Set in late 1980s Europe at the time of the fall of the Berlin Wall, Black Dogs is the intimate story of the crumbling of a marriage, as witnessed by an outsider. Jeremy is the son-in-law of Bernard and June Tremaine, whose union and estrangement began almost simultaneously. Seeking to comprehend how their deep love could be defeated by ideological differences Bernard and June cannot reconcile, Jeremy undertakes writing June's memoirs, only to be led back again and again to one terrifying encouner forty years earlier--a moment that, for June, was as devastating and irreversible in its consequences as the changes sweeping Europe in Jeremy's own time. In a finely crafted, compelling examination of evil and grace, Ian McEwan weaves the sinister reality of civiliation's darkest moods--its black dogs--with the tensions that both create love and destroy it.
把家庭琐事争吵写出哲学感,麦克尤恩真有本事。不过我没有理解男主和女主到底怎么回事,为什么好好的就吵起来了以至于一辈子都没和解。麦克尤恩笔下经常有这样处于年轻的激愤而相互误解的情人们,常常为他们觉得惋惜
评分Like the idea that she was, has been, and will remain a myth
评分black dog noun informal used as a metaphor for melancholy or depression : I'm very happy, but the black dog is there, lurking around the corner.
评分这么old-fashioned有点惊讶
评分以第三方身份家访情感,又分别从各自视角出发回忆共同时光,引入黑犬悬念每次欲言又止直到最后一段才揭开谜底,就这个层面来说还挺有趣。问题是里面夹杂了太多政治,尤其是把男女方巨大差异往政治取向上引导,包括在柏林的政治经历,实在不是我喜欢的类型。总的来说,这本比较散漫、嘈杂,欠缺纯粹。
