The Emotions by Jean-Philippe Toussaint — the folly of futurology
一部關于愛與失序的情感編年史
The Belgian’s latest novel, set against a backdrop of recent events in Europe, ponders philosophical questions such as, Do we really want to know what is in store for us?
小說以2016年英國脫歐為背景,通過一位未來學家的視角,審視預測未來的徒勞與個人情感的持久力量。在非線性的敘事中,政治動蕩與私人記憶交織,探討了在一個理性失序的時代,情感如何成為更真實的坐標。
