Susanna Clarke was born in Nottingham in 1959. A nomadic childhood was spent in towns in Northern England and Scotland. She was educated at St Hilda's College, Oxford, and has worked in various areas of non-fiction publishing, including Gordon Fraser and Quarto. In 1990, she left London and went to Turin to teach English to stressed-out executives of the Fiat motor company. The following year she taught English in Bilbao.
She returned to England in 1992 and spent the rest of that year in County Durham, in a house that looked out over the North Sea. There she began working on her first novel, Jonathan Strange & Mr Norrell.
From 1993 to 2003, Susanna Clarke was an editor at Simon and Schuster's Cambridge office, where she worked on their cookery list. She has published seven short stories and novellas in US anthologies. One, "The Duke of Wellington Misplaces His Horse," first appeared in a limited-edition, illustrated chapbook from Green Man Press. Another, "Mr Simonelli or The Fairy Widower," was shortlisted for a World Fantasy Award in 2001.
She lives in Cambridge with her partner, the novelist and reviewer Colin Greenland.

这本书的装祯实在太恐怖了,700页的书一本全,还是差不多A4的大开本,捧着看几页手腕就累得不行了,只能放桌上跟读课本一样,一页一页翻开。印刷更是惨不忍睹,N多页墨迹严重不足,每页那可怕的防羊皮纸痕迹,外加大魔法师那几个弱智字,还一股股的发霉油墨味,我都不知道该如...

评分1、太厚了。看着手很累,总也找不到好的姿势。 2、非常非常啰嗦。就像陈旧的故纸堆每翻一页都会有很多灰尘,就像一个老太太在絮絮叨叨,不时跳出来的所谓历史,人物,注释,传说,理论探讨,冗长乏味,时刻挑战你的耐心。 3、老式英国小说的味道。作者总试图和读者对话 ———...
评分苏珊娜,卡拉克。让魔法穿行于历史事迹之间,看似胡言乱语,其实更有蹊跷,懵懂之间,渐渐透明。 其实,我们不知道魔法,电影就是魔法,但是,质感魔法还是很震撼。 去掉自己的尺子,来深入的阅读,定会乐不思蜀,流连忘返。

At the dawn of the nineteenth century, two very different magicians emerge to change England's history. In the year 1806, with the Napoleonic Wars raging on land and sea, most people believe magic to be long dead in England--until the reclusive Mr Norrell reveals his powers, and becomes a celebrity overnight.
Soon, another practicing magician comes forth: the young, handsome, and daring Jonathan Strange. He becomes Norrell's student, and they join forces in the war against France. But Strange is increasingly drawn to the wildest, most perilous forms of magic, straining his partnership with Norrell, and putting at risk everything else he holds dear.

1. 太喜歡這種拐彎抹角一句話兜三圈酸人回味無窮的文路了 2. Susanna Clarke的筆觸帶著一種自然而然的悲傷 她筆下的死亡 離別和回憶 彷彿鉛灰色的霧靄 輕描淡寫卻重重的壓在人心上 只可惜這個結尾啊 真的太不奧斯汀了
评分俺还是不要指望BBC能拍出原作的风骨了【。#audiobook
