圖書描述

Address Unknown (1938)

(The title is actually a mistranslation of the term "Adressat unbekannt," which is marked on the last envelope. The correct translation of "Adressat" is "addressee," not "address"; which is much more in keeping with the plot of the story.) It is the story of two German friends and business partners, art dealers in San Francisco. Martin, a gentile, returns with his family to Germany, exhilarated by the advances in the old country since the humiliation of the Great War. The Jewish partner, Max, remains in the States to keep the business going. The story is told entirely in letters between them, from 1932 to 1934, the technique used in 84 Charing Cross Road.

Martin writes about the wonderful Third Reich and this fellow Hitler. At first Max is covetous: "How I envy you! ... You go to a democratic Germany, a land with a deep culture and the beginnings of a fine political freedom."

But Max soon doubts his friend’s enthusiasm, having heard from eyewitnesses who got out of Berlin that Jews were being beaten and their businesses boycotted. Martin responds, telling Max that, while they may be good friends, everybody knows that Jews have been the universal scapegoats, and "a few must suffer for the millions to be saved."

"This Jew trouble is only an incident," Martin says. "Something bigger is happening." Nonetheless, he asks Max to stop writing to him. If a letter were intercepted, he (Martin) would lose his official position and he and his family would be endangered.

Max writes anyhow when his own sister, an actress in Berlin, goes missing. He becomes frantic to learn her fate. Martin responds on bank stationery (less likely to be inspected) and tells Max his sister is dead. He admits that he turned Griselle away when she came to him, her brother’s dearest friend, for sanctuary.

There is a gap of about a month. After that, Max starts writing letters to Martin at home, carrying only what looks like business and remarks about the weather, but written as though they have a hidden encoded meaning, with strange references to exact dimensions of pictures and so on. The letters refer to "our grandmother" and imply that Martin is also Jewish. The letters from Munich to San Francisco get shorter and more panicky, begging Max to stop: "My God, Max, do you know what you do? ... These letters you have sent ... are not delivered, but they bring me in and ... demand I give them the code ... I beg you, Max, no more, no more! Stop while I can be saved."

But Max continues: "Prepare these for distribution by March 24th: Rubens 12 by 77, blue; Giotto 1 by 317, green and white; Poussin 20 by 90, red and white."

At last a letter is returned to Max, stamped: Adressat unbekannt. Addressee Unknown.

The book’s "Afterword," lovingly written by Mrs. Taylor’s son, says that the idea for her story came from a small news article: American students in Germany wrote home with the truth about the Nazi atrocities, a truth most Americans, including Charles Lindbergh, would not accept. Fraternity brothers thought it would be funny to send them letters making fun of Hitler, and they wrote back, "Stop it. We’re in danger. These people don’t fool around. You could murder [someone] by writing letters to him." Thus emerged the idea of "letter as weapon" or "murder by mail."

Address Unknown was performed as a stage play in France, 2001, in Israel from 2002 (still running) and at the Promenade Theater, New York, 2004. It has also been performed in Germany, Italy, Turkey,Argentina, South Africa and in various cities of the USA.

Address Unknown (Cimzett Ismeretlen) premieres on the stage of Spinoza Haz in Budapest, Hungary on September 6, 2008.

1938年一位女性作者用男人名字發錶,可惜當時並沒有引起很大關注。強推。內容就不介紹瞭;篇幅極短,少刷會兒票圈就讀完瞭。可下電子版,有中譯本,BBC有有聲書,還有stage play。

結局很震撼,超難忘……世界真黑暗……

評分

一邊聽Peter Anders 的Winterreise一邊看真是太應景瞭。censor.ship。同樣的體裁,想起查令街84號,想起波伏瓦的《越洋情書》。想起茨維塔耶娃寫給裏爾剋:如果我們一同被人夢見,那便是我們的相逢。 ——上麵這句話,今天用於錶達未曾謀麵的情意似乎過於膚淺瞭

評分

還以為是為瞭避免censorship纔寫瞭歌頌hitler的話 沒想到. 後續發展也很是厲害. 1938年第一次發錶 80年後看還是很讓人警醒.

讀後感

評分

搬家的时候清理旧物,翻出了小学到初中的信件与贺卡。信封微黄,贺卡褪色,写信人已杳无音讯,收件人已物是人非。只是重读的时候便在感慨,曾经单纯而真挚的你我何时才能重现? 寄过信件的我们知晓,当收件人错误或者无法联系时,便会退回然后写上“查无此人”之类的 话语。时...  

評分

与《查令十字街84号》形式相似,都是以书信组成全文,但是两者风格截然不同,《查令》读完,让我感觉到温暖,而这本书读完,则是噬骨的寒意,从头到脚的寒毛竖起来了,紧接着就是悲伤,再然后就是对那段历史的思考。 故事发生的背景是在一战之后,德国损伤惨重,纳粹分子趁虚而...

評分

不到两万字的内容。模拟出了我心中的对某种“不久可能”的恐惧;甚至部分的,是对某些“已经/正在发生”的困惑。写法当然很讨巧,不过节奏上感觉多少有点过快(也许是主观上不愿意接受),未免有“上帝视角”。不过也说不定,所谓“心路历程”,并不是什么匀速运动,许多转向/...  

評分

五十多页一波三折,只是几封短短的通信,但却能让人从中看出玄机,看出一身冷汗。 全书的两次查无此人,丝丝入扣。压抑的政治环境、友情的微妙变化、为爱情牺牲的少女、出人意料的结局,错综复杂的人性...... “人性就是在一定社会制度和一定历史条件下形成的人的本性。”人性...
