文/夏丽柠 读完《杜兰葛山庄》,你一定会奇怪评委们怎么可能把1984年的布克奖颁给安妮塔.布鲁克纳?这本小说格局这么小。写的是在一个瑞士的庄园式酒店里,几个女人一台戏地互相揣摩、暗藏心机的一段故事。根本就比不上1983年获奖的《迈克尔•K的生活和时代》。库切的叙事向...

评分故事还是蛮好看的,篇幅也不长,两天就看完了。书中一些景物、环境的描写还是挺美的,文字缓缓流淌,不急躁,尤其在景致上的描写还是挺有带入感的。书中人物都比较有代表性,我很喜欢主人公,因为在她身上折射出不少自己的影子,一直以来也是如此,对周围的朋友,对爱执着与坚...

Synopsis
Hotel du Lac tells the story of Edith Hope, who writes romance novels under a psudonym. When her life begins to resemble the plots of her own novels, however, Edith flees to Switzerland, where the quiet luxury of the Hotel du Lac promises to restore her to her senses. But instead of peace and rest, Edith finds herself sequestered at the hotel with an assortment of love’s casualties and exiles. She also attracts the attention of a worldly man determined to release her unused capacity for mischief and pleasure.
她回去了!她做到了!作者笔触十分细腻,特别是在描写山庄周遭环境和女主内心戏的时候(描写女主幻想十分舒适但非其所想的婚姻生活时,以及描写女主如何卑微地爱着大卫时),可以将读者完全代入其中。由于看的是(企鹅)原版,理解可能不是十分透彻,我似乎没看出女主在山庄里遇见的人对她产生了多大的影响(遗产母女、盲人太太)。我只看出Neville(直男癌)让女主更加真切地认识了自己,坚定了其“做自己”的决心。我不禁为这个小说想了一个后续。女主回到英国,再次见到大卫,但是发现大卫有了另一个情妇……
评分记得是第一个学期hotel session老师让读的,结尾很棒
评分一个女小三,在自己婚礼当天call off了婚礼之后决定逃离一段时间,来到了一个极为清静的瑞士湖边旅店。她遇到了几位各有特色的女客人,发挥自己作家的特质,对她们评论并演绎了很多。作者行文偏好长句,尤其看英文原版的时候,一个完整的句子插入很多修饰补充成分,尽管整部小说很短,但读起来并不轻松。
评分缺爱的、存在的意义仿佛就是为他人当陪衬的、在不为人知的角落偷偷叛逆着的女作家,终于像报复谁似的,公开反抗了。于是她被流放到灰蒙蒙的淡季度假酒店,季节当然是适合失败者的深秋。
评分Too many summaries, too few scenes so far,I am getting impatient.Alas, I take it all back,I am more and more drawn into it as I read on. The style is very much like that of Henry James',one of my favourite stylists.Even the sporadic use of french.
