一九四七年生於台灣苗栗,中興大學農經系畢業,日本千葉大學深造。回國從事廣告企畫撰文,喜歡文學、藝術、電影欣賞及旅行,並選擇性翻譯日文作品,包括村上春樹的多本著作。
里面所写的故事都是同一个故事:男人如何和女人相交,男人如何和女人分离,男人如何被抛却在女人的回忆之外。所有的男人都是连续的,所有女人都无异,故事总指向一个终点:那里的人想相爱,却不知道相爱是何物;想知道自己,却无法找到定位。村上的书依然是那样带有小资的青春...
评分 评分村上春樹的故事總帶著他特有的文字韻味與迷離性,我很習慣那種氣味,一種專屬他的氣味,富含孤獨、愛戀、死亡與生命問號的唯美氣味。在閱讀這本短篇集時,故事的餘味讓我想起他從前的長篇小說,於是同時重讀了『挪威的森林』。不知為何,我對他另一本長篇小說『1Q84』裡的故事...
评分总之不是很喜欢村上的短篇。 独立器官 写作手法上,天啊,真的太不喜欢这种以对话叙述主要情节的方法了,小说本来就是要以情节取胜啊,悬念或是伏笔本来就是为推动情节而服务的嘛,为什么这部短篇连女主角的基本信息都几乎没有……读来实在是略有不爽 没有遇见女主前的渡会简直...
评分The disquieting stillness that permeates *Men Without Women* is what initially drew me in and ultimately captivated me. The characters are often caught in moments of quiet contemplation, their lives marked by an almost palpable sense of waiting, a suspension of forward momentum. I was struck by how the author manages to imbue these seemingly uneventful moments with such profound emotional weight. It’s not about dramatic action, but about the subtle shifts in perception, the internal monologues that reveal a deep well of introspection and often, a quiet melancholy. The absence of women in these narratives often creates a vacuum, a space that is both empty and filled with the echoes of what once was. This collection excels at portraying the unspoken, the subtle gestures, and the lingering questions that define these men’s existences. It’s a testament to Murakami’s unique ability to create an atmosphere that is both familiar and slightly off-kilter, drawing the reader into the characters’ inner worlds with a disarming intimacy. The stories don’t offer easy answers or resolutions; instead, they invite a prolonged engagement with the complexities of human connection, the nature of loss, and the quiet resilience that allows individuals to continue navigating their lives even in the face of profound emptiness.
评分The introspective quality of *Men Without Women* is what truly drew me into its world. Each story acts as a portal into the quiet, often solitary lives of men grappling with the absence of significant female figures. I found myself mesmerized by the author’s ability to translate internal landscapes into tangible narratives, where mundane routines and fleeting thoughts become imbued with profound emotional resonance. The characters are not defined by outward drama, but by their internal dialogues, their lingering regrets, and their quiet attempts to make sense of a world that feels fundamentally altered by loss. It’s a collection that delves into the unspoken, the subtle gestures, and the emotional voids that can shape a man’s identity. The author masterfully uses everyday settings, often imbued with a touch of the surreal, to amplify the sense of introspection and the quiet melancholy that pervades these narratives. What resonated most deeply was the understanding that absence can become a more potent presence than anything that might fill its place, shaping perceptions and influencing behavior in profound ways. This is not a book that offers easy answers or straightforward resolutions; rather, it invites the reader into a shared space of contemplation, a quiet acknowledgment of the enduring human search for meaning and connection, even in the face of overwhelming emptiness.
评分Murakami's subtle yet profound examination of memory and its role in shaping present reality is a cornerstone of *Men Without Women*. The characters are often adrift in a sea of recollections, their present lives inextricably linked to the women who have faded from their immediate presence but remain vividly etched in their minds. I found myself drawn into the intricate workings of these memories, the way they resurface unexpectedly, color perceptions, and influence decisions, often in ways the characters themselves don't fully understand. The author masterfully uses sensory details and seemingly ordinary occurrences to trigger these cascades of remembrance, blurring the lines between past and present. It’s a testament to his skill that these explorations of memory feel so visceral and relatable, even when tinged with a certain surreal quality. The absence of women in these narratives often acts as a powerful conduit for memory, intensifying the longing and the introspection. This collection doesn't offer a simple narrative arc; rather, it invites the reader to experience the ebb and flow of consciousness, the way the past continues to live within us, shaping our understanding of ourselves and our relationships. It’s a deeply contemplative work that underscores the enduring power of human connection, even when that connection exists only in the realm of memory.
评分Murakami's exploration of masculinity in *Men Without Women* is a poignant and often disquieting journey into the hearts and minds of men grappling with absence. The narratives, each a distinct microcosm, delve into the multifaceted ways women, or rather their absence, shape a man's identity, his memories, and his very existence. I was particularly struck by the quiet desperation that permeates these stories, the lingering echoes of past relationships that continue to dictate present behaviors and emotional states. It’s not just about romantic loss, though that is a significant thread, but also about the broader void left by a significant female presence in their lives – be it a mother, a sister, or a muse. The author masterfully uses everyday scenarios, mundane objects, and seemingly insignificant details to build a profound sense of longing and melancholy. The characters often find themselves adrift, their sense of purpose and self-worth intricately tied to the women they have lost or who have left them. This dependency, while sometimes presented with a wry humor, ultimately underscores a vulnerability that is both relatable and deeply human. The stories don't offer easy answers or resolutions, which I found to be one of their strengths. Instead, they invite the reader to contemplate the complexities of human connection, the enduring power of memory, and the often-unseen battles men fight within themselves when confronted with solitude and the phantom limb of lost intimacy. The prose itself is a character, a carefully crafted vessel for these introspective explorations, drawing you into the quiet corners of these men’s lives and leaving you with a lingering sense of empathy for their silent struggles. It’s a book that demands reflection, and the themes it tackles are likely to resonate long after the final page is turned.
评分Murakami's signature blend of the surreal and the mundane is on full display in *Men Without Women*, creating a narrative atmosphere that is both familiar and subtly unsettling. The stories explore the porous boundaries between reality and imagination, where everyday objects and occurrences can take on an uncanny significance, reflecting the inner turmoil of the characters. I was particularly drawn to how the absence of women in these men's lives seems to unlock a different kind of perception, a heightened awareness of the strange and the liminal. It’s as if their detachment from conventional societal roles, particularly those tied to traditional domesticity, allows them to perceive the world through a more distorted yet perhaps more truthful lens. The recurring motifs of music, dreams, and symbolic animals further enhance this dreamlike quality, weaving a narrative tapestry that is both aesthetically pleasing and thematically rich. The characters often find themselves caught in loops of memory and regret, their present existence haunted by the ghosts of past relationships. This sense of being trapped, of being unable to fully escape the gravitational pull of what was, is a central theme that the author explores with remarkable depth. It’s a collection that doesn’t offer comfort in the traditional sense, but rather a profound exploration of the human condition, the enduring mysteries of love and loss, and the ways in which we construct meaning in the face of overwhelming absence.
评分The quiet resignation that pervades *Men Without Women* is a sentiment I found deeply affecting. The characters are not actively seeking solutions or dramatic change; instead, they seem to have accepted a certain fundamental incompleteness, a state of being perpetually "without." This isn't to say they are passive or apathetic, but rather that their struggles are internal, often manifesting as a quiet persistence in the face of an ongoing, undefined emptiness. I was particularly struck by the way in which the author portrays these men navigating their daily lives, the subtle gestures and internal monologues that reveal their underlying melancholy. It’s a testament to the author’s observational prowess that he can imbue such ordinary moments with such profound emotional resonance. The absence of women in their lives isn’t always a source of overt pain, but more often a constant, low-level hum of longing, a reminder of something vital that has been lost or never truly possessed. This understated approach to emotional turmoil is what makes the collection so impactful; it’s the quiet whispers of regret, the unspoken desires, and the lingering questions that echo in the silence. The stories don't aim to shock or provoke, but rather to invite the reader into a shared space of contemplation, a quiet acknowledgment of the inherent fragility of human connection and the enduring search for meaning in its absence.
评分The exploration of masculine identity, particularly in relation to absent female presences, is a recurring and compelling theme in *Men Without Women*. The characters, each in their own unique way, are defined by what is no longer there, by the women who have departed their lives or who remain elusive phantoms of memory. I was particularly struck by the author’s keen insight into how these absences shape a man’s perception of himself, his desires, and his place in the world. It’s not just about romantic relationships; the narratives touch upon the broader impact of female figures on a man’s formative years and his ongoing emotional landscape. The stories often delve into the melancholic beauty of these men’s lives, their quiet routines punctuated by moments of introspection and a persistent, often unspoken, longing. The author doesn't shy away from the awkwardness and the vulnerability that can accompany these emotional voids, portraying them with a disarming honesty that invites empathy. What makes this collection so powerful is its refusal to offer simplistic explanations or easy resolutions. Instead, it invites the reader to sit with the characters in their quiet struggles, to contemplate the enduring mysteries of human connection and the profound impact of absence on the human psyche. It’s a collection that lingers, prompting reflection on the intricate tapestry of relationships and the indelible marks they leave upon us.
评分Murakami's ability to capture the subtle nuances of loneliness in *Men Without Women* is truly remarkable. The protagonists are not necessarily ostracized or completely isolated, but they exist in a state of profound internal solitude, a detachment from the world and from others that is palpable. I found myself deeply drawn into the quiet lives of these men, their routines and their internal reflections that often betray a deep-seated yearning for connection, even if they are unable to articulate or pursue it. The author masterfully uses everyday settings – quiet bars, empty apartments, solitary walks – to amplify this sense of isolation, transforming mundane spaces into poignant reflections of the characters' inner states. What resonated with me was the understanding that loneliness isn't always about being physically alone, but rather about feeling disconnected, unseen, or unacknowledged. The absence of women in these narratives serves as a catalyst, bringing to the surface a vulnerability that the men often struggle to comprehend or address. The stories don't offer easy answers or catharsis, but rather a profound exploration of the human condition, the enduring search for meaning, and the quiet dignity with which these men navigate their solitary paths. It's a collection that invites introspection and leaves a lasting impression of empathy for the often-unseen battles fought within the quiet corners of the soul.
评分The subtle yet powerful portrayal of isolation in *Men Without Women* is what truly captivated me. Each protagonist, despite their differing circumstances, is bound by a shared experience of detachment, a feeling of being on the periphery of a life that once felt whole. This isn't a dramatic, outward alienation, but rather an internal sequestration, a quiet withdrawal from the world that leaves them suspended in a state of perpetual contemplation. The stories often highlight the mundane routines that become the scaffolding of their solitary existence, the small rituals that fill the void left by companionship. I found myself drawn into the quiet desperation of these men, their inability to fully connect or to move past the lingering specter of departed women. It's a testament to the author's skill that these seemingly ordinary lives are imbued with such profound emotional weight. The landscapes, both internal and external, often mirror this sense of emptiness – empty apartments, silent cities, and the vastness of internal memory. What struck me most was the nuanced understanding of how absence can become a more potent presence than anything that might fill its place. The narratives don't force a resolution; rather, they allow the reader to sit with the characters in their quiet desolation, fostering a sense of understanding and even tenderness for their plight. It’s a collection that delves into the unspoken, the unseen, and the deeply personal, revealing the intricate tapestry of a man’s inner life when the anchors of connection have been severed.
评分Murakami's exploration of the ephemeral nature of connection in *Men Without Women* is a recurring theme that resonated deeply with me. The narratives often focus on relationships that have either ended or are inherently transient, leaving the male protagonists grappling with a sense of impermanence and longing. I was particularly struck by the author’s ability to capture the delicate dance of human interaction, the unspoken understandings, and the subtle shifts that can signify the beginning or end of intimacy. The absence of women in these stories serves as a catalyst, bringing to the fore the underlying fragility of these connections and the profound impact their absence can have on a man’s sense of self and his perception of the world. The author doesn't shy away from the awkwardness and the vulnerability inherent in these situations, portraying them with a disarming honesty that invites empathy. What makes this collection so compelling is its refusal to offer neat conclusions or sentimental resolutions. Instead, it invites the reader to contemplate the mysteries of human relationships, the enduring power of memory, and the quiet dignity with which individuals navigate the inevitable ebb and flow of connection. It’s a collection that lingers, prompting reflection on the intricate tapestry of our emotional lives.
评分里面的几个故事挺喜欢的。也许村上比较了解男性心理。
评分断断续续竟然读了快一年,村上的短篇集还是应该一口气看完才对。最喜欢【木野】这篇,让我想起来很久前读 寻羊冒险记 的时候那种感同身受想一起哭的心情。
评分断断续续竟然读了快一年,村上的短篇集还是应该一口气看完才对。最喜欢【木野】这篇,让我想起来很久前读 寻羊冒险记 的时候那种感同身受想一起哭的心情。
评分除了第一篇<ドライブ・マイ・カー>里面两个人物,其余的看完就没有印象了,整本书没有能够引起共鸣之处。回想一下写的都是一些絮絮叨叨的感情纠葛,好不容易读到一篇有点故事情节的「木野」,蛇出现了,主人公出走了,然后呢?然后故事尾巴被蛇咬断了······
评分村上新书《没有女人的男人们》是谁说的来着,每一个作家写了第一本小说之后,所有小说都是在重复第一本。村上也是如此。这本有个特别的地方—— 以前看他的小说能知道,虽然他和夫人感情非常好,但在他是有不止一个情人的。但这是他有史以来第一次写了个男人专情老婆出轨的故事。
