现几具尸体,几包海洛因和200万现金。Moss决定将毒品...

By the author of the critically acclaimed "Border Trilogy", "Child of God" is a taut, chilling novel that plumbs the depths of human degradation. Lester Ballard, a violent, solitary and introverted young backwoodsman dispossessed on his ancestral land, is released from jail and allowed to haunt the hill country of East Tennessee, preying on the population with his strange lusts. McCarthy transforms commonplace brushes with humanity - in homesteads, stores and in the woods - into stunning scenes of the comic and the grotesque, and as the story hurtles toward its unforgettable conclusion, depicts the most sordid aspects of life with dignity, humour, and characteristic lyrical brilliance. 'Demands its reader's attention from the opening sentence' - "Newsweek". 'A reading experience so impressive, so 'new', so clearly well made that it seems almost to defy the easy aesthetic categories ...Accomplished in rare, spare, precise yet poetic prose' - "New Republic". 'His prose, unfailingly beautiful and exact, carries us into a dreamworld of astonishing and violent revelation. It is a frightening, entrancing world, which we must finally recognize as our own' - Tobias Wolff. 'McCarthy is a powerful and talented writer, able to elicit compassion for his protagonist however terrible his action' - "Sunday Times".
“See him. You could say that he's sustained by his fellow men, like you. Has peopled the shore with them calling to him. A race that gives suck to the maimed and the crazed, that wants their wrong blood in its history and will have it. But they want this man's life. He has heard them in the night seeking him with lanterns and cries of execration. ”
评分读过McCarthy的好几本书,才开始能欣赏英文版。McCarthy的长句多得让人想死,但却比短句更冷峻,更抽象。罪恶、暴力、孤独的元素仍然贯穿全篇,而戏剧落幕无外是几句简单的祷文,几颗耀眼的车灯。

评分罪恶无处不在,什么造成的?
