朱利安•巴恩斯(1946— ),英国当代著名作家。父母皆为法语教师,哥哥在牛津大学教授哲学,妻子帕特•凯伐纳是著名的文学经纪人。巴恩斯毕业于牛津大学,曾参与《牛津英语辞典》的编纂工作,做过多年的文学编辑和评论家。
“聪明”是巴恩斯作品的一贯标识。八十年代他以突破性之作《福楼拜的鹦鹉》入围布克奖决选,跻身英国文坛一流作家之列。此后,获各大文学奖项无数,三进布克奖决选,并于2011年凭借《终结的感觉》赢得大奖,同年获大卫•柯恩英国文学终身成就奖。
巴恩斯也深得法国读者的好感,他是唯一一位同时获得法国梅第奇奖和费米娜奖的作家,并先后荣获法国文化部颁发的文学艺术骑士、军官、司令勋章,堪称在法国最受欢迎的英国作家之一。

The Lemon Table 2025 pdf epub mobi 电子书
本书是布克文学奖获得者朱利安·巴恩斯的短篇集,在诺贝尔文学奖越来越像一个老官僚,专注于搜求不同文化中早已成名的大家,以给他们发出终身成就奖时,布克文学奖似乎更像是当代小说的风向标。两点让它特别有趣,首先,它包容了更多的文体试验,其次,它将类型小说与严肃文学...
评分朱利安•巴恩斯大名早就听过,然而说的多看得少,终于打开了这本几年前就买好的《柠檬桌子》,网观评价似乎不怎么样,远不如《福楼拜的鹦鹉》,当然后面这本也是在必看list上的,然而终于看完,觉得颇有点震动。 非常非常的喜欢《马茨•伊斯拉埃尔松的故事》,已经很久没...
图书标签: JulianBarnes 英国 小说 英国文学 英文原版 英式风趣 短篇 Barnes
In his widely acclaimed new collection of stories, Julian Barnes addresses what is perhaps the most poignant aspect of the human condition: growing old.
The characters in The Lemon Table are facing the ends of their lives–some with bitter regret, others with resignation, and others still with defiant rage. Their circumstances are just as varied as their responses. In 19th-century Sweden, three brief conversations provide the basis for a lifetime of longing. In today’s England, a retired army major heads into the city for his regimental dinner–and his annual appointment with a professional lady named Babs. Somewhere nearby, a devoted wife calms (or perhaps torments) her ailing husband by reading him recipes.
In stories brimming with life and our desire to hang on to it one way or another, Barnes proves himself by turns wise, funny, clever, and profound–a writer of astonishing powers of empathy and invention.

评分Barnes的短篇总有那么几篇让人啃不下去、完全进入不了状态,这应该是我读过最没感觉的一本Barnes。
