[日] 三岛由纪夫 translator: 唐月梅 publishing house: 上海译文出版社 2009 - 1
三岛由纪夫重要代表作,发表于1956年,长篇小说。 《金阁寺》取材于1950年金阁寺僧徒林养贤放火烧掉金阁寺的真实事件。据林养贤说他的犯罪动机是对金阁寺的美的嫉妒。《金阁寺》发表后大受好评,获第八届读卖文学奖。 三岛要在《金阁寺》中描述这种对传统既爱又憎的奇妙心态,这在他看来似乎用一般的真善美方程式是不可能完成的,加上他一向追求倒错美学,于是将金阁寺僧徒的思想和行为作艺术上的提升。他要在美与丑、爱与憎的紧张对立中创造“死与颓废”的美,构筑自己独特的美学世界。总之,三岛由纪夫驱笔写《金阁寺》,就是以金阁与人生相比喻,写美与人生、艺术与人生的悲剧性的关系。 《金阁寺》取材于1950年金阁寺僧徒林养贤放火烧掉金阁寺的真实事件。据林养贤说他的犯罪动机是对金阁寺的美的嫉妒。

初中时就买了这本书,曾三次拿起,又每每放下,从未读完过,感觉融入不进作者的世界,也感受不到所谓金阁的美。去荷兰留学时与一同学同住,其读书不多,但极爱这本《金阁寺》,称反反复复读了3、4遍。与之相处的经历很是不快,回来后欲分析其精神世界和性格特质的形成而读此书。正如一篇书评所说,三岛在这本书里体现的观念扭曲而极端,而这种极端于人于己都很危险。

Michael Wolff publishing house: Macmillan USA 2018 - 1 other title: Fire and Fury: Inside the Trump White House
With extraordinary access to the West Wing, Michael Wolff reveals what happened behind-the-scenes in the first nine months of the most controversial presidency of our time in Fire and Fury: Inside the Trump White House . Since Donald Trump was sworn in as the 45th President of the United States, the country―and the world―has witnessed a stormy, outrageous, and absolutely mesmerizing presidential term that reflects the volatility and fierceness of the man elected Commander-in-Chief. This riveting and explosive account of Trump’s administration provides a wealth of new details about the chaos in the Oval Office, including: -- What President Trump’s staff really thinks of him -- What inspired Trump to claim he was wire-tapped by President Obama -- Why FBI director James Comey was really fired -- Why chief strategist Steve Bannon and Trump’s son-in-law Jared Kushner couldn’t be in the same room -- Who is really directing the Trump administration’s strategy in the wake of Bannon’s firing -- What the secret to communicating with Trump is -- What the Trump administration has in common with the movie The Producers Never before in history has a presidency so divided the American people. Brilliantly reported and astoundingly fresh, Fire and Fury shows us how and why Donald Trump has become the king of discord and disunion.

不是因为觉得作者在编故事所以打了低分,而是觉得作者没在编故事,事实就是白宫里有一个奇怪的总统和一帮斗来斗去其乐无穷的手下,看他们吵吵闹闹的日常让我自己也要变得虚荣浮夸争强好胜本来就胸小现在更要无脑了。因此看到一半弃了。

很平淡,日本人特有的风味。
总结来看:想要避免无缘死,一定要结婚、生孩子、有正式稳定的工作而不是打短工、就算上了年纪也有在乎你关心你的人。想到张爱玲好像也是去世后过了好几天才被发现。无缘死什么的,远没有无缘生那么可怕。对于这些与周围无缘的人而言,死亡很可能反倒是解脱。
话再说回来,孤零零地死去,说不定最得死神的欢心。

石黑一雄 publishing house: Knopf 2005 - 4 other title: Never Let Me Go
From the acclaimed author of The Remains of the Day and When We Were Orphans, a moving new novel that subtly reimagines our world and time in a haunting story of friendship and love. As a child, Kathy–now thirty-one years old–lived at Hailsham, a private school in the scenic English countryside where the children were sheltered from the outside world, brought up to believe that they were special and that their well-being was crucial not only for themselves but for the society they would eventually enter. Kathy had long ago put this idyllic past behind her, but when two of her Hailsham friends come back into her life, she stops resisting the pull of memory. And so, as her friendship with Ruth is rekindled, and as the feelings that long ago fueled her adolescent crush on Tommy begin to deepen into love, Kathy recalls their years at Hailsham. She describes happy scenes of boys and girls growing up together, unperturbed–even comforted–by their isolation. But she describes other scenes as well: of discord and misunderstanding that hint at a dark secret behind Hailsham’s nurturing facade. With the dawning clarity of hindsight, the three friends are compelled to face the truth about their childhood–and about their lives now. A tale of deceptive simplicity, Never Let Me Go slowly reveals an extraordinary emotional depth and resonance–and takes its place among Kazuo Ishiguro’s finest work.
