在文学圈子里有这样一个常识,假如你写不出一部有分量的长篇小说,那你甚至不算是个作家,顶多算个游荡于文学殿堂门廊外的可怜虫。记得《2666》里波拉尼奥这么评价《变形记》,《圣诞颂歌》:这些不过是大师们完美的习作,而少有人去见识他们真正披挂上阵,和那些能吓倒我们...
评分生命中总是会有一些无法宣之于口的疼痛,比如家庭的破裂、爱人的背叛,信念的崩塌,亲人的不辞而别,死亡,衰老,险境,多年的亏欠...它们就像发炎的伤口,缓慢,绵长,刺痛,你的灵魂像浸透了水的海绵一样沉重。 别人会安慰,会同情,会讲一些苍白无力的话,但你明白自己需要...
评分"too much happiness“ -- 有那么一两篇,让我一度怀疑自己在看亦舒。 一个拉大提琴的女老师,被嬉皮士老公劈腿、出轨。她知道后说那咱们三个人想想以后怎么对付吧。男的是个混不吝,说,不是三个人,没有咱们 -- 干脆利落地把她扫地出了门。女老师咽不下这口气,天天打扮得花...
评分这本小说集题为 “Too Much Happiness”, 但其实它是讲痛苦的,讲那些人们没太有办法讲出口的痛苦。这是我读过的门罗的小说集中最暴力、最惊心动魄的一本,但是故事中的暴力,包括谋杀、性骚扰、出轨、意外等等,并不构成故事的高潮,它们的核心还是在关照人们那些无法言说的委...

Ten superb new stories by one of our most beloved and admired writers—the winner of the 2009 Man Booker International Prize.
In the first story a young wife and mother receives release from the unbearable pain of losing her three children from a most surprising source. In another, a young woman, in the aftermath of an unusual and humiliating seduction, reacts in a clever if less-than-admirable fashion. Other stories uncover the “deep-holes” in a marriage, the unsuspected cruelty of children, and how a boy’s disfigured face provides both the good things in his life and the bad. And in the long title story, we accompany Sophia Kovalevsky—a late-nineteenth-century Russian émigré and mathematician—on a winter journey that takes her from the Riviera, where she visits her lover, to Paris, Germany, and, Denmark, where she has a fateful meeting with a local doctor, and finally to Sweden, where she teaches at the only university in Europe willing to employ a female mathematician.
With clarity and ease, Alice Munro once again renders complex, difficult events and emotions into stories that shed light on the unpredictable ways in which men and women accommodate and often transcend what happens in their lives.
Too Much Happiness is a compelling, provocative—even daring—collection.
最喜欢Wenlock Edge,they didn't know they had it in them. 感觉Munro也是这样的,看似轻巧地写出人心隐蔽的角落,那些我们有但不知道自己有的。最后一篇感觉明显不同,和她别的fiction太不一样了,不过也使我们从另一个角度了解什么是吸引门罗的题材。
评分我终于开始从心底里接受不是所有写的好的书我都需要读完,写得好是真的好,但大量landscape描写我也真的是看得发困(当然这本比逃离已经有趣很多了),有这个时间我不如多读几遍看不见的城市和鳄鱼街这种看第一句话就知道会喜欢的书
评分我开始想人们在日常生活中做出的某个不经意的决定,其背后有什么东西隐藏着呢?神秘,又让人无法否认。
评分巴恩斯说门罗"can move characters through time in a way that no other writer can", 太对了,还说他也试了不过——没门儿,这人家独门绝技。门罗在这书里写了个很绝的句子,"it was real life that was the escape", 或许是这样吧:真实世界里避而不谈、让我们活出来又咽下去的东西,就用写小说的笔全掘出来。在语言上最喜欢too much happiness, 不知道是太累了,又或是俄罗斯的雪、巴黎苦苦守候的老教授、通往斯德哥尔摩的列车打动了我……读到最后脑子里冒出一个念头来:感觉自己静静漂浮在海面上,心里的声音说,就到这里,不要再潜下去了。这篇真是很美。
评分很喜欢
