Saul Bellow is the winner of the 1976 Nobel Prize for Liter Ature.
Saul Bellow (June 10, 1915 – April 5, 2005) was a Canadian-born American writer. For his literary contributions, Bellow was awarded the Pulitzer Prize, the Nobel Prize for Literature, and the National Medal of Arts.[2] He is the only writer to have won the National Book Award three times, and the only writer to have been nominated for it six times.
In the words of the Swedish Nobel Committee, his writing exhibited "the mixture of rich picaresque novel and subtle analysis of our culture, of entertaining adventure, drastic and tragic episodes in quick succession interspersed with philosophic conversation, all developed by a commentator with a witty tongue and penetrating insight into the outer and inner complications that drive us to act, or prevent us from acting, and that can be called the dilemma of our age."[3] His best-known works include The Adventures of Augie March, Herzog, Mr. Sammler's Planet, Seize the Day, Humboldt's Gift and Ravelstein. Widely regarded as one of the twentieth century's greatest authors, Bellow has had a "huge literary influence."

Henderson the Rain King, is seriocomic novel by Saul Bellow, first published in 1959. The novel examines the midlife crisis of Eugene Henderson, an unhappy millionaire. The story concerns Henderson's search for meaning. A larger-than-life 55-year-old who has accumulated money, position, and a large family, he nonetheless feels unfulfilled. He makes a spiritual journey to Africa, where he draws emotional sustenance from experiences with African tribes. Deciding that his true destiny is as a healer, Henderson returns home, planning to enter medical school. a oeA kind of wildly delirious dream made real by the force of Bellowa (TM)s rollicking prose and the offbeat inventiveness of his language.a a " Chicago Tribune a oeBellowa (TM)s aura of fable is constantly washed over by humor, impulsive creation, and actual, turbulent detail.a a " The Nation
和书中所定义的亨德森的混乱不堪的生活相比,自己莫名的有些伤感,因为和他比起来,自己更像是个loser。感情上诸多的不顺,事业上也是高不高,低不低的,财富上也仅仅是平平状态,顶多自己比他少了些中年大叔的油腻劲以及不像他的内心那么空虚。 当然书的主旨不是要讲这些,而...
评分《雨王亨德森》是索尔•贝娄1959年的作品,也是他自己最喜欢的,“唯一一部会拿出来重读”的作品。 有过写作经验的人或许会知道,重读自己的作品其实是一种很微妙的体验。你想读的可能不是自己最“好”的作品——从某种意义上说,不管作品怎样,那个写出了这些文字的自己...

评分如果从读小说的角度看《雨王亨德森》还是有点累的,描写太干,心理活动太多。但是我知道,这百分之八十是翻译的问题。欧美的长篇小说很多不能让人读完,比如纳博科夫,唯一好读的只有《洛丽塔》。但是又很奇怪,世界上最会讲故事的作家也在他们那儿。 读完小说以后我才深刻明白...
