On an unseasonably warm autumn day, an American teacher walks down a staircase beneath Sofia's National Palace of Culture, looking for sex. Among the stalls of a public bathroom he encounters Mitko, a charismatic young hustler. He returns to Mitko again and again over the next few months, and their trysts grow increasingly intimate and unnerving as the enigma of this young man becomes inseparable from that of his homeland, Bulgaria, a country with a difficult past and an uncertain future.
Garth Greenwell's What Belongs to You is a stunning debut about an American expat struggling with his own complicated inheritance while navigating a foreign culture. Lyrical and intense, it tells the story of a man caught between longing and resentment, unable to separate desire from danger, and faced with the impossibility of understanding those he most longs to know.
Soaked in melancholy. 怎么说呢,看得心情是复杂的,这种很难抽离的反复感看得让人心碎的同时又无比的焦心。作为debut novel,可能确实值得肯定。但文体很流俗,读起来一点都不流畅而且还让人觉得过分矫情。不舒服是第一感觉,好在篇幅不长。不过第二部分不分段,我当时都想弃读了!但同样间接表达了对那段记忆作者想要表达的复杂情绪吧。最后兜兜转转,更多是一种对于Bulgaria衰败感的批判,Mitko这样的人物也只能是小小社会的一个缩影了吧。
评分读到128页放弃。这作者会写的。但可能我是圈中人,经历过听说过太多有所似的故事,不觉新鲜。Mitko这角色使我想起法国电影Les témoins那青年。
评分Many aspects of the story hark back to Giovanni’s Room; a contemporary story told in a way reminiscent of writings of authors from last century.
评分看得出来最后作者想要表达的,破败的国家,大家只想往外跑找工作,留下来的却变成Mitko这样。反而像社会小说了。然而本身本书读感极其差,作者不分段,而且虽然篇幅短,其实只写了大约十个场景,中间特别是去医院废话实在太多了,文字也不能说好,有时候过于拗口装逼,让人感觉作者主修English literature。另外,其实本书只是reformed cliché罢了,比如被出柜遭抛弃+暗恋指南。另外Mitsko塑造的也不好,像一个符号而不是一个人物,描绘的非常平面。
