CHINA

Rate this book
CHINA,昌南也,為製瓷之地,宋代之後易名為景德鎮,西人如是稱呼瓷器,又如是稱呼中國。

可見瓷器不只是用火和土燒成的?更是血與淚。
好瓷凝聚的可是情感。無有情感,無有瓷魂。
而瓷器與愛情是這世間最容易破碎的兩樣東西。

故事從十八世紀的西方開始,一位礦物學者愛上有夫之婦,於是以槍戰決鬥斷定愛情結果,孤單的學者死裡逃生,傷心之餘,他出發到中國,邈遠的東方,為男爵尋找製瓷祕密。漸漸地,他深入這片廣曠的土地,以其科學知識與習得的中文,甚至進入皇宮內苑,成為皇上的寵臣。他沉溺於瓷器與愛情的找尋,並誓為其奉獻生命……

陳玉慧奔途於台灣、北京、慕尼黑三地,以「那個站在東西之間的人」,將靈魂與血汗如投入瓷窯熾熱紅火中,所虔意鍛製煉情煉字煉心之絕美長篇。

整個來說,就是一位騙吃騙喝的日耳曼痴漢西來中國的日記。這位痴漢把了別人的老婆,決鬥被放了一槍,只好跑到中國,憑著一口流利中文以及一點礦物學專業,得以混進乾隆皇宮。然後有一天,走在路上,突然又被丘比特打了一槍,來個一見鍾情,從此死纏濫打上一位素未謀面的貴族女子。欸,口口聲聲愛得死去活來的故鄉情婦就此拋到九霄雲外去啦。

總結:跨攏某,某呷意。瓷與愛,主題紊亂,書後跋辯解更形牽強。有趣的是,作者書末玩了幾個梗,包括梁祝,包括巫蠱之亂。

Just trying too hard. Talked more about jade( lol very narcissistic with her name it’s THAT obvious) than China itself, despite the fact that she explained the relationship between them. Maybe I’m biased.
