刚读完托马斯·曼的《布登勃洛克一家》(Buddenbrooks)。绝对是我读过的最好的书之一。它篇幅很长且有些枯燥,但如果你喜欢沉浸在对过去时代人们日常生活琐事和平常物品的细致描绘中,……
Just finished Buddenbrooks by Thomas Mann. One of the best books I've read, ever. It's long and tedious, and if you like getting lost in minute descriptions of mundane objects and daily routines of people who lived in past eras,…
托马斯·曼的《布登勃洛克一家》(Buddenbrooks)。威廉·曼彻斯特的《最后的雄狮》(The Last Lion: Alone)。

没错!托马斯·曼就在那份难读的书单里。我记得自己当时特别惊叹,他在《布登勃洛克一家》里居然能提前 50 页铺一个梗,最后才亮出 punchline。他真是个极度自律且有耐心的讲故事高手。你最喜欢的“难读”作家是谁?
Yes! Thomas Mann was in the list of difficult books. I remember marveling how he set up a joke in Buddenbrooks 50 pages before springing the punchline. He's an incredibly disciplined and patient storyteller. Who is your favorite 'difficult' author?
我们都想给孩子我们认为好的东西。我希望我假想中的孩子能读《布登勃洛克一家》(Buddenbrooks),但我知道他们多半会去看 YouTube。社交媒体明星是名气的延伸,而名气是人类的基本欲望。名气……并不令人意外(甚至在公民层面也谈不上特别有害)。
We all want the things we consider good for our children. I want my hypothetical ones to read Buddenbrooks, but I know they're probably going to watch YouTube instead. Social media stars are an extension of fame, a basic human desire. It's not surprising (or even particularly civically harmful) that fame…
全是虚构类。-《了不起的盖茨比》(The Great Gatsby)。非常喜欢,而且感觉很符合当下的时代。- 托马斯·曼的《布登勃洛克一家》(Buddenbrooks)。家族财富的盛极而衰。很适合让人看开世事。- 阿切贝的《瓦解》(Things Fall Apart)。- 约翰·斯坦贝克的《珍珠》(The Pearl)- 丹·西蒙斯的《海伯利安》(Hyperion,第一部)。超棒的科幻……
All fiction. - The Great Gatsby. Really enjoyed it and seemed fitting with the current times. - Buddenbrooks, Thomas Mann. Generational wealth come and gone. Good for putting things into perspective. - Things Fall Apart, Achebe. - The Pearl, John Steinbeck - Hyperion (first book), Dan Simmons. Great sci-fi.…
……过去的公司、民族国家也大致遵循这种模式。http://www.historyguide.org/europe/kennan.html > 这种现象让人联想起托马斯·曼在他伟大小说《布登勃洛克一家》中打的一个比方。他观察到,人类制度往往在内部腐朽其实已经到了最深重阶段时,外表反而呈现出最耀眼的光芒,他将其比作那些光芒最为炽热……
…Companies, nation states of years past can also follow this rough pattern. http://www.historyguide.org/europe/kennan.html > This phenomenon brings to mind a comparison used by Thomas Mann in his great novel Buddenbrooks. Observing that human institutions often show the greatest outward brilliance at a moment when inner decay is in reality farthest advanced, he compared one of those stars whose light shines most brightly…
