Bliss Montage

內容簡介

內容簡介 以Severance獲得筆 海明威獎與Kirkus獎的華裔作家馬玲(Ling Ma)，以她獨有的冷硬、疏離筆調，書寫8篇短篇奇科幻小說，以顛覆的想像與暗喻，解構現代人對自我和他人的關係，與對家與國的記憶。A National Indie BestsellerA New Yorker Best Book of the YearA New York Times Book Review Editor’s Choice“Dazzling . . . Ling Ma writes with such authority that we readers are simply swept along . . . If sometimes we wonder where we’ve ended up, maybe that sense of dislocation is the desired final effect.” —Maureen Corrigan, NPR’s Fresh Air“Uncanny and haunting . . . The genius of Bliss Montage is unearthed in how Ma stretches the boundaries of the world while zooming in on the details that matter most . . . A powerful reminder that there is more than one way to see — and really know — a person.” —Michele Filgate, The Washington PostA new creation by the author of Severance, Bliss Montage crashes through our carefully built mirages.What happens when fantasy tears the screen of the everyday to wake us up? Could that waking be our end?In Bliss Montage, Ling Ma brings us eight wildly different tales of people making their way through the madness and reality of our collective delusions: love and loneliness, connection and possession, friendship, motherhood, the idea of home. A woman lives in a house with all her ex-boyfriends. A toxic friendship grows up around a drug that makes you invisible. An ancient ritual might heal you of anything—if you bury yourself alive.These and other scenarios investigate the ways that the outlandish and the ordinary are shockingly, deceptively, heartbreakingly alike."
