鱼丽之宴
木心说，“自作多情”和“自作无情”都是可笑的，“以后我还想改名……”
依据木心晚年定稿，《鱼丽之宴》收入木心历年来的 “答好友问”与“答记者问”等文章，并配有作家影像、创作手迹等，包括《江楼夜谈》《海峡传声》《雪夕酬酢》《仲夏开轩》，以及披露木心1983年至1998年去国旅美“航程纪要”的《迟迟告白》，此外，《战后嘉年华》还回溯了“个人的青春期”，《有朋自西方来》则亮相了木心晚年“珍贵的文友们”。
木心自序，《鱼丽之宴》是我“答客问”之类中的某些选篇，触及的话题虽只限于文学、艺术，因为也自有一番纷繁，故美其名曰“鱼丽”……如此则原想叙叙人生上的利钝成败，结果变成了一场酒酣耳热的飨宴。

About the author
Mu Xin
33 books25 followersMu Xin (1927-2011) was the pen name of a renowned Chinese diasporan writer and artist who once lived in the New York area. Mu Xin was born in Wuzhen, South China, into a wealthy aristocratic family with business interests in Shanghai. He was among the last generation to receive a classical education in the literati tradition, but he was also exposed through voluminous reading to the highest achievements of Western art and culture.
From 1947 to 1949, Mu Xin attended Shanghai Institute of the Arts. From 1949 until 1982, when he came to the United States, MuXin lived in China. Although he wrote profusely in that period, all of his earlier manuscripts were confiscated and destroyed during the Cultural Revolution. Since 1982, MuXin published twelve books of fiction, prose, and poetry (in Chinese) and contributed to literary columns in Chinese journals and newspapers outside the PRC. Among the Chinese diaspora, MuXin’s works have attracted an intense following.
Few Chinese writers in modern history have as firm a mastery of the Chinese cultural and linguistic heritage as MuXin did. Innovatively combining fiction, sanwen (a Chinese genre which blends characteristics of the essay, fiction, and poetry), and philosophical reflections, MuXin’s writing is both profoundly Chinese and reminiscent of the internalization and unconventionality of Western modern masters. In addition to his literary accomplishments, MuXin was also a well recognized artist whose paintings are preserved, among other places, at Yale University and Harvard University Art Galleries.

终于看完啦。毕业前和网友见面，她送我这本书，这次在回广州的路上看完了，嘿嘿。看不太懂很多东西，很多东西离我太远，远到失去求知欲。但在看懂的范围内的东西都写得很好。
