在地下铁阅读——纽约客晒书单(双语)(2)
10. 《到灯塔去》 作者:弗吉尼亚·伍尔夫
推荐人里亚·萨马茨(Ria Samartzi):这本书讲述了拉姆齐一家人和几位客人在维特岛 (Isle ofWight)度假的故事。我喜欢这种意识流小说,就像面前有一台摄像机,在不同的人物前推进,很有电影的味道。读这本书的时候,你不用再去管脏兮兮的地铁。
To the Lighthouse by Virginia Woolf
推荐人雷·莱昂内·艾伦(Ray Leone Allen):事实上,我昨天在尚博格黑人文化研究中心(SchomburgCenter for Research in BlackCulture)参加了这本书的座谈会。它讲述的是一名叫朱尔斯(Jules)的双性黑人小孩。这本书在性别、种族、精神和意识层面都具有实验性。这方面我以前知道的不多,但昨天的座谈会真的很棒。目前我才读到第22页,但是觉得很享受。
Ria Samartzi: It’s a book about a family holidaying on the Isleof Wight and several people who have come to stay with him. I likethe way it moves through the different characters’ minds as ifthere were a camera present. It’s very cinematic. You don’t have todeal with the ugliness of the subway when you’re reading.

Ray Leone Allen: I actually went to a talk about it yesterday atthe Schomburg Center for Research in Black Culture. It’s about anintersex child name Jules, a black intersex child, and it’s anexperimental look at gender, race, spirit, consciousness. I didn’tknow a lot about it, but the talk was amazing. I’m only on page 22now, but I’m enjoying it.
