《失踪的孩子》是“那不勒斯四部曲”的第四部,小说聚焦了莉拉和埃莱娜(“我”)的壮年和晚年,为她们持续了五十多年的友谊划上了一个令人心碎的句号。

“我”为了爱情和写作,离开丈夫带着两个女儿回到了那不勒斯,不可避免地与莉拉,还有我曾想要逃离的城区再度变得亲密。“我”和莉拉甚至在同一年怀孕、生子,并经历了恐怖残暴的那不勒斯大地震,一切都分崩离析,一切又将被重建。

“我”在不自觉中卷入莉拉秘密的企图——她希望利用我的名声和写作技巧来对抗城区陈腐而猖獗的恶势力。但在经历了生命最恐怖的打击之后,莉拉选择以一种怪异夸张的方式在城区彻底将自己流放。

而“我”也将以惊人的韧性和诚实面对写作、爱情、家庭的失败。在经历了多年的自我怀疑之后,“我”决定忤逆(罔顾?)莉拉的告诫,将“我”和她一生的友谊写成一本小说,却招来了最深的背叛……

《离开的,留下的》 是埃莱娜·费兰特的“那不勒斯四部曲”的第三部,聚焦“我”(埃莱娜)和莉拉躁动、紧密相依的中年。
“我”在未婚夫彼得罗一家人的帮助下,出版了第一本小说,享受着成功的喜悦,而留在那不勒斯的莉拉却身陷贫困而卑贱的工厂生活。“我”像个骑士一样,再度介入莉拉的生活,并动用丈夫一家人的关系,让莉拉和恩佐的生活有了转机——他们成了那不勒斯地区最早学习、掌握计算机技术的人,他们顽强、坚韧的学习能力让他们开始积累了巨大的财富。
我和莉拉之间再次胜负难辨。婚后的“我”开始面临自己的创作危机,而平静的、中产阶级式的婚姻也令“我”疲惫不堪。对社会变革颇为冷淡的彼得罗希望“我”放弃作家的身份,而“我”在扮演“母亲”、“妻子”这些角色时,总是避免不了内心的分裂、紧张。
莉拉对“我”的新作品的指责更是让我产生彻底的自我怀疑:我接受的教育和拥有的知识是否只是让我的作品徒有其表,没有真正的思想,也永远无法拥有莉拉近乎粗野的表达中那些令人不安的真相。直到有一天,“我”丈夫突然将尼诺带回了家……

莉拉在结婚当天就发现婚姻根本不是她想象的那样,她的初夜几乎是一场强奸。她带着一种强大的破坏欲介入了斯特凡诺的家族生意,似乎成为了她和埃莱娜小时候都想成为的那种女人。久未有身孕的莉拉,和埃莱娜去海边度假休养。而在伊斯基亚岛的那个夏天,改变了所有人的一生……

出于对莉拉所拥有的爱情的愤怒,“我”(埃莱娜)奋力摆脱这个破败、暴力、充满宿仇的街区。“我”成了街区的第一个大学生,并和一个高级知识分子家庭的男孩订婚,甚至出版了第一本小说。“我”以胜利者的形象回到那不勒斯,却发现告别了丑陋婚姻的莉拉,在一家肉食加工厂备受屈辱地打工。

当“我”发现自己的小说,其实完全窃取了莉拉交托给“我”的秘密笔记本里那些独特的力量和灵感,“我”被迫面临一个极度痛苦的问题:“我”和莉拉,到底谁离开了,又是谁留下了?

L'amica geniale
8.6 (769 ratings) author: [意大利] 埃莱娜·费兰特 translator: 陈英 publishing house: 人民文学出版社 2017 - 1
《我的天才女友》是埃莱娜·费兰特“那不勒斯四部曲”的第一部,讲述了两个女主人公莉拉和埃莱娜的少女时代。故事一开始,已经功成名就的埃莱娜接到莉拉儿子里诺的电话,说他母亲彻底消失了。埃莱娜想起莉拉对自己命运的预言,于是她写下她们一生的故事……

莉拉和埃莱娜一起成长于那不勒斯一个破败的社区,从小形影不离,彼此信赖,但又都视对方为自己隐秘的镜子,暗暗角力。

莉拉聪明,漂亮。她可以毫不畏惧地和欺凌自己的男生对质,也可以去找人人惧怕的阿奇勒﹒卡拉奇要回被他夺走的玩具;埃莱娜既羡慕莉拉的学习天赋和超人的决断力,又一直暗暗模仿莉拉。

家人不支持莉拉继续求学,因此她到父亲和兄长苦苦维持的修鞋店帮工,又面临几个纨绔子弟的追求。埃莱娜则怀着对朋友的关爱、嫉妒和理解,独自继续学业,却始终无法面对和莉拉竞争的失落。

最终,十六岁的莉拉决定嫁给肉食店老板,但在婚宴上,她发现了丈夫的背叛。而埃莱娜也站在成人世界的入口,既为前途担忧,也因对思想前卫的尼诺产生朦胧好感而彷徨。
碎片 Douban
La frantumaglia
8.9 (109 ratings) author: [意] 埃莱娜·费兰特 translator: 陈英 publishing house: 人民文学出版社 2020 - 10
《碎片》(2016)是意大利作家埃莱娜·费兰特20 余年来的书信、访谈和散文集。作家在书中袒露了自己对写作风格和主题的探索历程,并回顾了自己经历的自我怀疑和突破,这些对话睿智地诠释了女性和家庭、神话和文化、城市和记忆,以及作家和读者的复杂关系。《碎片》既是深入费兰特的文学世界的指引,同时也是一份智性、鲜明而坚定的文学宣言。
全书按年代分为三辑:第一部分“碎片1991—2003”是作家和出版人的书信往来,重点讨论了《烦人的爱》中母亲的身体与写作的隐秘联系,也收录了她和导演就该小说的电影改编进行的细致商榷,还包含了作家从未被发表过的一些创作片段;第二部分“拼图2003—2007”收录了作家和导演就《被遗弃的日子》的电影改编进行的往来书信,以及她在前三本小说中探寻的不同方向;第三部分“书信2011—2016”收录了自“那不勒斯四部曲”出版以来作家接受的部分书面采访,读者可以窥见作家对这部小说的解读,以及对女性写作的历史和任务的犀利看法。
本书标题“碎片”(frantumaglia)来自作者的母亲常用的方言词汇,指遭遇矛盾和混乱的个体体会到的痛苦,但作家将其发展为自己的文学理念,并尝试在多年的创作中释放这个词汇背后的解放力量:作家要利用这种旋涡般的力量,直面失控的风险,抵达令自己、令读者陌生的真实经验。

The Name Of The Rose Douban

The year is 1327. Franciscans in a wealthy Italian abbey are suspected of heresy, and Brother William of Baskerville arrives to investigate.

He collects evidence, deciphers secret symbols and coded manuscripts, and digs into the eerie labyrinth of the abbey where extraordinary things are happening under the cover of night. A spectacular popular and critical success, "The Name of the Rose" is not only a narrative of a murder investigation but an astonishing chronicle of the Middle Ages.

Pinocchio Douban
author: Carlo Collodi translator: M. A. Murray publishing house: Penguin Classics 2002 - 4
Pinocchio plays pranks upon the kindly woodcarver Geppetto, is duped by the Fox and the Cat, kills the pedantic Talking Cricket, and narrowly escapes death, with the help of the blue-haired Fairy. A wooden puppet without strings, Pinocchio is a tragicomic figure, a poor, illiterate, naughty peasant boy who has few choices in life but usually chooses to shirk his responsibilities and get into trouble. This sly and imaginative novel, alternately catastrophic and ridiculous, takes Pinocchio from one predicament to the next, and finally to an optimistic, if uncertain, ending. In his compelling introduction, Jack Zipes places Pinocchio within the traditions of the oral folk tale and the literary fairy tale, showing how Collodi subverts those traditions while raising questions about "how we 'civilize' children in uncivilized times."

Queimada (1969) WikiData IMDb Douban TMDB
Queimada
director: 吉洛·彭泰科沃 actor: 马龙·白兰度 / 埃瓦里斯托·马奎兹
other title: 奎马达政变 / Burn!
In the 1830's, the island of Quemada in the Antilles is a Portuguese colony - that is, until an English agent provocateur arrives and inspires the black slaves to rise and expel the colonial authorities. However, as is always the way with revolutions, a group of middle-class power brokers seizes political control and the people's aspirations are betrayed.
Ten years pass, and the sugar industry now requires peace and stability on Quemada. The continuing guerilla campaign by the dispossessed blacks is harming profits. The very same English adventurer is once more despatched to the island, this time to hunt down and eradicate the revolutionaries he created.
Marlon Brando plays Sir William Walker in his best Fletcher Christian English accent and a blonde wig with a life of its own. His is a thoughtful performance, putting across the complexity of the man, a character who is undoubtedly cynical and unscrupulous, but who is also an emotional man and something of a political philosopher. He is certainly effective at what he does.
The direction of Gillo Pontecorvo is somewhat erratic at times. There are points where the narrative is confused, and the gold robbery which drives the plot somehow got left on the cutting-room floor. Jose Dolores' rise to power is the most significant event in the story, but we see nothing of it. During the voodoo carnival, two of the participants are wearing 20th-century soccer shorts. The film's central pivot, the passage of ten years between Walker's two visits to the island, is handled very sketchily by means of a few incongruous London scenes and a voice-over narration.
But there are good things, too. When Santiago's widow hauls her husband's body away, the masonry of the fort stands as a silent metaphor of colonial power - harsh, overbearing and sterile. Brando has some fine speeches, musing on the nature of political legitimism. The fire scenes are visually arresting (though it would have sufficed to have two or three guerillas being shot as they emerged from the burning sugar cane: seven or eight is labouring the point), and Walker is positively luminous against the tortured black shapes of the charred forest, showing in symbolic form that this man thrives on the suffering of the blacks, and that destruction is his natural element.
