摘要

本文拟从废物研究的角度解读加里·施特因加特著名的小说《超级悲伤的真爱故事》(2010),这部小说横跨反乌托邦和讽刺,描绘了一个准当代的美国。通过两个主要人物之间有问题的关系,施特因加特的小说阐明了全球化对代际破裂的美国社会的广泛影响,在许多方面也代表了整个第一世界。社会学家、文化评论家和哲学家,如齐格蒙·鲍曼、乌尔里希·贝克、韩炳哲、约翰·斯坎兰和苏珊·桑塔格,他们已经将全球化时代强大的外在力量如何塑造、挑战和威胁作为理论,本文旨在探讨《超级悲伤的真爱故事》如何展示一系列相互关联的“浪费模式”。这是作者推动当代美国在政治和金融、公民和社会伦理、文化和语言甚至生物研究方面的极端讽刺/反乌托邦的结果。

Welcome to America 2.0”: Reading Waste in Gary Shteyngart’s Super Sad True Love Story
This article proposes a reading of Gary Shteyngart’s celebrated novel Super Sad True Love Story (2010), a text that straddles the dystopian and the satiric in its depiction of a quasicontemporary America, from the perspective of Waste Studies. Through the problematic relationship between its two main characters, Shteyngart’s novel articulates the wide-ranging effects of globalization on a generationally-ruptured American society, that in many ways stands also for the First World at large. Drawing from sociologists, cultural critics, and philosophers like Zygmunt Bauman, Ulrich Beck, Byung-Chul Han, John Scanlan and Susan Sontag, who have theorized how individuals today are molded, challenged and threatened by powerful extrinsic forces in the era of globalization, this article aims to explore how Super Sad True Love Story showcases a range of mutually interrelated “modes of waste,” resulting from the writer’s pushing to a satiric/dystopic extreme contemporary American practices in politics and finance, citizenship and social ethics, culture and language, and even biological research.
