Chuyện Không Kể Lúc Nửa Đêm - Ngôi Nhà Ma Trên Vùng Biển Vắng Thư viện Sách hướng dẫn

Sách được viết bởi Bởi: Hà Vi

This is Hardy and it is bleak. There's almost a sick pleasure one can derive from watching so attractive a character as the large-hearted, brilliant and dedicated Jude struck over and over by the sledgehammers, or perhaps whips, of life, society, women, and senseless tragedy - but, as with most S&M, the pleasure fades as the audience realizes the point is not the attractiveness of the character in the lead role, but the amount of pain the secondary characters can inflict on him or her. Is this a novel of rage against society for crushing those it should embrace? Is it a tirade against the Judes of this world for allowing themselves to remain, save perhaps in their final moments, ignorant of the courage that can be derived from a life of conviction? Did Hardy write this on a whim, trying to outdo the ending of King Lear? Maybe. Maybe. But whatever theory I can come up with pales against the monumental pain that accumulates on the shoulders of the protagonists. This book gets three stars because I can't bring myself to say I like it. I could have gone my life without reading it - I don't need any more reminders of how much and how deeply it can suck to be an idealist in this modern age. But there's some power here, in Jude, even if it is too timid to really show itself. That sets it apart from the other twos and threes on my list, like the vapid fiction of Paul Auster, and makes it worth a reading if one wants to see if one can scale the monument.
