艾麗絲•默多剋(Iris Murdoch,1919—1999)是英國二十世紀最著名的小說傢之一, 同時也是位貨真價實的哲學傢,被譽為 “全英國最聰明的女人”。她的哲學思想深受剋爾愷郭爾和薩特的存在主義影響,哲學寫作又深受西濛娜•韋伊與柏拉圖的影響,其小說創作緻力於探討善與惡、性關係、道德睏境與無意識的力量,以其對於個體內心生活的關注和深入探討,延續瞭托爾斯泰、陀思妥耶夫斯基、喬治•愛略特與普魯斯特等小說大師的偉大傳統。默多剋共六次進入布剋奬短名單,為該奬曆史上獲得提名最多的作傢,並以《大海,大海》奪魁。
Bradley Pearson, an unsuccessful novelist in his late fifties, has finally left his dull office job as an Inspector of Taxes. Bradley hopes to retire to the country, but predatory friends and relations dash his hopes of a peaceful retirement. He is tormented by his melancholic sister, who has decided to come live with him; his ex-wife, who has infuriating hopes of redeeming the past; her delinquent brother, who wants money and emotional confrontations; and Bradley's friend and rival, Arnold Baffin, a younger, deplorably more successful author of commercial fiction. The ever-mounting action includes marital cross-purposes, seduction, suicide, abduction, romantic idylls, murder, and due process of law. Bradley tries to escape from it all but fails, leading to a violent climax and a coda that casts shifting perspectives on all that has preceded. "Fertile invention is put to the service of an expansive sense of character; and since the book also has Miss Murdoch's usual narrative energy and intellectual weight, it is the best novel she has written in years." ("The New York Times Book Review")

小說充斥強烈的感情的狂流,生活的重壓讓內心無法喘息。唯有愛情能帶來的光明與釋然。但畢竟是藝術之愛,來的逼仄而窒息。震驚之餘,恐怕生活中的愛最好還是交付似水流年為妙吧。 小說在失敗婚姻的背景下展開: 對於已婚的中年婦女,婚姻之外的寄托纔是對這段平淡婚姻的...
評分小說的主人公布拉德利愛文學,敏感,與人為善,略顯懦弱。看起來,他對自己的文學品位相當自信而對自己在功名上的失意不無介懷。布拉德利把關於文學和愛欲的理想保存得很好,確實配得上蕾切爾說的“生活在文學的幻景”。默多剋寫植物的內容不多,那段海邊景色,是放慢速度,注...

Almost dropped book at it's one fifth, then kept continuing finishing it just for the language. Because from its very beginning, it was overloaded with human's stupidity, all kinds of all age stupidity and filthy and selfishness, which I simply hardly stand. The postscript is the core. It's not about love, it's about truth and lie.

評分All the stupid and messy stuff about age, love and family. The postscripts are the essence.

評分我對巨蟹座建議的任何人生法則都半信半疑,因為他們大體都是沿著本雅明的路綫說一套做一套,所以到最後一部分作者建議讀者”痛得徹底一點“時會覺得有點逞能。但這書,適閤所有單相思和無果的戀人,最後一段的時候任何人都會控製不住眼淚
