简介:《真相大白》(Everything is Illuminated)讲述了一个年轻男子在乌克兰一座小镇上寻找一个曾经救过他祖父的妇女的故事,这座小镇由于受到纳粹的入侵便从地图上消失了。
世人皆知,就在半个多世纪前的欧洲,智慧的犹太人经历了空前的浩劫。无数族人惨遭纳粹铁蹄的蹂躏与践踏。不过也有少数有幸者在他人的全力帮助和掩护下得以逃生。
美籍犹太人乔纳森(伊利亚伍德)的祖父便是这场浩劫中的幸存者之一。多年来,老人家一直将寻找当年的救命恩人视为毕生最大的愿望。但年岁已高的他无奈之下在临终前的最后一刻将此心愿留给了乔纳森。乔纳森手捧历经沧桑已经发黄的老照片前往祖父获救的东欧国家乌克兰,寻找那个在第二次世界大战的烽火中几近消失的小镇,替祖父找寻当年的救命恩人。起初,乔纳森结识了当地两位可谓古怪异常的向导亚历克斯(尤金哈茨)和脾气暴躁的老头鲍里斯。
自此,三个性格迥异的家伙开始了一段奇异之旅。而且,那个操一口东欧风格的古怪英语的亚历克斯对这位来自美国的帅哥以及美国流行文化的无限崇拜之情。不过,亚历克斯对乔纳森的寻亲之旅却没有帮上多大的忙。而那位顽固的老头子却为乔纳森准备了一条可以引路的狗。但似乎这一切都没有给乔纳森的寻亲计划带了多大的进展。不断的困境,不断的文化冲突以及渐渐的磨合,使得三个人终于找到了可以相互了解共通之处,三个人之间也逐渐有了默契可言。这次寻亲之旅也最终成了改变三个人命运的心灵之旅……

The simplest thing would be to describe Everything Is Illuminated, Jonathan Safran Foer's accomplished debut, as a novel about the Holocaust. It is, but that really fails to do justice to the sheer ambition of this book. The main story is a grimly familiar one. A young Jewish American--who just happens to be called Jonathan Safran Foer--travels to the Ukraine in the hope of finding the woman who saved his grandfather from the Nazis. He is aided in his search by Alex Perchov, a nave Ukrainian translator, Alex's grandfather (also called Alex), and a flatulent mongrel dog named Sammy Davis Jr. Jr. On their journey through Eastern Europe's obliterated landscape they unearth facts about the Nazi atrocities and the extent of Ukrainian complicity that have implications for Perchov as well as Safran Foer. This narrative is not, however, recounted from (the character) Jonathan Safran Foer's perspective. It is relayed through a series of letters that Alex sends to Foer. These are written in the kind of broken Russo-English normally reserved for Bond villains or Latka from Taxi. Interspersed between these letters are fragments of a novel by Safran Foer--a wonderfully imagined, almost magical realist, account of life in the shtetl before the Nazis destroyed it. These are in turn commented on by Alex, creating an additional metafictional angle to the tale.
If all this sounds a little daunting, don't be put off; Safran Foer is an extremely funny as well as intelligent writer who combines some of the best Jewish folk yarns since Isaac Bashevis Singer with a quite heartbreaking meditation on love, friendship, and loss.
Illuminated received overwhelming acclaim on its initial release, not only from major publications, but also from many well-known authors, including John Updike, Joyce Carol Oates, Salman Rushdie, Isabel Allende, Russell Banks, and Dale Peck. The Times' review stated that the book was "a work of genius," that Foer had "staked his claim for literary greatness," and that "after it, things will never be the same."
