Set in the long-lost City of Victoria (a fictional world similar to Hong Kong), Atlas is written from the unified perspective of future archaeologists struggling to rebuild a thrilling metropolis. Divided into four sections--"Theory," "The City," "Streets," and "Signs"--the novel reimagines Victoria through maps and other historical documents and artifacts, mixing real-world scenarios with purely imaginary people and events while incorporating anecdotes and actual and fictional social commentary and critique.
Much like the quasi-fictional adventures in map-reading and remapping explored by Paul Auster, Jorge Luis Borges, and Italo Calvino, Dung Kai-cheung's novel challenges the representation of place and history and the limits of technical and scientific media in reconstructing a history. It best exemplifies the author's versatility and experimentation, along with China's rapidly evolving literary culture, by blending fiction, nonfiction, and poetry in a story about succeeding and failing to recapture the things we lose. Playing with a variety of styles and subjects, Dung Kai-cheung inventively engages with the fate of Hong Kong since its British "handover" in 1997, which officially marked the end of colonial rule and the beginning of an uncharted future.
Dung Kai-cheung was born in Hong Kong in 1967 and received his B.A. and M. Phil. in comparative literature from the University of Hong Kong. He teaches part-time in several Hong Kong universities and writes novels and short stories in Chinese. His major fictional works include The Age of Apprenticeship, Histories of Time, Works and Creations, Paixões Diagonais, P. E. Period, The Thousand and Second Night, The Exercise Book, A Brief History of the Silverfish, The Writing Adventure of Bui Bui, The Catalog, Visible Cities, The Rose of the Name, The Double Body, Androgyny: Evolution of a Nonexistent Species, The Workbook, My Old School in Memory, and The Album.
Anders Hansson is chief editor of publications at the Macau Ricci Institute and the author of Chinese Outcasts: Discrimination and Emancipation in Late Imperial China. He studied Chinese at the University of Stockholm and later in Hong Kong and holds an M.A. degree from the School of Oriental and African Studies in London and a Ph.D. in history and East Asian languages from Harvard University.
Bonnie S. McDougall is visiting professor of Chinese at the University of Sydney and professor emeritus at the University of Edinburgh. She has also taught at Harvard University, the University of Oslo, the Chinese University of Hong Kong, and the City University of Hong Kong. She has translated works by Bei Dao, Ah Cheng, Chen Kaige, Mao Zedong, and Leung Ping-kwan, among others. Her recent books include Translation Zones in Modern China: Authoritarian Command Versus Gift Exchange and Fictional Authors, Imaginary Audiences: Modern Chinese Literature in the Twentieth Century.

如何呈现一座城市的面貌?最平常的方式,是刻画它的历史、人口、经济、饮食,等等。《地图集》则用地图研究的方式,去描绘城市的街道、符号与记忆。这本书有许多的地图学理论,但却并不严肃,因为它原是一本不像小说的小说,在看似真实刻板的考据中,潜藏虚构与梦幻。例如,诗...
评分正如作者所言,小说家的想象和真实的重叠,大抵是最糟糕的事情。 伪装的地理勘探自然科学的按图索骥法。 作为建筑系来看,好奇的是建造和史料记载和符号图例的转换关系。可是阅读的过程中画面感很有限,总是点到即止,大概是作者吝于细节的细致叙述吧。 志怪故事...

评分董启章《地图集》的副标题为“一个想像的城市的考古学”,“想像”与“考古”这相悖的二词的并置,可见作者借小说的笔法有意糅合虚幻与现实。书中虽然以V城为描述对象,实际指代的却是香港,两者在互为镜像的关系中实现了“城市”的建构与解构。第一章理论篇以词条的形式铺垫了...
