Go, Went, Gone is the masterful new novel by the acclaimed German writer Jenny Erpenbeck, “one of the most significant German-language novelists of her generation” (The Millions). The novel tells the tale of Richard, a retired classics professor who lives in Berlin. His wife has died, and he lives a routine existence until one day he spies some African refugees staging a hunger strike in Alexanderplatz. Curiosity turns to compassion and an inner transformation, as he visits their shelter, interviews them, and becomes embroiled in their harrowing fates. Go, Went, Gone is a scathing indictment of Western policy toward the European refugee crisis, but also a touching portrait of a man who finds he has more in common with the Africans than he realizes. Exquisitely translated by Susan Bernofsky, Go, Went, Gone addresses one of the most pivotal issues of our time, facing it head-on in a voice that is both nostalgic and frightening.
作者對主角的人設很有意思,雖然有些流水賬式的描寫但是讀起來卻不會覺得乏味

評分Enlightened few (fitting personality, a retired East German professor in literature, and widowed). But what could the enlightened few do, their powerlessness; and the described shocking images of a white with few blacks still is the community's reaction to refuges.. But also true is how media slanting (even NYT etc) fuels community anger.
評分作為一本半紀實文學書,作者有真實地去采訪過這些難民。本書基調緩慢細膩。讀這本書的前幾個章節曾想過主角應該會和這些移民者一起成長之類的,但是人的成長畢竟沒有那麼快嘛,主人公Richard並沒有經曆“人格上的升華”,可能這就是現實吧。 本書的結尾留給讀者的是深深地無奈。上英語課有分析很多這個那個的,可是這些對難民的生活會有幫助嗎?作者寫瞭這麼多使得人們更瞭解他們的生活並更關心他們的生活瞭吧,可能這是幫助吧。
