#跳蛙看点书# [星辰时刻] 看之前就预料到自己看不懂,看完果然不太懂,这篇克拉丽斯生命最后的小说似乎没有开头,没有高潮,只有讲述者叙说这惨淡的现实,这是一种自述?对自己生平的投影?第一次如此着迷于一篇意识流短文,女孩玛卡贝娅不为自己而活却也不知为何而活,单薄...
评分体验到同一种感受,描述如此不同 ——同出一穴的联想。 克拉丽丝:有时,就在办公室,感恩会把她攫获。这时她会来到卫生间,一个人独处,她站着,微笑着,直到一切过去。 (几近抽象的生命) 纳博科夫:看着我自己的眼睛,我发现了仅仅是寻常那个自我的渣滓,一个蒸发后的本体的...
评分 评分从未见过哪个女性作家这么意识流而残忍地书写现实人生,克拉丽丝·李斯佩克朵的写作笔触是非常风格独特的。作为一个女性,也许和她生活的国境和时代有关,她可没有《微妙》那般的碎碎欢悦小清新,也不会有《天黑前的夏天》那般病态呓语。 如果你不带着沉静和空白的心去读,你很...

The Hour of the Star, Clarice Lispector’s consummate final novel, may well be her masterpiece. Narrated by the cosmopolitan Rodrigo S.M., this brief, strange, and haunting tale is the story of Macabéa, one of life’s unfortunates. Living in the slums of Rio and eking out a poor living as a typist, Macabéa loves movies, Coca-Cola, and her rat of a boyfriend; she would like to be like Marilyn Monroe, but she is ugly, underfed, sickly, and unloved. Rodrigo recoils from her wretchedness, and yet he cannot avoid the realization that for all her outward misery, Macabéa is inwardly free. She doesn’t seem to know how unhappy she should be. As Macabéa heads toward her absurd death, Lispector employs her pathetic heroine against her urbane, empty narrator—edge of despair to edge of despair—and, working them like a pair of scissors, she cuts away the reader’s preconceived notions about poverty, identity, love, and the art of fiction. In her last book she takes readers close to the true mystery of life and leaves us deep in Lispector territory indeed.
lispector临终前的一本,the most empathetic clarice。Still the death, the vomiting, the bodiliness,但是都更温柔。could have ended a little bit earlier - “you accept anything because you‘ve kissed the wall.”
评分很意识流,到最后看得不细致,有点飘忽,竟然还看哭了。
评分作者遣词用句,实在有趣。故事近乎为零,所以才能在叙事上玩出如此花样吧。
评分有Plath的味道,比她再刻薄自信一些
