  • 吳曉樂/戰爭有女人的臉──讀王鷗行《此生,你我皆短暫燦爛》

    文/吳曉樂2021年03月31日

    這是一個怎樣的故事?書腰說是「是一封寫給不識字的母親的信」。你打開,扉頁引用邱妙津,足叫人眼前一黑,耳朵一聾。王鷗行是最年輕的艾略特獎得獎詩人,書中很多字句你會忍不住想讀出來,我們很少對小說這麼做,讀,並且讀「出來」,好像你相信這些文字不應只有一種生命。我屢屢懷疑有多少讀者跟我 more
  • 紀大偉 / 我住王鷗行隔壁──讀《此生,你我皆短暫燦爛》

    文/紀大偉2021年02月25日

    2019年,邱妙津《蒙馬特遺書》的英文版翻譯者韓瑞從美國飛來臺北,在政治大學分享翻譯邱妙津的經驗。那時候我首次得知,越南裔美國詩人「王海洋」即將出版一本自傳性小說,全書出現的第一句話就來自《蒙馬特遺書》:「但是讓我再以我的生命為基礎,用我的文字建這一小方地,看看,能不能再給你一個中 more
 

內容簡介

A New York Times bestseller - Nominated for the National Book Award for Fiction - Ocean Vuong’s debut novel is a shattering portrait of a family, a first love, and the redemptive power of storytelling

New York Times Readers Pick: 100 Best Books of the 21st Century

"A lyrical work of self-discovery that’s shockingly intimate and insistently universal...Not so much briefly gorgeous as permanently stunning." --Ron Charles, The Washington Post

"This is one of the best novels I’ve ever read...Ocean Vuong is a master. This book a masterpiece."--Tommy Orange, author of There There and Wandering Stars

On Earth We’re Briefly Gorgeous is a letter from a son to a mother who cannot read. Written when the speaker, Little Dog, is in his late twenties, the letter unearths a family’s history that began before he was born -- a history whose epicenter is rooted in Vietnam -- and serves as a doorway into parts of his life his mother has never known, all of it leading to an unforgettable revelation. At once a witness to the fraught yet undeniable love between a single mother and her son, it is also a brutally honest exploration of race, class, and masculinity. Asking questions central to our American moment, immersed as we are in addiction, violence, and trauma, but undergirded by compassion and tenderness, On Earth We’re Briefly Gorgeous is as much about the power of telling one’s own story as it is about the obliterating silence of not being heard.

With stunning urgency and grace, Ocean Vuong writes of people caught between disparate worlds, and asks how we heal and rescue one another without forsaking who we are. The question of how to survive, and how to make of it a kind of joy, powers the most important debut novel of many years.

Named a Best Book of the Year by:
GQ, Kirkus Reviews, Booklist, Library Journal, TIME, Esquire, The Washington Post, Apple, Good Housekeeping, The New Yorker, The New York Public Library, Elle.com, The Guardian, The A.V. Club, NPR, Lithub, Entertainment Weekly, Vogue.com, The San Francisco Chronicle, Mother Jones, Vanity Fair, The Wall Street Journal Magazine, and more!
