A provocative novel set in the near future, about what happens when the whole world falls apart.
After a flu pandemic has killed large numbers of people worldwide, the United States has grown increasingly anarchic. Large numbers of children are stranded in orphanages, and systems we take for granted are fraying at the seams. When orphaned Cole Vining finds refuge with an evangelical pastor and his young wife in a small Indiana town, he knows he is one of the lucky ones. Sheltered Salvation City has been spared much of the devastation of the outside world.
But it's a starkly different community from the one Cole has known, and he struggles with what this changed world means for him. As those around him become increasingly fixated on their vision of utopia - so different from his own parents' dreams - Cole begins to imagine a new and different future for himself.
Written in Sigrid Nunez's deceptively simple style, Salvation City is a story of love, betrayal, and forgiveness, weaving the deeply affecting story of a young boy's transformation with a profound meditation on the true meaning of salvation.
2018年Sigrid Nunez获得美国国家图书奖。当时决定买本Salvation City(2010年出版)读读看。末世、灾难、乌托邦主题,读完并不觉得新鲜。2020年7月的今天出门随手带本书,翻看着惊讶着感叹着:流感病毒、口罩、关闭学校、隔离……小说第一部分就是现在啊。小说总体讲述了13岁的Cole在末世之时,思想和信仰如何得到成长和确立,立意四平八稳,文字无奇,叙述略微拖沓。再结合当下,末日灾难真正来临时,告诉人们有一个现成的乌托邦,是多么无力。
