Pulitzer Prize-winner Junot Díaz’s first book, Drown, established him as a major new writer with “the dispassionate eye of a journalist and the tongue of a poet” (Newsweek). His first novel, The Brief Wondrous Life of Oscar Wao, was named #1 Fiction Book of the Year” by Time magazine and spent more than 100 weeks on the New York Times bestseller list, establishing itself – with more than a million copies in print – as a modern classic. In addition to the Pulitzer, Díaz has won a host of major awards and prizes, including the National Book Critic’s Circle Award, the PEN/Malamud Award, the PEN/O. Henry Prize, the Dayton Literary Peace Prize, and the Anisfield-Wolf Award.
Now Díaz turns his remarkable talent to the haunting, impossible power of love – obsessive love, illicit love, fading love, maternal love. On a beach in the Dominican Republic, a doomed relationship flounders. In the heat of a hospital laundry room in New Jersey, a woman does her lover’s washing and thinks about his wife. In Boston, a man buys his love child, his only son, a first baseball bat and glove. At the heart of these stories is the irrepressible, irresistible Yunior, a young hardhead whose longing for love is equaled only by his recklessness--and by the extraordinary women he loves and loses: artistic Alma; the aging Miss Lora; Magdalena, who thinks all Dominican men are cheaters; and the love of his life, whose heartbreak ultimately becomes his own. In prose that is endlessly energetic, inventive, tender, and funny, the stories in the New York Times-Bestselling This Is How You Lose Her lay bare the infinite longing and inevitable weakness of the human heart. They remind us that passion always triumphs over experience, and that “the half-life of love is forever.”
Junot Díaz was born in the Dominican Republic and raised in New Jersey. He is the author of the critically acclaimed Drown; The Brief Wondrous Life of Oscar Wao, which won the 2008 Pulitzer Prize and the National Book Critics Circle Award; and This Is How You Lose Her, a New York Times bestseller and National Book Award finalist. He is the recipient of a MacArthur “Genius” Fellowship, PEN/Malamud Award, Dayton Literary Peace Prize, Guggenheim Fellowship, and PEN/O. Henry Award. A graduate of Rutgers College, Díaz is currently the fiction editor at Boston Review and the Rudge and Nancy Allen Professor of Writing at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology.

课上要求写书评,写完顺手贴上来了。:) When I was trying to find a way to summarize “This is how you lose her”, it feels as if I am trying to distill the ocean into a rain drop. I found myself slammed by the rich reality in the book that depicts a world ...
评分这本书一定会让为写论文抓耳挠腮的文学系学生欢呼雀跃。天哪!拉丁裔美国人的生活——身份认同和种族多元化一定是绝佳话题。贫民窟背景——请搬来马克思主义和社会批判的大炮。作者是个童年坎坷的MIT教授的——这不是典型的Rags to riches的美国梦么,请开动文化研究和新历...
评分2013第一本书,开始用豆瓣做记录。延续2012年最后一本Junot Diaz的精彩到停不下来的小说,这本只是悲,悲到至极。看到这本书,在我把JD的podcast听了十几遍以后,有些迷恋,对他涉及的内容有点失望:为什么要写男人的不忠,是因为自己是cheater,或他只是害怕受到伤害?用他自...
评分Junot Díaz的名字应当怎么读? 之前《沉溺》一书, https://book.douban.com/subject/5403795/ 将他的名字译为胡诺特,这是根据西班牙语发音。 照西班牙语发音,“J”读作“X”(苏格兰英语Loch里的ch,和德语Bach的ch,音似“喝”),“z”读作英语thank里的th。那么应当是...
评分有的时候,我们能够拥有的,就只有一个开头而已。 这本二百来页的集子不止于爱情,迪亚斯用短篇串联、戏谑的笔法展现出了多米尼加移民一代的掠影:浓烈的性、亲人间的分离与死亡、拉美有色人种的欢笑与泪水。上次看迪亚斯是《奥斯卡·瓦奥短暂而奇妙的一生》,迪亚斯的多米尼加...
