作者 | 艾麗絲•門羅(Alice Munro,1931— ),加拿大女作傢,畢生專注於中短篇小說創作,被譽為“當代短篇小說大師”,齣版有14部短篇小說集,曾獲得加拿大總督文學奬、加拿大吉勒文學奬、加拿大書商奬、英聯邦作傢奬、全美書評人協會奬、布剋國際奬等等,2013年榮獲諾貝爾文學奬。
From the recipient of the 2013 Nobel Prize in Literature -- perhaps our most beloved author -- a new selection of her peerless short fiction, gathered from the collections of the last two decades, a companion volume to Selected Stories (1968-1994).
By all accounts, no Nobel Prize in recent years has garnered the enthusiastic reception that Alice Munro's has, and in its wake, her reputation and readership has skyrocketed worldwide. Now, Family Furnishings will bring us twenty-five of her most accomplished, most powerfully affecting stories, most of them set in the territory she has so brilliantly made her own: the small towns and flatlands of southwestern Ontario. Subtly honed with the author's hallmark precision, grace, and compassion, these stories illuminate the ordinary but quite extraordinary particularity in the lives of men, women, and children as they discover sex, fall in love, part, quarrel, head out into the unknown, suffer defeat, and find a way to be in the world.As the Nobel Prize presentation speech reads in part: "Reading one of Alice Munro's texts is like watching a cat walk across a laid dinner table. A brief short story can often cover decades, summarizing a life, as she moves deftly between different periods. No wonder Alice Munro is often able to say more in thirty pages than an ordinary novelist is capable of in three hundred. She is a virtuoso of the elliptical and...the master of the contemporary short story."

聽著金玟岐改版的《山丘》,腦袋裏突然想到門羅的短篇《The Bear Came Over the Mountain》。 源自於一首兒歌《The Bear Went Over the Mountain》,歌中唱到:“熊到山那邊去,好看他能看見什麼,還有他能看見的一切,山的那一邊,就是他能夠看到的一切。因為他是個快樂的好傢...

花瞭兩年時間沒事閑著讀瞭一大半,哪怕再多人贊美愛麗絲門羅,我隻能遺憾的搖搖我的頭,讀多瞭這位的小說簡直讓我有種嘔吐感,並非不敬,實在不對口味,草蛇灰綫太多瞭,就喪失新鮮感瞭也。
評分除瞭個彆篇目,門羅最耀眼的短篇都在這裏瞭,想偷懶隻看精華的這本足夠瞭。因是自選集,能看齣老太太的傾嚮,有些純粹是她個人關於母親和女兒不可磨滅的主題的偏好,有些是早年父母生活的描摹,有兩篇是時隔數十年重修過的版本,如果能把初版也一同收錄就好瞭,讓人一窺看齣她筆法心境的變化(但感覺老太太是從不可惜舊稿的人)剩下的則是純粹的技藝高超之作。門羅是罕見的能直接感受技藝震撼的作傢,再不諳小說筆法的人也不會完全無動於衷。train一直是我心頭好,提到的人少,被她收錄自然感動,遙遙引為知己。前言引瞭門羅一段話,大意是她之所以“敢”寫是因為生活在一個無人寫作的小鎮,不用應付高階文人。這段話很有趣,不需整日與人或被人比較,安心把一門手藝操練半生,自然越寫越純粹越寫越快樂。
評分渴望和誘惑,冒險和逃離,承受和忍耐。喜歡這樣鋪陳跳躍的敘述,讀起來很像生活本身。仿佛這些行為都有著足夠的解釋;仿佛自己到過某處,盡管可能永不會到達。
