內容簡介

內容簡介 一對訂婚的夫妻，因為丈夫不能接受任何以人體材料製成的衣服而大吵一架；一個少女發現自己深深迷戀著自己童年房間的窗簾；當人們為紀念自己所愛的人，居然是吃了他們，以便讓他們重生？以《便利店人間》奪下芥川獎後，成功打入國際市場，村田沙耶香的寫作手法與主題一再精進且變化，以奇異大膽、甚至令人有點不舒服的筆調寫出這本短篇小說，超現實的想像，充滿隱喻與女性觀點的故事，與現代社會背景結合，獨樹一格的文風讓讀者再次為這位作家的功力懾服。From the author of international bestseller Convenience Store Woman comes a collection of short fiction: weird, out of this world and like nothing you've read before.An engaged couple falls out over the husband's dislike of clothes and objects made from human materials; a young girl finds herself deeply enamoured with the curtain in her childhood bedroom; people honour their dead by eating them and then procreating. Published in English for the first time, this exclusive edition also includes the story that first brought Sayaka Murata international acclaim: 'A Clean Marriage', which tells the story of a happily asexual couple who must submit to some radical medical procedures if they are to conceive a longed-for child.Mixing taboo-breaking body horror with feminist revenge fables, old ladies who love each other and young women finding empathy and transformation in unlikely places, Life Ceremony is a wild ride to the outer edges of one of the most original minds in contemporary fiction.

各界推薦

各界推薦 These stories laid complete claim to me. Ominous and charming. Brilliantly sad. There is not one word wasted here. I lost significant sleep over this collection -- Kiley Reid, author of Such a Fun AgeUndoubtedly shocking... unnerving... bizarre and outrageous... Life Ceremony reminds us how fragile we - and the society we take for granted - really are ― New InternationalistStrangely believable, easy to read and hard to forget ― Guardian
