SCHTICK
Book ID/图书代码: 11650012B56510
English Summary/英文概要: Schtick is the tale of Jewish assimilation and its discontents; a sweeping exposition on Jewish-American culture in all its bawdy, contradictory, and inventive glory. Exploring how Jews shed minority status in America – in his own family and in culture and politics at large – poet Kevin Coval shows us a people’s transformation out of diaspora, landing on both sides of the color line.
Chinese Summary/中文概要: 《滑稽动作》讲述了犹太人的同化过程以及他们对此的不满;本书对犹太裔美国人的文化进行了全面的揭露,既有其中的污秽猥琐、矛盾对立的一面,也有他们在发明创造方面取得的光辉荣耀。在探讨犹太人如何维护少数名族的地位身份的同时——既以他自己的家庭为例,亦从整个政治文化上进行出发——诗人Kevin Coval向我们说明了犹太民族如何摆脱离散,同时在种族界限的两边立足。(XMM)
Awards/获奖情况:对L-vis Lives 和 Kevin Coval的评价:
“这部作品英勇大胆地揭露了思想道德上肮脏混乱——作者用十二个回合讲述与艺术盗窃者的“化身”所进行谨慎较量。Coval运用黑色幽默、智力上的热情以及情感上的苛刻赋予这些碎片生命,以讽刺暗示真实人物。时间到了!”亚当.曼斯巴赫,Go the F**k to Sleep的作者 “这是一本激进而直白的作品集……书中诗歌的思想大胆无畏,基于充分的历史依据,把对社会的不满发泄出来。Coval在暴力而邪恶的种族主义上表现出正直,以及作品的真实性和创造力炽热而奔放。”——《学术研究》美国图书馆协会《书单》杂志
“他是我最喜欢的诗人之一。”茅斯•达夫
“Kevin Coval的作品给世界文学带来了一个全新而闪耀的反抗之声。”斯特兹•特克尔
“一本先知作品……一个预言家……他能够用一首诗伤人,也能用一首诗治愈伤痛。”《普罗维登斯日报》
“Coval最伟大的力量存在于他那充满节奏、言辞优美的散文中,以及无论付出何种代价也要阐释真理的意愿。”URB
For L-vis Lives and Kevin Coval:
“This book is bold, brave and morally messy – twelve rounds of knock-down, drag-out shadowboxing against a shapeshifter. The dark humor, intellectual fervor, and emotional rigor Coval brings to bear animates these pieces, turns caricatures to characters, implicates us all. It’s about time.”
Adam Mansbach, author, Go the F**k to Sleep
“A radically candid collection ... daring, historically grounded, and socially cathartic poems. ... Coval’s air-clearing honesty about violent and insidious racism and authenticity and creativity is blazing and liberating.” Donna Seaman, for the American Library Association’s Booklist magazine
“One of my favorite poets.” Mos Def
“Kevin Coval is a new, glowing voice in the world of literature.” Studs Terkel
“A prophet ... a tour-de-force ... he can soothe and scathe, hurt and heal, in the course of a single poem.”
Providence Journal
“Coval’s greatest strength is his rhythmic, beautiful prose and his willingness to speak truth to power, no matter what the personal cost.” URB
