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.
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。
评分最后三分之一还可以。布克奖也是随便发发。
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.

评分消遣读,没有特别喜恶。笔法不寻常,是那种写景都能往抽象里去的调式。写人的时候倒往往很精彩,足见wording上下的功夫。翻译绝对会很累。前文过于平淡,倒是衬托了一下结尾的迷你高潮。但是高潮的铺垫又不充分,整个Mr N 的存在违和感强烈。
