Elif Batuman was born in New York City and grew up in New Jersey. She now lives in Twin Peaks, San Francisco (near the radio tower). She is the recipient of a Rona Jaffe Prize. She teaches literature at Stanford University.
Elif Batuman’s voice—unpredictable, comic, humane, ironic, charming, poignant, and completely, unpretentiously full of love for literature—has made her one of the most admired writers of her generation. Love and the novel, the individual in history, the existential plight of the graduate student: all find their place in The Possessed.
Literally and metaphorically following the footsteps of her favorite authors, Batuman takes her reader to Stanford, Switzerland, and St. Petersburg as she investigates a possible murder at Tolstoy's ancestral estate. The student devoted to the Russian classics will retrace Pushkin’s wanderings in the Caucasus; learn why Old Uzbek has one hundred different words for crying; and see an eighteenth-century ice palace reconstructed on the Neva.
Batuman searches for the answers to the big questions in the details of lived experience, combining fresh readings of the great Russians, from Pushkin to Platonov, with the sad and funny stories of the lives they continue to influence—including her own.

作者好可愛w!
评分作者是真的可愛!書是真的好笑!她說到there's a central meaning in every story, either you get it or you don't -- 至少現在的我不能更同意
评分譯此書的過程很愉快。
评分天纔作者的年輕歲月
评分講老托,老陀,巴彆爾,和彼得堡的冰宮殿的幾篇甚好,斯坦福比較文學係的故事也很神奇,烏茲彆剋的夏天那幾篇沒讀齣味道。
