M Train is a journey through eighteen "stations." It begins in the tiny Greenwich Village café where Smith goes every morning for black coffee, ruminates on the world as it is and the world as it was, and writes in her notebook. We then travel, through prose that shifts fluidly between dreams and reality, past and present, across a landscape of creative aspirations and inspirations: from Frida Kahlo's Casa Azul in Mexico, to a meeting of an Arctic explorer's society in Berlin; from the ramshackle seaside bungalow in New York's Far Rockaway that Smith buys just before Hurricane Sandy hits, to the graves of Genet, Plath, Rimbaud, and Mishima. Woven throughout are reflections on the writer's craft and on artistic creation, alongside signature memories including her life in Michigan with her husband, guitarist Fred Sonic Smith, whose untimely death was an irremediable loss. For it is loss, as well as the consolation we might salvage from it, that lies at the heart of this exquisitely told memoir, one augmented by stunning black-and-white Polaroids taken by Smith herself. M Train is a meditation on endings and on beginnings: a poetic tour de force by one of the most brilliant multiplatform artists at work today.

想不想吃一块藏红花蛋糕。 泡杯薄荷茶吧。 不着边际的写作可没那么容易。愿你永远都能不着边际地写下去。 你有着明亮的眼睛啊。 这列M Train. 怀抱各式各样疯狂的指望。 颓废敏感暴躁的艺术性格。 情怀且偏执。 那么情怀啊,那么浪漫啊。 诗歌与摇滚。抱怨好像也没什么不好。这...
评分Patti说她可以记得梦境里发生的一切。我把这本书看作是她的一个梦。我们都沉浸在里面,踏上这一列时光列车。 大多数时候天空是灰蒙蒙的。很湿漉。三岛由纪夫的金阁寺,热内的圣洛朗监狱,黑塞的打字机,普拉斯雪中的墓碑,伍尔夫的手杖,波拉尼奥的椅子。。。Patti拍的照片一幕...
评分另一本是,三十三年梦。我想,人和书也是有际遇的。 这两本书,在书架上和其它未读书目间杂地列在一起,被我鬼使神差地同时开始阅读,惊诧其相似性之下,便顺理成章地缠绕在一起。 她们,我都不曾认识;她们各自都有更具才华更受好评的成名作,我都还不曾读。这两本,实际上是...
评分断断续续的在同一家咖啡馆里读完了这本处处有咖啡馆的书。忽然很好奇作者在年轻时候是一个什么人物,因为知道她很有名气,听过她的名字,而这本回忆录时候的她已经是个儿孙满堂的老年女人。说是回忆录,个人感觉更像她的一本随笔,想到哪里写到哪里,我好像从青年到时至如今的...
评分帕蒂在文章中写她对弗雷德的感情。“我对他的感情沾染了每一样事物——我作的诗,我怕写的歌,我全心全意都是他”。 这本书是我的爱人送我的生日礼物,我无意中的一句,他便把它送给我。在春节来临之前,在快递停运之前,在巨大的煎熬感到来之前,这本手被怀揣在我的心上。我喜...
读完后我整个人都安静了 无尽的孤单感袭来 Patti的文笔好 但是可能fred和各种人的离开对patti的影响太大了 以至于我觉得她有讲不完的故事 对世界里的每个人每个物件都怀有特殊的感情和不舍 我从没喝过black coffee +olive oil
评分Various delirious fever dreams written in the trace of memorial objects and subjects. Why was I crying so hard at the last chapter?
评分文艺老青年的极致碎碎念。It's hard to write about nothing.因为对她本人无感,对她写的虚无也无法感同身受,她不停地喝黑咖啡,找寻逝去的记忆,在世界各地的宾馆看侦探剧,找她去过的cafe和钟爱的作者的墓。还有宝丽来和猫。她不信精神分析,可她写的东西太适合精神分析了,梦啊回忆啊不知所措啊。
评分一位正在老去的文青,她的coffee and tv, 和文艺朝圣之旅,她多愁善感的日常喃喃,她逝去的时光。
