Imaginary conversations between Marco Polo and his host, the Chinese ruler Kublai Khan, conjure up cities of magical times. “Of all tasks, describing the contents of a book is the most difficult and in the case of a marvelous invention like Invisible Cities, perfectly irrelevant” (Gore Vidal). Translated by William Weaver. A Helen and Kurt Wolff Book
One of the world's best storytellers, Italo Calvino (Invisible Cities) pinpoints for future generations the universal values for literature. Here are his works, methods, intentions, and hopes.
Italo Calvino was a writer and journalist. Italo Calvino is the author of If on a Winter’s Night a Traveller, Numbers in the Dark and Other Stories, Difficult Loves, Marcovaldo: The Seasons in the City, Why Read the Classics?, The Queen’s Necklace, Under the Jaguar Sun, Italian Folktales, The Path to the Spiders’ Nests, The Literature Machine, The Castle of Crossed Destinies, and Our Ancestors.
Calvino was born in Cuba in the year 1923, but was raised in San Remo, Italy, where the inspiration for his various works were born. He received a degree in literature in 1947 from the University of Turin. In the later years, Calvino developed a passion for teaching and films, and travelled widely to fulfill these pursuits. In the year 1985, he died of brain hemorrhage. He won several awards during his lifetime, including the World Fantasy Award, Riccione Prize, Bagutta Prize, Viareggio Prize, Saint-Vincent Prize, International Charles Veillon Prize, and the Legion of Honour.
第一次读此书时,几乎把它当成了寓言或者古代城市的散文诗,那时我20出头;30岁上再读,是把它当成了城市类型学和城市史;40岁时,读罢了卡尔维诺近乎传记般的《通往家乡的路》,读懂了卡尔维诺的人生观,读懂了他对意大利文化的使命感,更愿意把这本书当成他个人的旅行手记。
评分Just like how this book was written - over time, with random writings on cities that inspire - it should be read in the same way, over time, pick a random piece and savour it fully. Don't rush through this little book of literary gems, full of imagination, insight and irony, and you'll discover invisible territories you never knew existed.

评分令人惊奇的、连绵不绝的想象;语言的模糊、变幻以及无穷的可能性
我一直认为自己骨子里不属于城市。所以可以想象当那天拿到那套普里什文文集时,我有多激动。一大摞厚厚的泛黄的书,一看就知道经历了在书店积满灰尘后又重返库房的命运。我始终觉得,在年幼时候我曾经或等老了我将要,坐在长满蒲公英和苍耳的山坡上读《鸟儿不惊的地方》或《大...
评分人若是在路上行走了很长的时间,自然就会期望到达城市。 当我们的空间在不断的腾挪转换,总有一些元素是永恒不变的:旅店、机场、车站、港口……这些元素的代名词就是“驿站”。 曾经有一个男生问我:“half way(虎跳峡里的中途客栈)好玩吗?” 我半晌说不出话来,也许他...
评分一直最喜欢诗歌,为着它唯美的意境,但诗歌的缺点是太短了,承载不了太多。放佛才华横溢的浪子,最好的命运就是在年轻时死去,他所有的梦想与激情最好刹那幻灭如烟火,否则的话继续下去就没什么看头了。 在我意外的,《看不见的城市》,却是一部长诗。——抱歉我没有把那些...
评分所有的城市都是虚构的,我给它们每一个都起了一个女人的名字…… 刚拿到这本书时读了三分之一,再拿起来时已是半年以后。还是从第一页读起。这次为了与上一次阅读有所区别,我边读边记了笔记。那是一篇令人发笑的读书笔记,因为我想不会有人像我一样把所有这些虚构的城市认认...
