石黑一雄笔调典雅平淡,剥洋葱喝凉白开一样慢慢地叙述这个不怎么离奇不怎么科幻不怎么让人激动的故事。对于我们这种看完以后被感伤得说不出话来的人,写在这里的东西也不能透露太多,一透露,半本书就索然无味了。 以他这个调调,你只消看两三章就会明白,不会有I...
评分第一次读到石黑一雄是他那本处女作《远山淡影》,他在小说里不厌其烦地描述一个日本女人的内心幻象,结局令人难以忘怀。今天早上花了两个小时读完了他的名作《别让我走》,村上春树曾经把这本书形容为“半个世纪以来读到的最好的小说”。 和川端康成一样,石黑一雄喜欢描述人...
评分石黑一雄确实是一个英国作家,这一点在字里行间我感受到他没有具备其余日本作家的什么共性。硬要说有的话,这是一部悲伤的书,和大多日本小说的基调相似。看到很多人在评论这部书的逻辑,我觉得有些搞笑。这本书的定位应该就是“科幻小说”,就像你去抗议《哈利波特》的逻辑漏...

评分Personally I love this book. What I'm not comfortable with is the description given in the rating. Instead of judgemental phrase like '推荐', I prefer something more personal like 'like it' or 'love it'. Now comes to the book. I have to admit, at first I ...

From the Booker Prize-winning author of The Remains of the Day and When We Were Orphans, comes an unforgettable edge-of-your-seat mystery that is at once heartbreakingly tender and morally courageous about what it means to be human.
Hailsham seems like a pleasant English boarding school, far from the influences of the city. Its students are well tended and supported, trained in art and literature, and become just the sort of people the world wants them to be. But, curiously, they are taught nothing of the outside world and are allowed little contact with it.
Within the grounds of Hailsham, Kathy grows from schoolgirl to young woman, but it’s only when she and her friends Ruth and Tommy leave the safe grounds of the school (as they always knew they would) that they realize the full truth of what Hailsham is.
Never Let Me Go breaks through the boundaries of the literary novel. It is a gripping mystery, a beautiful love story, and also a scathing critique of human arrogance and a moral examination of how we treat the vulnerable and different in our society. In exploring the themes of memory and the impact of the past, Ishiguro takes on the idea of a possible future to create his most moving and powerful book to date.
读的我很痛苦
评分不言明的悲伤
评分这本口碑爆棚的书讲述了一个完全没有逻辑的所谓浪漫的爱情故事。设定主角为克隆人可能是为了赚取眼泪,我一点没听出伤感来。故事进展拖沓不堪,腻腻乎乎。而且整个故事建立在癌症可以用器官移植的方法解决真是让人不能忍啊!就有声书来说趣味性1分,难度2.5分。
评分you are be told, you are not be totally told.
评分慕名来读。一开始很虚幻,一头雾水。越往后越清晰。Ishiguro似乎总是在一段的最后铺垫出下文,但好多重磅情节却轻描淡写地一笔带过。哥特式的文风,值得思考的主题。
