说实话,如果我自己买书的话,我很大可能是不会买这本书的。 这本书很温柔,也并不难懂,很快就看完了。一个失去丈夫的老妇人与失去妻子的老人,成为了相互陪伴的伴侣,他们受到自己孩子和街区人的质疑和冷言冷语,但是依旧愿意在一起。 作者大概是想表达出一种对每一种关系的...

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
长日将尽,两位老人在小城中的孤独与慰藉。清单,清爽,动人。
评分艾迪的儿子真是讨人厌啊,艾迪这个人物也不讨喜,她缺乏勇气捍卫爱情。这个故事没什么特别的,比较温吞,也可能是我还没达到可以去欣赏这个故事的年纪
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。
评分语言朴实,喜欢用大长句 可是没有想象中的好看
评分人生一定会有一次不顾一切 年纪不是限定因素 到老也要保持接纳这个世界的理智 以及 改变现状的冲动❤一段平淡但又很戏剧性的爱 希望现实也会有 大概我们都缺乏这份勇气 ✊ 永远年轻 永远热泪盈眶
