On January 7, 1980, in the run-up to the publication of Thy Neighbor’s Wife, Gay Talese received an anonymous letter from a man in Colorado. “Since learning of your long awaited study of coast-to-coast sex in America,” the letter began, “I feel I have important information that I could contribute to its contents or to contents of a future book.” The man went on to tell Talese a remarkable, shocking secret, so compelling that Talese traveled to Colorado to verify it in person. But because the letter-writer insisted on remaining anonymous, Talese filed his reporting away, certain the story would remain untold.
Over the next thirty-five years, the man occasionally reached out to Talese to fill him in on the latest developments in his life, but he continued to insist on anonymity. Finally, after thirty-five years, he’s ready to go public.
In the tradition of Thy Neighbor’s Wife, Talese’s landmark, best-selling exploration of the sexual revolution in America, this will be a provocative, eye-opening, and much-talked-about book.
Gay Talese was born in Ocean City, New Jersey, in 1932, to Italian immigrant parents. He attended the University of Alabama, and after graduating was hired as a copyboy at the New York Times. After a brief stint in the army, Talese returned to the New York Times in 1956. Since then he has written for numerous publications, including Esquire, the New Yorker, Newsweek, and Harper's Magazine. It was these articles that led Tom Wolfe to credit Gay Talese with the creation of an inventive form of nonfiction writing called "The New Journalism." Talese's bestselling books have dealt with the history and influence of the New York Times (The Kingdom and the Power); the inside story of a Mafia family (Honor Thy Father); his father's immigration to America from Italy in the years preceding World War II (Unto the Sons); and the changing moral values of America in the period between World War II and the AIDS epidemic (Thy Neighbor's Wife). Gay Talese lives with his wife, Nan, in New York City.
《鄰人之妻》作者的另一部作品,題材和內容關係,這本引進的可能性應該不高,不過可看性也比較一般就是瞭。作者1980年收到汽車旅館主(voyeur本人)的來信,描述瞭他在自傢旅館裏近二十年的偷窺行為,並視自己為某種業餘的觀察傢一樣的存在。作者在三十年間陸陸續續收到voyeur的偷窺記錄手稿,不過因為後者一直堅持匿名,所以直到多年後纔得以成書。雖然題材聽來獵奇,手稿摘錄中直白露骨的描述也不少,作為“業餘觀察傢”的voyeur也的確注意到瞭在緊閉的臥室門後一些尋常又值得注意的兩性互動,以及社會環境對其帶來的影響,但整體上有種流於泛泛的感覺,很像一本文筆平平的長篇日記……
評分A weird book about weird people doing weird things, and I wouldn’t have put it down if the house were on fire
評分Time is changing. All the "kinky" sex now is available on every kind of free porn channel. Sex is not the book's point after all, life is just boring and way too short at the same time. .
評分Gerald Foos bought a motel in order to watch his guests having sex. He saw a lot more than that.“I’ve seen enough.”
評分語言很簡潔流暢,內容對我來說算是個衝擊,現在對酒店有種莫名的恐懼,寫在25%閱讀的當下//Foos先生偷窺行為讓我覺得恐怖,他對各種sexuality的開放和包容,對男性的失望對蕾絲邊那種還蠻溫柔的認同又讓我覺得他也許真的是個人類性學傢?我不是被洗腦瞭吧?寫到45%閱讀的當下;成書以後 Foos曝光,他的生活有變化麼,被起訴瞭麼,房子賣掉瞭麼,collection賣掉瞭麼?

評分体裁算是比较特殊的,非虚构的写作手法也令人称赞。看之前更多期待有关个体行为的描述,比如旅客的职业和对话等,但journal中关于这方面的记录非常有限,大约七成的篇幅都是关于旅客的性生活,不过这也符合情境,毕竟Gerald无法探知旅客的身份和行程,并且偷窥的主要目的还是满...
