Those who know me know that I am mentally disturbed, truly. Of course, I always blame the society and a unhappy childhood. Sometimes I wonder if it also has got something to do with my early-formed habbit of reading. As a child, I read many books, and ser...
评分除了文笔实在是太棒,这小说给我印象最深的就是各种人物关系,列一下。 1.Mr.Stevens和Lord Darlington的关系:纯粹的传统的英国式的 2.Mr.Stevens和Mr.Farraday的关系:英美冲突,dignity与banter的冲突 3.Mr.Stevens和Miss.Kenton的关系:one is too restrained, one is t...
评分《长日留痕》,2017年诺贝尔文学奖获得者石黑一雄代表作,小说总共18万字,他的语言很好读,情节简单,第一遍看基本上没有遇到什么难懂的文字,但这部小说的玄机就在于越读越觉得故事讲得非常巧妙,而且内容丰富,从各个方面都可以解读。 第一,石黑一雄选择英国男管家史蒂文...

The Remains of the Day is a profoundly compelling portrait of the perfect English butler and of his fading, insular world postwar England. At the end of his three decades of service at Darlington Hall, Stevens embarks on a country drive, during which he looks back over his career to reassure himself that he has served humanity by serving ;a great gentleman. ; But lurking in his memory are doubts about the true nature of Lord Darlington's ;greatness ; and graver doubts about his own faith in the man he served. A tragic, spiritual portrait of a perfect English butler and his reaction to his fading insular world in post-war England. A wonderful, wonderful book.
Elegant English and silent sorrow.
评分Elegant English and silent sorrow.
评分竟然没有标注?难以置信。老管家已成了unreliable narrator的标志,但事实是他可能只是一个fallible narrator
评分旧日英伦绅士的挽歌,以及失败人生之必然。开始读起来有点无聊的碎碎念竞勾勒出如此有血有肉的英伦绅士形象。那种尊严框架里极度的敬业忠诚,以及必然的局限性让我不禁想起日本。也许是我读过的小说里文笔最克制最收敛最不加判断的。
评分He seems to have no personality, no self, beyond the qualities neccessary for his position. This is because for Stevens, being a butler is not merely a job, it is the core of his identity. At the end of the book, however, he realizes that he has sacrificed his humanity in the name of duty and dignity.
