评分两个人,在70岁时开始慢慢了解彼此,走进彼此的生活,慢慢地喜欢上对方。“我决定要自由地活着”,“我才不在乎别人是怎么看的,我只是在做自己想做的事情而已,既没有伤风败俗,也没有伤害别人” 作者的确是在用十分朴实无华的文字,平静地叙述一个故事,内核触及到一些少有人...
评分朋友被封面和介绍所吸引,感觉和《岛上书店》里虚构的《迟暮花开》所述主题类似,遂在书店买下了此书,而我则是后来在图书馆看到了此书,遂借来翻翻。朋友说,就喜欢这种排版的书,每页的字数少,间距大,翻起来特别爽,一个下午就能翻完。确实如此,而且书中并没有什么情节可...

Elderly widow Addie Moore pays a visit to her aging widower neighbor, Louis Waters. They were never close, just knew each other peripherally, which makes the reason for this social call all the more intriguing. Addie would like to know if Louis is interested in sleeping with her. Now, now, this scenario was conceived by the late, great Kent Haruf—Our Souls at Night is no 50 Shades of Geriatric Grey. Set in the same fictional Colorado town as his National Book Award-nominated Plainsong, a town with its fair share of gossips, Addie and Louis embark on an unlikely friendship, an antidote to the loneliness they most exquisitely felt at night. As this friendship deepens, it is tested by said busybodies and meddling family members, plot points that almost distract from what makes this novel such a fitting and sweet swan song. Our Souls at Night was inspired, in part, by Haruf’s own marriage and the intimate, late-night conversations he and his wife relished, just like Addie and Louis. And just like Addie and Louis, Haruf proved that you’re never too old to reinvent yourself, take risks, find love, and write a great novel. --Erin Kodicek
呜
评分长日将尽,两位老人在小城中的孤独与慰藉。清单,清爽,动人。
评分白姨借给我的书,实话讲结尾有一点点莫名其妙的感觉
评分简单的叙述,简单的故事,并非简单的孤独与慰籍,而是揭示出了平凡人不简单的人性。
评分简单的语言却有种能触动灵魂的力量,贯穿全文的那种bittersweet的感觉读起来很舒服。未能给五星的原因主要是结局的那种生活的无奈实在是太过苦涩。但是假如想要读一些能让人沉下心来的作品的话,推荐这本。
