只是因为姓氏的相同,村上春树与村上龙在日本文坛被称为“双村上”,但在中国读者心中村上春树的地位要高于村上龙很多。同样只是因为相似的背景,石黑一雄与拉什迪、奈保尔并称为“英国文坛移民三雄”,但石黑一雄的国际主义风格却完全看不出移民作家的痕迹。我一直觉得把...
评分石黑一雄也是看以前恺蒂的介绍,说起来就是他文笔如何如何好,这次读这本小说其实才是第一次看他的一整部作品。果然文笔细腻,文字间有一种洁净感。有种说法叫做“精神上的洁癖”,我怀疑作者就是这类人。 看他写露丝就知道了。在整个故事所笼罩的黑色气氛中,揭示人性弱点和自...
评分1.感觉本书内敛的笔调并不很适合克隆人这么一种激进的伦理题材。 2.虽然也是五星之选,但相比于《疾病解说者》还是有所差距。 3.编辑的功课不够到位。纵然不是推理小说,封面封底简介译序中无处不在的泄底依然十分可恨。和《捕蜂机》可谓难兄难弟。 4.装祯好难看。尤其封底介绍...
评分这本书的前4/5不像科幻小说,更像青春小说。青春期的困惑与自我的认识伴随着他们长大。连最后那个结局,都更像青春小说的结局,每一段刻骨铭心的成长都包藏着一个秘密。 never let me go,中文译作《千万别丢下我》,似乎英文原意并未如中文的呼天抢地,但也没想到合适的说法...
评分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...

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.
口碑再好我也得吐槽。1.作者成功用英文写出了黏糊温吞的日式叙述风格和节奏。2.题材取巧,写法取巧。用第一人称回忆青少年时代伊甸园,好处是容易让读者产生感情共鸣,又规避了描写更大构架的世界观,坏处是人物平面节奏拖沓对于背景设定无法令人信服。可能有人说瑕不掩瑜,我是觉得在这种瑕疵下进一步探讨人性等于自己竖靶来打。3.感情渲染确实不错。
