这是个用假设让人来思考现实的选择题。 人们总是会想要后悔药,若是真的给你一片,你一定会吃吗? 两个不同的选择使故事立足于相同的人物设定,相同的社会现实,却在每一步的细节心理选择上延展出不同的情节。 或许生活中的自己也常常会这样做假设,但回过味来,已经发生的情节...

评分从前啊,有那么两只茶壶。它们可能是纯白上釉的,可能是珐琅浅缀着的,也可能是红泥紫砂的。 制作的时候,它们努力让自己变得完美。一个要做圆的,一个要做方的。一个要做钉足的,一个要捺底的。一个要做成侧提的,一个要做成握把的。 后来啊,它们都碎了。 只不过侧提钉足圆壶...

The new novel from the Orange Prize winning author of We Need to Talk About Kevin It all hinges on one kiss. Whether Irina McGovern does or does not lean in to a specific pair of lips in London will determine whether she stays with her disciplined, intellectual partner Lawrence or runs off with Ramsey, a hard-living snooker player. Using a parallel universe structure, we follow Irina's life as it unfolds under the influence of two drastically different men. Lawrence is Irina's partner of nearly ten years. Ramsey is the ex-husband of a sometime friend, a once-a-year acquaintance to whom Irina has never paid a great deal of attention. Where Lawrence is supportive and devoted; Ramsey is flighty and spontaneous. Lawrence is emotionally withdrawn to the point of repression; Ramsey is fiery and passionate, but volatile. The contrasts between the two men have ramifications for Irina's relationships with friends and family, for her career as an illustrator, and more importantly, for the texture of her daily life. This love is about trade-offs. Both men in Irina's dual future are worthy of her affection but deeply flawed.The answer is that there is no perfect answer: one of the things that draws us to our mates is what is wrong with them.
The Post-Birthday World is written with all the subtlety, perceptiveness and drama that made We Need to Talk About Kevin an international bestseller.
