书籍简介:
At the age of 14 Georg Koves is plucked from his home in a Jewish section of Budapest and without any particular malice, placed on a train to Auschwitz. He does not understand the reason for his fate. He doesn’t particularly think of himself as Jewish. And his fellow prisoners, who decry his lack of Yiddish, keep telling him, “You are no Jew.” In the lowest circle of the Holocaust, Georg remains an outsider.
The genius of Imre Kertesz’s unblinking novel lies in its refusal to mitigate the strangeness of its events, not least of which is Georg’s dogmatic insistence on making sense of what he witnesses–or pretending that what he witnesses makes sense. Haunting, evocative, and all the more horrifying for its rigorous avoidance of sentiment, Fatelessness is a masterpiece in the traditions of Primo Levi, Elie Wiesel, and Tadeusz Borowski.
作者简介:
凯尔泰斯·伊姆雷(1929— ) 匈牙利犹太作家,2002年诺贝尔文学奖获得者。14岁被纳粹投入集中营,1945年获救。1975年,以他在集中营的生活为背景的处女作《无命运的人生》出版,这也是他最著名的作品。它与长篇自传体小说《惨败》和《为一个未出生的孩子哭祷》通常被称作凯尔泰斯大屠杀小说的三部曲。另有《英国旗》、《苦役日记》等中篇小说。他的演讲和随笔被收理成《作为一种文化的大屠杀》、《行刑队再次上膛前的瞬间静默》以及《被放逐的语言》等集子出版。
凯尔泰斯的作品尽管内容各不相同,但实际上都从各个不同角度传达着同一个主题——大屠杀。作者通过描述自己在集中营的亲身经历,探索着这样一种可能性:在人类屈服于社会强权的时代个人如何继续生活和思考。
