内容简介 · · · · · ·
A small, exclusive college in upstate New York is nestled along the frozen shores of Lake Mohiga . . . and directly across from a maximum-security prison. The two institutions manage to coexist peacefully, until 10,000 prisoners break out and head directly for the college. "Sharp-toothed satire . . . absurd humor".--San Francisco Chronicle.

库尔特·冯内古特 作者
作者简介 · · · · · ·
[美] 库尔特·冯内古特(Kurt Vonnegut,1922—2007)
美国后现代主义文学大师,黑色幽默文学的代表人物,与马克·吐温并称。以喜剧形式表现悲剧内容,在灾难、荒诞、绝望面前发出笑声。这种“黑色幽默”风格始终是冯内古特小说创作的重要特质。其代表作《五号屠宰场》《时震》抓住了他处身时代的情绪,并激发了一代人的想象。
冯内古特是出生在美国的犹太人,1940年考取康奈尔大学,主修化学。1944年珍珠港事件爆发,主张反战的他志愿参军,远赴欧洲战场。1945年遭德军俘虏,被囚禁在德累斯顿战俘营。冯内古特的文学创作,不少灵感正是来自于在战俘营的经历。战后冯内古特在芝加哥大学获得人类学硕士学位,后在哈佛大学任教。他从50年代起开始发表短篇小说,60年代起开始出版长篇。晚年的冯内古特在曼哈顿和纽约长岛的田园里颐养天年。2007 年3月在家中楼梯上不慎摔...

暴力、禁忌和僭越的多重奏
这篇书评可能有关键情节透露
很不巧的,两周前刚看完巴塔耶的《色情》,主题正是暴力、禁忌和僭越。 我认为,人作为有死、封闭和欲望之动物,呈现为四个基本的属性。 有死,是说作为个体之人必有其出生和死亡,无人能够永存。封闭性在肉体的方面和有死相结合,使得一个人的肉体不同于、不可替换于任何另一... (展开)让幽默扎透,带你游遍千疮百孔

这本较晚成书的作品终于探讨越战、LGBT、种族问题、阶级和教育、全球化甚至环境问题这些比较“现代”的议题了。虽然还是有很多家族史的影子但是不仅限于家族悲剧了。以及冯内古特是我见过的唯一不会高估未来科技发展水平的科幻作家,不过他大大高估了美国衰败的速度。。。最后剧透一下,男主杀/睡了50.5个人,DON'T PANIC

The ever-so-Vonnegutian Vonnegut. DON'T PANIC at the very end of the book. Just because some of us can read and write and do a little math, that doesn't mean we can conquer the universe.Bombastic, but... The ever-so-Vonnegutian Vonnegut. DON'T PANIC at the very end of the book. Just because some of us can read and write and do a little math, that doesn't mean we can conquer the universe.Bombastic, but always the very truth. Chinese Japanese and Vietnam everywhere in this book. Pity that I haven't found anything about Kilgore Trout. (展开)

"Just because some of us can read and write and do a little math, that doesn't mean we deserve to conquer the Universe." 幽默无疑是刺向人性等深刻话题最锋利的刀刃。

Don't let the first part fool you, this is a great book. And the second part will explain the ramble in the first part. It's a little depressing to read as well, as human nature and war always are, so... Don't let the first part fool you, this is a great book. And the second part will explain the ramble in the first part. It's a little depressing to read as well, as human nature and war always are, so be prepared. We learned to play games, both ours and others, when we were kids. And as we grew up, the games just got bigger and bigger. (展开)
