生命是一袭华美的袍,爬满了虱子。张爱玲这句广为人知的话,说得狠,却也说得准。读《拉拉的褐色披肩》时,这句话一劲地会蹦出来,大可将一袭华美的袍,换成一条褐色的披肩。柔软的故事外壳下,是一颗坚硬的核,非此不能抵御来自生活的破败、无常、残忍与不堪。 一个热闹喧嚣...
评分2006年,美国女作家桑德拉·希斯内罗丝的《芒果街上的小屋》曾风行一时。现在回想起来,那本小书留给我的印象是一股扑面而来的清新之气,十几个短篇组成的人生故事,诗化的语言,干干净净地写法,具备了降温消暑的功效,总之很适合那个闷热的夏天阅读。2010年年初,我又读完了...
评分世间万物就好像一块布,人类就是相互交织的纤维。每个人都同我联结在一起,我也同其他人联结在一起,就像披肩上的一缕缕丝线一样。如果把一股线拉开,整条披肩就会解体。所以说,无论是谁,只要他(她)介入了我的生活,我的那部分“披肩图案”就一定会受到影响,反之我也会影...

The celebrated author of The House on Mango Street gives us an extraordinary new novel, told in language of blazing originality: a multigenerational story of a Mexican-American family whose voices create a dazzling weave of humor, passion, and poignancy–the very stuff of life.
Lala Reyes’ grandmother is descended from a family of renowned rebozo, or shawl, makers. The striped caramelo rebozo is the most beautiful of all, and the one that makes its way, like the family history it has come to represent, into Lala’s possession. The novel opens with the Reyes’ annual car trip–a caravan overflowing with children, laughter, and quarrels–from Chicago to “the other side”: Mexico City. It is there, each year, that Lala hears her family’s stories, separating the truth from the “healthy lies” that have ricocheted from one generation to the next. We travel from the Mexico City that was the “Paris of the New World” to the music-filled streets of Chicago at the dawn of the Roaring Twenties–and, finally, to Lala’s own difficult adolescence in the not-quite-promised land of San Antonio, Texas.
Caramelo is a romantic tale of homelands, sometimes real, sometimes imagined. Vivid, funny, intimate, historical, it is a brilliant work destined to become a classic: a major new novel from one of our country’s most beloved storytellers.
