In the Dream House pdf epub mobi txt 电子书 下载 2024
In the Dream House is Carmen Maria Machado’s engrossing and wildly innovative account of a relationship gone bad, and a bold dissection of the mechanisms and cultural representations of psychological abuse. Tracing the full arc of a harrowing relationship with a charismatic but volatile woman, Machado struggles to make sense of how what happened to her shaped the person she was becoming.
And it’s that struggle that gives the book its original structure: each chapter is driven by its own narrative trope―the haunted house, erotica, the bildungsroman―through which Machado holds the events up to the light and examines them from different angles. She looks back at her religious adolescence, unpacks the stereotype of lesbian relationships as safe and utopian, and widens the view with essayistic explorations of the history and reality of abuse in queer relationships.
Machado’s dire narrative is leavened with her characteristic wit, playfulness, and openness to inquiry. She casts a critical eye over legal proceedings, fairy tales, Star Trek, and Disney villains, as well as iconic works of film and fiction. The result is a wrenching, riveting book that explodes our ideas about what a memoir can do and be.
Carmen Maria Machado is the author of the memoir In the Dream House and the short story collection Her Body and Other Parties. She has been a finalist for the National Book Award and the winner of the Bard Fiction Prize, the Lambda Literary Award for Lesbian Fiction, the Brooklyn Public Library Literature Prize, the Shirley Jackson Award, and the National Book Critics Circle's John Leonard Prize. In 2018, the New York Times listed Her Body and Other Parties as a member of "The New Vanguard," one of "15 remarkable books by women that are shaping the way we read and write fiction in the 21st century."
Her essays, fiction, and criticism have appeared in the New Yorker, the New York Times, Granta, Harper’s Bazaar, Tin House, VQR, Conjunctions, McSweeney's Quarterly Concern, The Believer, Guernica, Best American Science Fiction & Fantasy, Best American Nonrequired Reading, and elsewhere. She holds an MFA from the Iowa Writers’ Workshop and has been awarded fellowships and residencies from the Guggenheim Foundation, Michener-Copernicus Foundation, Elizabeth George Foundation, CINTAS Foundation, Yaddo, Hedgebrook, and the Millay Colony for the Arts. She is the Writer in Residence at the University of Pennsylvania and lives in Philadelphia with her wife.
今年最爱 结构实验+语言美(爱人的触摸就像小孩子第一次用自己的钱买东西似的)+ lesbian abusive relationship + 相关史料 / pop quiz那一小节我被辱骂得好爽 / 还refer了The Price of Salt和Mrs Dalloway!
评分琐碎到甚至像在读微博合集。那些破碎的情绪和零散的事件,一点一点构成 Dream House 里的那个她。选择逃离的过程是痛苦的,可只有切断过去才会迎来新来的开始。queer 也是普通人
评分hauntingly beautiful
评分这本书读来很痛。它是作者对曾经的一段激情但又充斥暴力与痛苦的同性亲密关系的回溯。它是非虚构的,是碎片式的,是一个人从外到内被摧毁后自我重建的一种尝试。它也只能是非虚构的,因为那种经验太过深刻以至于无法转化,太过切近以至于无法抽离。它也只能是碎片式的,因为那些对自我的厌弃、怀疑和否定,那些在伴侣熟睡的脸庞上望见的无尽黑暗与深渊,那些在本该是安全舒适的私密空间中喷涌的残酷与暴烈,在漫长的岁月里,像细小的尘埃,如影随形。这本书读来也很有力量。作者找到了描述痛苦的正确语言,进而创造了安放痛苦的恰当居所。于是过往的痛苦在此处,可以观看但不用于猎奇的展示,可以回味但不陷于无休止的自怜自艾。它构成了作者个体生命必不可少的组成部分,也构成性少数群体被噤声的历史上一句响亮的呐喊。
