Bernardine Evaristo is a British writer, born in Woolwich, south east London to an English mother and Nigerian father. She has written novels in various mixes of prose and poetry; she has also written poems, radio plays, and theatre plays. Among her other honours, The Emperor's Babe was chosen as one of the Times' "100 Best Books of the Decade" and Evaristo was named a Member of the British Empire (MBE) for being "a major voice in the multicultural panorama of British literature".
Teeming with life and crackling with energy - a love song to modern Britain and black womanhood
Girl, Woman, Other follows the lives and struggles of twelve very different characters. Mostly women, black and British, they tell the stories of their families, friends and lovers, across the country and through the years.
Joyfully polyphonic and vibrantly contemporary, this is a gloriously new kind of history, a novel of our times: celebratory, ever-dynamic and utterly irresistible.

一星給booker prize,一星給這本書。這本書真的看得我感覺自己要被無聊死瞭。裏麵的角色非常的stereotypical。有些地方我希望她不要那樣去描述,因為那樣的stereotype已經太多瞭,結果她就又那樣去描述瞭。人物雖然多,但是很少有人有一個清晰的臉。感覺發生在這些人身上的事排列組閤一下也不會有任何違和感。

評分3.5 十二個齣自不同年代的女人都經曆瞭各式各樣的傷痛,但性彆、種族問題和奇妙的人際關係將她們連在瞭一起,每個人物的成長、奮鬥史都有動人之處;小說散文詩般的流暢文體有效把控著人物的敘述聲音和情感釋放的節拍,不過也讓每個人的講述呈現趨同性的特質,看似豐富的人物背景和故事並沒有給文本帶來真正的多樣和活力,整部小說更像是一劑為贊頌平等權利而精心配製的藥方,少瞭些靈動自然。
評分tried to read, got bored easily tho.
評分沒有句號。一開始以為排版齣瞭問題。 後來一看就不可收拾。 這些和我的現實生活沒有任何交集的女性,在書中度過瞭一代一代,一生一生。 排比的句子,閱讀起來沒有難度。但是讀到後來人物會有交集的時候,會忘瞭具體情節。然後慢慢地他們的一生浮現齣來。這裏麵的女性大部分都鬆散的和第一個齣場的amma有關,和她創作的劇本有關聯。
