具体描述
"Peeling the Onion" is a searingly honest memoir that evokes Grass' modest upbringing in Danzig, his time as a boy soldier fighting the Russians and concludes with the writing of his masterpiece, "The Tin Drum", in Paris. Grass' parents ran a corner shop, but his mother, whom he adored, encouraged him towards books and music. Like most of his peers, he joined the Hitler Youth and in 1944, when he was just 17, he was sent to the Eastern front with the Waffen SS and found himself facing Russian tanks and machine guns. Recovering from shrapnel wounds in a military hospital, he had the good fortune to be taken prisoner by the Americans. In the aftermath of the war, following a stint as a miner, Grass survived by trading on the black market and resolved to become an artist, eventually enrolling at the Academy of Arts in Dusseldorf. While living as an artist in Berlin with his first wife Anna, a ballet dancer, he started to concentrate on writing poetry. It was after the couple moved to Paris that the first sentence of the novel he had been determined to write and that would make his reputation came to him: 'Granted: I am an inmate of a mental hospital'. "Peeling the Onion" is the story of a remarkable life and is, without question, one of Gunter Grass' finest works.

待他死时，一定会带着这本自传去见上帝，祈求后者因为他的坦诚而给予宽恕。可惜的是，最早享受这种坦白的不是爱他的人，而是他的政敌。那些几十年里被他犀利言辞批判得无地自容的人终于逮到机会口沫四溅一次：“格拉斯不配‘公民的良心’这个称谓！——他曾是个党卫军！” 让...

格拉斯在这本出版于2006名为《剥洋葱》的回忆录中，记叙了他从12岁到32岁的生活经历，虽贵为诺贝尔文学奖得主，而且撰写此书时，作者也是耄耋之年，但是依然以非自以为是的心态与恐怕有误的笔触，描写自己经历的事情——是否都无误，作者随时告诉你，未必！提现了一个对世事抱...
在长达380页的阅读中，我始终处于一种颇为尴尬的困惑状态，虽然本书的封面上已经注明了这23万8千字的纪实性质，但是，它们给我的感觉，却比任何一部虚构作品更为虚假（但愿，我的说法不至于冒犯到作者）。如果我再去重复“生活远比小说更精彩”之类的陈词滥调，也许是对作者真...
