Những Gặp Gỡ Không Ngờ (Tập Truyện Ngắn) Thư viện Sách hướng dẫn

Sách được viết bởi Bởi: Lê Minh Hà

Enrique Vila-Mata takes as his subject the dark art of the No, and has written in this quirky novel a history of authorial refusal. In other words, those authors who have joined Melville's Bartleby in saying, "I would prefer not to." Vila-Matas writes, "For some time now I have been investigating the frequent examples of Bartleby's syndrome in literature, for some time I have studied the illness, the disease, endemic to contemporary letters,the negative impulse or attraction towards nothingness that means that certain creators, while possessing a very demanding literary conscience (or perhaps precisely because of this), never manage to write: either they write one or two books and then stop altogether or, working on a project, seemingly without problems, one day they become literally paralysed for good." Although Bartleby and Hawthorne's Wakefield are seen as precursors, Vila-Matas locates the 20th century art of the No first in Hugo von Hoffmansthal's Letter from Lord Chandos: " 'My case, in short, is this: I have completely lost the ability to think or speak coherently about anything,' which means that the author of the letter abandons the vocation or profession of a writer because no word seems to him to express objective reality." This syndrome is traced across the entire century, and Vila-Matas explores in humorous but searching vignettes the "land of unhappy sorcerers who renounce the deceptive magic of a few, well-chosen words in one or two books" in favor of silence. The book is brisk, entertaining, but also vaguely disturbing, for the author lays open the core of negation that haunts authors to this day.

Before anyone asks, I don't have HBO and so haven't seen True Blood, although I'd like to. Still, something tells me I may be disappointed at seeing Sookie's adventures translated to the small screen, as the great appeal of the series for me has always been Sookie's voice. She is one of my favorite heroines in paranormal fiction, and I just love the way she looks at the world, which is why even my less favorite installments of the series get three stars and keep me reading. In fact, Sookie retains her appeal for me even when she is falling into the "every supernatural creature in the universe wants me" trap that a lot of paranormal heroines seem to; from the first book in the series, she has always been refreshingly down to earth despite her psychic abilities, and she remains so here. In the past, I might have been tempted to put Sookie's adventures firmly on the urban fantasy side of the the urban fantasy/paranormal romance divide (probably for the sake of my ego more than anything else), but I am becoming less sure. I just don't like Quinn, Sookie's newest love interest, and I tend to like the books he's in less than the others. Romance, if not of the HEA variety, does feature strongly in the series, if the love interest alone can have such an effect on my enjoyment. I'm still less interested in learning who Sookie ends up with than whence her powers derive.

How does one go until age 28 before reading this? I have no idea--but I was delighted WAY beyond expectation and learned so much when I read this and taught it to my students. Tom Sawyer was Twain's children’s "adult" book with no real social message; Huck Finn was his adult "children's" book, therefore--I enjoyed it much more than Tom Sawyer. Rich with social awareness, it was fascinating (especially, and it's a must) to read the Norton Critical Edition of the book which highlighted how Twain lost his train of thought for years and years. It also highlights some deleted chapters from the original manuscript--which poses for a very thought-provoking discussion. It's easier if you read it from wikipedia--but it's all the stuff I learned and love!! “Twain initially conceived of the work as a companion to The Adventures of Tom Sawyer that would follow Huck Finn through adulthood. Beginning with a chapter he had deleted from the earlier novel, Twain began work on a manuscript he originally titled Huckleberry Finn's Autobiography. Twain worked on the manuscript off and on for the next several years, ultimately abandoning his original plan of following Huck's development into adulthood. He appeared to have lost interest in the manuscript while it was in progress, and set it aside for several years. After making a trip down the Mississippi, Twain returned to his work on the novel. Upon completion, the novel's title closely paralleled its predecessor's: "Adventures of Huckleberry Finn (Tom Sawyer's Comrade)" [1]” It is commonly said that the beginning and ending of the book, the parts in which Tom Sawyer appears as a character, detract from its overall impact. Others feel Tom serves to start the story off and to bring it to a conclusion, and that Tom's ridiculous schemes have the paradoxical effect of providing a framework of 'reality' around the mythical river voyage. Much of the boyhood innocence and romantic depictions of nature occur in the first sixteen chapters and the last five, while the middle of the story shows the harsh realities of antebellum society.”
