具体描述

内容简介

《冷血》(英文:In Cold Blood)是美国作家楚门·卡波特于1966出版的小说,详述1959年一起位于堪萨斯州霍尔库姆,优渥农人赫伯特·克拉特一家遭灭门的残暴凶杀案。卡波特获悉此事后,与好友作家哈波·李决定一同前往当地进行调查。他们访问了当地居民与该案的调查人员,摘记了上千页的纪录。凶手狄克与贝利在犯案后不久被逮捕,卡波特随后耗尽六年心血著成此书。《冷血》被公认是非虚构小说鼻祖及新新闻主义先驱,同时也成了卡波特的经典代表作之一。

Controversial and compelling, In Cold Blood reconstructs the murder in 1959 of a Kansas farmer, his wife and both their children. Truman Capote's comprehensive study of the killings and subsequent investigation explores the circumstances surrounding this terrible crime and the effect it had on those involved. At the centre of his study are the amoral young killers Perry Smith and Dick Hickcock, who, vividly drawn by Capote, are shown to be reprehensible yet entirely and frighteningly human.

The book that made Capote's name, In Cold Blood is a seminal work of modern prose, a remarkable synthesis of journalistic skill and powerfully evocative narrative.

作者简介

杜鲁门?卡波特是美国文学史上著名的南方文学作家,出生于路易西安那州,成长于阿拉巴马州,与另一名同样来自南方的作家田纳西?威廉姆斯(Tennessee Williams)齐名。卡波特九岁搬至纽约市,从小在文学方面就崭露头角。他记忆力极佳,年纪很小就能写出超龄的文章。不但常在校刊发表作品,也揽获了不少作文比赛的首奖。十七岁从高中辍学,随后进入《纽约客》(New Yorker)打工,最终也成了《纽约客》的专栏作家。他最著名的作品之一为发表于1958年的《蒂凡尼早餐》(Breakfast at Tiffany's),这部小说于1961年被好莱坞改编成电影。
然而真正奠定卡波特文坛地位的作品则是发表于1966年的《冷血杀手》(In Cold Blood)一书。 卡波特是否真为非虚构小说的开山鼻祖,文坛争论许久,但可以肯定的是《冷血杀手》的写作手法与卡波特本身的文学才气影响了许多知名的后辈作家。如我们熟悉的村上春树就屡次推崇卡波特影响自己至深,《地下铁事件》一书里采用的报导文学手法很容易让人联想到《冷血杀手》。 1965年《冷血杀手》在纽约客上连载,1966年正式出版,从此盘踞了畅销排行首位长达一整年,售出了数百万册。隔年改编为同名电影,卡波特名利双收。
卡波特是一名同性恋者,热爱参加各式”上流社会”的聚会。他言辞风趣辛辣、妙语如珠,在纽约的名流派对圈是相当活跃的人物。然而他也有着重度酒瘾与药瘾,写出《冷血杀手》后几乎再没有像样的作品问世。也许糟糕的身体状况钳制了他的写作才华,晚年的荒淫纵欲与不知节制,使卡波特与许多曾才华洋溢到不可一世的艺术家一样,人生舞台结束得并不精彩。 1984年八月一晚卡波特因用药过度猝死于一名女性友人家里,享年五十九岁。

Truman Capote was born in New Orleans in 1925 and was raised in various parts of the south, his family spending winters in New Orleans and summers in Alabama and New Georgia. By the age of fourteen he had already started writing short stories, some of which were published. He left school when he was fifteen and subsequently worked for the New Yorker which provided his first - and last - regular job. Following his spell with the New Yorker, Capote spent two years on a Louisiana farm where he wrote Other Voices, Other Rooms (1948). He lived, at one time or another, in Greece, Italy, Africa and the West Indies, and travelled in Russia and the Orient. He is the author of many highly praised books, including A Tree of Night and Other Stories (1949), The Grass Harp (1951), Breakfast at Tiffany's (1958), In Cold Blood (1965), which immediately became the centre of a storm of controversy on its publication, Music for Chameleons (1980) and Answered Prayers (1986), all of which are published by Penguin. Truman Capote died in August 1984.

精彩书评

**"There's got to be something wrong with somebody who'd do a thing like that." This is Perry Edward Smith, talking about himself. "Deal me out, baby... I'm a normal." This is Richard Eugene Hickock, talking about himself. They're as sick a pair as Leopold and Loeb and together they killed a mother, a father, a pretty seventeen year old and her brother, none of whom they'd seen before, in cold blood. A couple of days before they had bought a 100 foot rope to garrote them - enough for ten people if necessary. This small pogrom took place in Holcomb, Kansas, a lonesome town on a flat, limitless landscape: a depot, a store, a cafe, two filling stations, 270 inhabitants. The natives refer to it as "out there." It occurred in 1959 and Capote has spent five years, almost all of the time which has since elapsed, in following up this crime which made no sense, had no motive, left few clues - Just a footprint and a remembered conversation. Capote's alternating dossier Shifts from the victims, the Clutter family, to the boy who had loved Nancy Clutter, and her best friend, to the neighbors, and to the recently paroled perpetrators: Perry, with a stunted child's legs and a changeling's face, and Dick, who had one squinting eye but a "smile that works." They had been cellmates at the Kansas State Penitentiary where another prisoner had told them about the Clutters - he'd hired out once on Mr. Clutter's farm and thought that Mr. Clutter was perhaps rich. And this is the lead which finally broke the case after Perry and Dick had drifted down to Mexico, back to the midwest, been seen in Kansas City, and were finally picked up in Las Vegas. The last, even more terrible chapters, deal with their confessions, the law man who wanted to see them hanged, back to back, the trial begun in 1960, the post-ponements of the execution, and finally the walk to "The Corner" and Perry's soft-spoken words - "It would be meaningless to apologize for what I did. Even inappropriate. But I do. I apologize."... It's a magnificent Job - this American tragedy - with the incomparable Capote touches throughout. There may never have been a perfect crime, but if there ever has been a perfect reconstruction of one, surely this must be it. (Kirkus Reviews)

06年,好莱坞将杜鲁门•卡波特写作《冷血》的经历搬上了银幕。39岁的菲利普•霍夫曼凭借对卡波特极富层次感的诠释,获得了这一年奥斯卡的最佳男主角奖。

  在书中,卡波特为佩里这个人付出了自己的感情,在现实中又轻轻的一转身,视佩里的死为自己的解脱。有可能那是因为他也有想在自己身上摆脱的,令他自己厌恶的东西。世界上真正的冷酷不是不懂得,是懂得,然后冷静的注视并离去。因此我迷恋卡波特。当然,也可能象他们说的那样,卡波特只不过是利用佩里的友谊为自己写书,人性总是即复杂又简单。对别人的理解有时不过是一张永远不会兑现的空头支票。

  也许是相似的童年经历,同样充斥着酗酒、自杀、暴力的家庭环境,卡波特和佩里随着谈话的深入,彼此产生了一种奇妙的联结,两个来自不同世界的人在某个关键点发生了交融。不同的人生际遇,不同的社会地位总是把看似生活在同一片土地上的人们割裂成不同的区域,而这不同区域的偶尔相交往往会带来尴尬和不稳定。正如卡波特说的,他和佩里生活在同一间屋子,不同的是佩里走向了后门而他选择了前门。在没有扯动到敏感的神经时,佩里是个自认为富有才情,诗意而浪漫的人,但由于不可回避的过往,他对自己充满了强烈而不可抗拒的自卑,从而通过进一步的自我塑造、自我恭维去缓解自卑带来的焦虑,却由此陷入一个循环的泥沼。忙碌穿梭于上流社会的交际应酬中,沉湎与酒精、药物,嬉笑怒骂、玩世不恭的卡波特同样利用他夸张的言辞、特立独行的作风来掩饰自己身后的阴影。两人的这一点具有致命的相似。通过电影我们不难发现,当调查进行到最后,卡波特和佩里之间产生了强烈的依赖,你收起冰冷的面孔,我去掉浮夸的伪装,我们其实不分彼此。

评分

  如果事情到这里转向卡波特积极奔走为佩里上诉,付出所有争取这位“朋友”或者说同类的生命,那么,这本书应当不会是《冷血》这个名字。再多的相似也不能掩盖他们之间的巨大鸿沟,卡波特,一位著名作家,佩里,被控一级谋杀的死囚,这两者之间能达成和谐交融全无可能。对于卡波特来说,终期创作的全部过程,他同佩里之间都不是纯粹的相互抚慰,这其中始终掺杂着强烈的利用意味,以至于最后终于走到了书和佩里,二者只能存一的地步,最后一个句点划下的时刻也就是佩里悲惨一生结束的时刻,这恐怕是卡波特未曾料到的。冷血作为书名,乍看之下是对这起凶案的描述,实则却成为了卡波特的人生写照。卡波特充斥着虚伪、欺骗和名利的人生本质上又和佩里悲惨痛苦的生活有什么不同呢。

  原因可以解释结果,却不能为结果负责,这就是人生的残酷吧?
