In 1948, when he is fifteen, Trond spends a summer in the country with his father. The events — the accidental death of a child, his best friend’s feelings of guilt and eventual disappearance, his father’s decision to leave the family for another woman — will change his life forever. An early morning adventure out stealing horses leaves Trond bruised and puzzled by his friend Jon’s sudden breakdown. The tragedy that lies behind this scene becomes the catalyst for the two boys’ families to gradually fall apart.
As a 67-year-old man, and following the death of his wife, Trond has moved to an isolated part of Norway to live in solitude. But a chance encounter with a character from the fateful summer of 1948 brings the painful memories of that year flooding back, and will leave Trond even more convinced of his decision to end his days alone.
Per Petterson, defeated eight finalists, including Julian Barnes, J.M. Coetzee, Salman Rushdie and Cormac McCarthy to win the International IMPAC Dublin Literary Award for Out Stealing Horses .

評分讓我不由的想起瞭《島》,同樣是對上一輩經曆的探究,同樣是揭示樸素的人性,寫法不同,風格各異。此文讓人從挪威森林的靜謐中找到人性中最深邃的渴望。文筆優美,敘述張弛有度,把風景融入進人的情感,而如此不著痕跡,確實是很難得的。

評分這個英譯本非常絕,流暢的直如行雲流水,明明是翻譯卻有如原創。書的前頭評介裏說是像雷濛德卡佛的短篇小說。是有點像。但是因為是長篇,顯得更加從容,綿密的情緒裹挾著你,在水邊,在密林邊緣。 其實故事核心就是主人公的父親突然把他“甩”瞭,敘述圍繞著其前,其後,以及...
