The Thirteenth Tale 2024 pdf epub mobi 电子书 著者简介

…a mistress of the craft of storytelling.”

The Guardian

Diane Setterfield is a British author. Her bestselling novel, The Thirteenth Tale (2006) was published in 38 countries worldwide and has sold more than three million copies. It was number one in the New York Times hardback fiction list for three weeks and is enjoyed as much for being ‘a love letter to reading’ as for its mystery and style. Her second novel, Bellman & Black (2013 is a genre-defying tale of rooks and Victorian retail. January 2019 sees the publication of her new title, Once Upon a River, which has been called 'bewitching' and 'enchanting'.

Born in Englefield, Berkshire in 1964, Diane spent most of her childhood in the nearby village of Theale. After schooldays at Theale Green, Diane studied French Literature at the University of Bristol. Her PhD was on autobiographical structures in André Gide’s early fiction. She taught English at the Institut Universitaire de Technologie and the Ecole nationale supérieure de Chimie, both in Mulhouse, France, and later lectured in French at the University of Central Lancashire in the UK. She left academia in the late 1990s to pursue writing.

The Thirteenth Tale was acquired by Heyday Films and adapted for television by the award-winning playwright and scriptwriter, Christopher Hampton. Starring Vanessa Redgrave and Olivia Colman, it was filmed in 2013 in North Yorkshire for BBC2. The TV rights to Once Upon a River have even sold to Kudos (Broadchurch, Spooks, Grantchester).

Diane Setterfield has been published in over forty countries.

Diane lives in Oxford, in the UK. When not writing she reads widely, and when not actually reading she is usually talking or thinking about reading. She is, she says, ‘a reader first, a writer second.’

书中,作为一位积年累月编织故事的大作家,维达·温特叙述的自己经历开头仍然像一个故事。 “从前有一幢闹鬼的房子……” “从前有一座图书馆……” “从前有一对双胞胎……” 莫说,所有引人入胜的好故事都有着这样的开头。每一个人也都有过这样的童年,...

The Thirteenth Tale 2024 pdf epub mobi 电子书 图书描述

When Margaret Lea opened the door to the past, what she confronted was her destiny.

All children mythologize their birth...So begins the prologue of reclusive author Vida Winter's collection of stories, which are as famous for the mystery of the missing thirteenth tale as they are for the delight and enchantment of the twelve that do exist.

The enigmatic Winter has spent six decades creating various outlandish life histories for herself -- all of them inventions that have brought her fame and fortune but have kept her violent and tragic past a secret. Now old and ailing, she at last wants to tell the truth about her extraordinary life. She summons biographer Margaret Lea, a young woman for whom the secret of her own birth, hidden by those who loved her most, remains an ever-present pain. Struck by a curious parallel between Miss Winter's story and her own, Margaret takes on the commission.

As Vida disinters the life she meant to bury for good, Margaret is mesmerized. It is a tale of gothic strangeness featuring the Angelfield family, including the beautiful and willful Isabelle, the feral twins Adeline and Emmeline, a ghost, a governess, a topiary garden and a devastating fire.

Margaret succumbs to the power of Vida's storytelling but remains suspicious of the author's sincerity. She demands the truth from Vida, and together they confront the ghosts that have haunted them while becoming, finally, transformed by the truth themselves.

The Thirteenth Tale is a love letter to reading, a book for the feral reader in all of us, a return to that rich vein of storytelling that our parents loved and that we loved as children. Diane Setterfield will keep you guessing, make you wonder, move you to tears and laughter and, in the end, deposit you breathless yet satisfied back upon the shore of your everyday life.

看完《The Thirteenth Tale》这本书我真的很“受伤”。这种伤反映在生理上,就是眼睛发酸,情绪低落,要知道我看得是英文版本;又因为本身这就是一个令人感伤的故事。不过这就是读书的乐趣。在阅读的过程中,你的心情随着故事的展开起伏。国内有翻译本,书名也就是取作《第十三个故事》。太普通了。我不知道这本书在香港或者台湾的翻译版本会叫什么。故事倒是挺普通的,谈论的就是双胞胎之间的因为血缘而产生的神秘联系。其实人们最感兴趣的就是如何区别双胞胎,而不是他们之间的某种神秘感应。我非常有幸在大学读书做家教的时候曾经教过一对很可爱的龙凤胎。弟弟是相当的聪明,可是姐姐学习东西比较累。我一直好奇在相同的面孔下有着各自如何不同的思想。随着年龄的增长,他们的思想是趋同呢?还是趋散呢?他们的DNA是否有某种程度的相似性。还有一个问

这可咋整啊。看了开头就能猜到中间,看了一半就能猜到结尾。我以后读小说可咋读啊。这也算哥特小说??????

840L;不急不躁的文笔很适合阅读,但是作为悬疑小说就显得拖沓了。

评分

2013.4.6 09年开始有事没事的看。文笔不错,但是意识流似的故事进展缓慢,像极了肚子里没货的作家的拖延术。但是遣词用句,支线编织又是正点科班出身的架子,因为story这词几乎被所有MFA的学生视若珍宝。故事有些地方让人动容,也有不少地方让人毛骨悚然。归根结底,还是有点稚嫩,比如Aurelius这个人物,以及一些对白,总觉得不伦不类,虽然被写得小心翼翼。对我来说,读完这本09年就开始看的书,最后的乐趣也仅在填坑读完而已了。
