为什么值得读
- 全程使用自创语言叙事呈现出独特的陌生化美感
- 讲述后末日世界中男孩旅程且诗意深情
- 故事构想非凡且带有强烈的末世废土氛围
一本扣人心弦的后末日小说,全书通篇采用一种高度退化的后英语写就,读者在阅读探索小说的过程中不得不自行破译其中的语言。

拉塞尔·霍班的《里德利·沃克》(Riddley Walker)不算冷门,但也绝谈不上大火。这是一部用虚构语言写就的后启示录小说(想想《发条橙》)。它充满诗意且极具感染力地记录了一个男孩在……世界中的旅程。
Riddley Walker by Russell Hoban is not unknown but not hugely popular. Post apocalyptic novel written in a made up language (think Clockwork Orange). Poetic and deeply moving account of a boy's journey through a world…
前三名:沃尔特·特维斯的《知更鸟》(Mockingbird);拉塞尔·霍班的《里德利·沃克》;伊迪丝·沃顿的《月亮之吻》(Glimpses of the Moon)。其他一些心头好:彼得·海勒的《狗之星》(The Dog Stars);史蒂文·布鲁斯特的《地狱称王》(To Reign In Hell);马克斯·巴里的《机器狂人》(Machine Man);唐·温斯洛的《破晓巡航》(The Dawn Patrol);还有……
Top three: Mockingbird, by Walter Tevis; Riddley Walker, by Russell Hoban; Glimpses of the Moon, by Edith Wharton Some other favorites: The Dog Stars, by Peter Heller; To Reign In Hell, by Steven Brust; Machine Man, by Max Barry; The Dawn Patrol, by Don Winslow; The…
……唐·德里罗的《白噪音》。整体上是个极棒的故事,读它帮我正视了自己对死亡的恐惧以及这种恐惧对我造成的影响。补充一下:噢,鉴于好像还没人提过它们……拉塞尔·霍班的《里德利·沃克》,还有约翰·加德纳的《格兰戴尔》(Grendel)。它们对我的影响没那么具体,所以很难解释,但都是 HN 上偶尔会被提及的不可多得的神作。另一本让我惊为天人的……
…Noise, by Don Delillo. It's a great story in general and reading it helped me acknowledge my fear of death and how it affected me. Edit: oh, and since I don't think anyone else has mentioned them yet ... Riddley Walker by Russell Hoban, and Grendel by John Gardner. Their impact on me was less specific so harder to explain, but they're great books that get mentioned on HN now and then. Another one that kind of blew my…
……无论用什么标准衡量,Dau 都是部经典;还有 Cherryh 的《下站》(Downbelow Station)以及她绝大部分其他作品;霍雷肖·霍恩布洛尔系列;《新日之书》;《严厉的月亮》;《莱博维茨的赞歌》;《海伯利安》;《里德利·沃克》;《盲视》……我能一口气念上一整夜。列着列着,我意识到自己清单里落下了陀思妥耶夫斯基。保罗·柯艾略大概也应该有一席之地。
…any measure, Dau is a classic, Downbelow Station and most of the rest of Cherryh's catalog, Horatio Hornblower, The Book of the New Sun, The Moon is a Harsh Mistress, A Canticle for Leibowitz, Hyperion, Riddley Walker, Blindsight... I could keep going all night. Listing these off, I realize that I forgot Dostoevsky in my list. Paulo Coelho should probably be there too.
一个戏路极宽、驾驭自如的作家,《克莱因泽特》(Kleinzeit)将荒诞拔高到了极致,《里德利·沃克》是一部神级后启示录小说,《老鼠和他的孩子》(The Mouse and His Child)则是一部深刻而不失质朴的童书,讲述发条玩具寻找自动上弦秘密的旅程,而这还只是我脱口而出的几部……
A very broad and versatile writer, Kleinzeit is nth level absurdist, Riddley Walker is a superb post apocalytic novel, The Mouse and His Child is a simple yet deep childrens book about windup toys on the hunt for secret of becoming self winding, and that's just a few off the top of my…
我最爱的书之一,那部既令人难忘又诗意盎然的反乌托邦小说《里德利·沃克》,与现实中肯特郡的地名有着特别有趣的关联,因为这位(美国)作者拉塞尔·霍班用他那精妙绝伦的扭曲语言把玩了这些名字:Bollock Stoans 对应 Bullockstone……
One of my favourite books, the haunting and poetic dystopian Riddley Walker has a particularly interesting relationship with its real-life Kent locations, as the (American) author Russell Hoban played in his beautiful language twisting with their names: Bollock Stoans - Bullockstone…
