When a man's favourite elephant vanishes, the balance of his whole life is subtly upset; a couple's midnight hunger pangs drive them to hold up a McDonald's; a woman finds she is irresistible to a small green monster that burrows through her front garden; an insomniac wife wakes up to a twilight world of semi-consciousness in which anything seems possible - even death. In every one of the stories that make up The Elephant Vanishes, Murakami makes a determined assault on the normal. He has a deadpan genius for dislocating realities to uncover the surreal in the everyday, the extraordinary in the ordinary. (20021018)
##兩位譯者的風格真是截然不同,Alfred用詞比較艱澀,Jay平實通俗。有點兒像中譯本你死我活級彆的林賴之分。讀英文版的最大收獲是會看得比較仔細,幾乎要一字一句的讀,不像看中文有些細節容易滑過去。至於小說本身,喜歡的篇目還是那幾篇,不喜歡的也一樣,沒有因為語言的不同而有什麼改變。
評分##超贊
評分##村上的英譯要比中譯好讀
評分##比較喜歡"The Second Bakery Attack","The Fall of the Roman Empire, The 1881 Indian Uprising, Hitler's Invasion of Poland, And The Realm of Raging Winds","A Family Affair","The Last Lawn of the Afternoon"四篇。
評分##今晚把象的失蹤這一篇看瞭,還是感慨中英譯本讀起來的體驗相當懸殊。看到某篇評論說,消失之後該注重的問題不是why是where,我倒是覺得where也不重要,but what’s next?
