内容简介

The Vegetarian meets Heathers in this darkly funny, seductively strange novel about a lonely graduate student drawn into a clique of rich girls who seem to move and speak as one.

"We were just these innocent girls in the night trying to make something beautiful. We nearly died. We very nearly did, didn't we?"

Samantha Heather Mackey couldn't be more of an outsider in her small, highly selective MFA program at New England's Warren University. A scholarship student who prefers the company of her dark imagination to that of most people, she is utterly repelled by the rest of her fiction writing cohort--a clique of unbearably twee rich girls who call each other "Bunny," and are often found entangled in a group hug so tight they become one.

But everything changes when Samantha receives an invitation to the Bunnies' fabled "Smut Salon," and finds herself inexplicably drawn to their front door--ditching her only friend, Ava, a caustic art school dropout, in the process. As Samantha plunges deeper and deeper into the sinister yet saccharine world of the Bunny cult and starts to take part in their ritualistic off-campus "Workshop" where they magically conjure their monstrous creations, the edges of reality begin to blur, and her friendships with Ava and the Bunnies are brought into deadly collision.

A spellbinding, down-the-rabbit-hole tale of loneliness and belonging, creativity and agency, and friendship and desire, Bunny is the dazzlingly original second book from this author.

    她母亲亡故,父亲长年躲债在外,在研究生院学习写作,唯一的朋友是一个对一切都充满鄙夷和嘲讽的辍学生,无法融入其他研究生组成的小团体,情感上生活上写作上,都与周遭环境格格不入,连老师们也不喜欢她怪诞的写作风格。她渴望着,尝试着,失败的一塌糊涂。天地间孤零零一蜉蝣。读到最后发现,她唯一的朋友是她在极端孤独的境况下幻想出来的。你独自一人站在此地,艳羡地望着彼处,往前踏出去一步,如同撞了南墙头破血流,眼前的天地踏不进去,身后的世界分崩离析。你该何去何从?作者的书写非常诡异且华丽,想象诡谲,有些段落,作者是在嗑嗨的状态下写出来的吗?不可思议。06-07

    读起来有点晕,前半段还比较好理解,被小团体的排挤霸凌,samantha在接到小团体突然伸出的橄榄枝后,一度试图讨好她们,泯灭自己的个性,成为bunnies中的bunny。后面画风越来越clut,bunny们不只是叽叽喳喳的mean Girls,还拥有神秘力量,可以让兔子爆炸,重组拼凑身体。Samantha最好的朋友ava竟然只是她根据天鹅想象出来的形象,后期出现的max,好像是Samantha用意念将鹿化为人形,用他的魅力让小团体分崩离析。后面的情节实在是游离于现实之外,变得暗黑魔幻。有点理解无能07-20

    3.5/5 I felt like I could relate to the last part of the book, but overall it was more like a fever dream, not too insightful.08-09
