我在容易受影响的年纪发现了 Gaddis，他的书，尤其是《The Recognitions》，对我产生了巨大的影响。我从中汲取的，基本上是对资本主义现代性的精神批判，以及对中世纪的生活节奏、longtermism 和宗教意味的怀念（虽然也意识到……
I discovered Gaddis at an impressionable age and his books, especially The Recognitions, had a massive influence on me. What I took away was basically a spiritual critique of capitalist modernity and nostalgia for the pace, longtermism, and religious meaning of the middle ages (while recognising…
……陀思妥耶夫斯基的《卡拉马佐夫兄弟》或《罪与罚》、福楼拜的《包法利夫人》或莫泊桑的《漂亮朋友》、奥尔加·托卡尔丘克的《雅各书》、伊丽莎白·鲍恩的《心之死》、弗兰岑的《纠正》、Gaddis 的《Recognitions》、克莱尔·吉根的《寄养》（篇幅短但绝赞）（这是私人书单，绝非全部，只是一些推荐。）
…Karamazov, or Crime and Punishment, by Dostoyevsky Madame Bovary by Flaubert, or Bel-Ami by Maupassant The Book of Jacob by Olga Tokarczuk Death of the Heart by Elizabeth Bowen The Corrections by Franzen Recognitions by Gaddis Foster by Claire Keegan (short but incredible) (That's a personal list, and by no means exhaustive, just some recommendations.)
你可能会喜欢 William Gaddis。《The Recognitions》和《JR》都是信息量极大且极其复杂的小说，有着绝妙的形式创新，并对金融、艺术以及逐渐渗透进后现代心态的怀疑论有着极具预见性的审视。光是里面包含的文化典故之多……
You might like William Gaddis. The Recognitions and JR are dense and very complex novels with brilliant formal invention and prescient looks at finance, art, and skepticism bleeding into a postmodern mindset. The sheer amount of cultural references…
弗朗索瓦·拉伯雷的《巨人传》 劳伦斯·斯特恩的《项狄传》 威廉·加迪斯的《承认》

……其实是某个没那么出名的人说的。举个例子，很多人误以为是达·芬奇说的：至繁归于至简（Simplicity is the ultimate sophistication）。（这句话其实是 William Gaddis 在他的小说《The Recognitions》里写的。）
…actually said by someone lesser known. One example, widely misattributed to Leonardo da Vinci: Simplicity is the ultimate sophistication. (Those words were written by William Gaddis, in his novel The Recognitions.)
“至繁归于至简（Simplicity is the ultimate sophistication）”——达·芬奇。达·芬奇根本没说过这话——出自 William Gaddis 那本关于艺术伪造的大部头小说《The Recognitions》，有时它被认为是第一部后现代小说。在达·芬奇那个时代，即使“sophistication”（复杂/世故）这个概念存在，也显然会被当成贬义词。我想应该是乔布斯带火了……
“Simplicity is the ultimate sophistication” — Leonardo da Vinci Leonardo didn't say that—it was William Gaddis in his massive novel about art forgery called The Recognitions, sometimes thought of as the first postmodern novel. In Leonardo's time "sophistication", had the concept existed, would have seemed like an obviously bad thing. I believe it was Steve Jobs who popularized…
