Oscar is a sweet but fat sci-fi obsessed introvert who -- from the New Jersey home he shares with his old world mother and rebellious sister -- dreams of becoming the Dominican J.R.R. Tolkien and, most of all, of finding love. But Oscar may never get what he wants. Blame the fuku -- a curse that has haunted Oscar's family for generations, following them on their epic journey from New Jersey to Washington Heights and back to Santo Domingo. Encapsulating Dominican American history, Oscar's story open our eyes to an astonishing vision of the contemporary American experience and explores the endless human capacity to persevere -- and risk it all -- in the name of love.

評分 評分最近看完了The Brief Wondrous Life of Oscar Wao, Junot Diaz花了十年写了这薄薄一本小说,我也花了几乎三个月读它。有的批评者看这类小说好不好就看它像不像《百年孤独》,巴不得上下十八代交代齐全,为了写时代而写人物,人物看起来假得很。奥斯卡那班评委一个德行:“为奴...
