Born near Chester-le-Street, County Durham in 1934, Chambers was an only child, and a poor scholar; considered "slow" by his teachers, he did not learn to read fluently until the age of nine. After two years in the Royal Navy as part of his National Service, Chambers trained as a teacher and taught for three years at Westcliff High School in Southend on Sea before joining an Anglican monastery in Stroud, Gloucestershire in 1960. He later used his experience as a monk in his novel Now I Know.
His first plays, including Johnny Salter (1966), The Car and The Chicken Run (1968), were published while he was a teacher at Archway School in Stroud.
Chambers left the monastery in 1967 and a year later became a freelance writer. His works include the "Dance sequence" of six novels: Breaktime, Dance on My Grave, Now I Know, The Toll Bridge, Postcards from No Man's Land which won the 1999 Carnegie Medal and This is All: The Pillow Book of Cordelia Kenn. He and his wife, Nancy, founded Thimble Press and the magazine Signal to promote literature for children and young adults. They were awarded the Eleanor Farjeon Award for outstanding services to children's books in 1982. From 2003 to 2006 he was President of the School Library Association.

在网上看了一点英文原文,觉得翻译文字似乎还是有点平淡了,个人感觉而已。。可能因为李先生还是想把这个主题处理到男孩子间的充满巨大热情的友谊上去,但是人家明明是基佬之爱呀! 无论如何看完故事的人都应该会挺喜欢小哈尔的。
评分原谅我用了如此令人费解的标题,它与我最近的状态有关,与我推荐的这本书无关。 去年的时候看到这本书,第一遍看完没有做任何笔记,所以隔了一段时间竟然想不起主人公的名字,于是又特意去图书馆寻了来。 依然没有在笔记上留下痕迹,因为我已经远离了看书时的自己:偏执幻想...
评分一口气读完朋友推荐的DANCE ON MY GRAVE(这个名字真的像极了奥登的诗句)。 许多情结让人会心一笑。 尤其是,那些只有青春年少恋人间才会有的独特语言、思绪和小动作。 作者对写作语言的选择充分展示了少年亨利纯真、善感、多思、细腻和依恋的性格特征。少女凯莉极其成熟的言...
评分关于哈尔的最后解脱。我想他是完成了一次“对他人的心理依赖到独立”的转变过程。他一直寻找魔豆罐伙伴,亦即亲密无间的心灵伙伴。巴里的出现完成了他的心愿。但这个满足是突然而短暂的,这段被哈尔奉为独一无二的友谊,仅仅维持了七周便随巴里的去世而消逝。之后可以看见哈尔...
评分爱做为一个永恒的话题,它的对象是人类,而不是某个人,对于某个人来说,也也许是残酷的,尤其是对于少年。也许每个人都经历过那种青春期的孤独,那孤独蔓延的岁月里,友情和爱是救命稻草,但也许也会分不清楚,对于青春期的少年,爱都是挣扎,挣扎着走向成熟,走向死亡,这也...

Dance on My Grave: a life and a death in four parts, one hundred and seventeen bits, six running reports and two press clippings, with a few jokes, a puzzle or three, some footnotes and a fiasco now and then to help the story along is a 1982 young adult novel by British author Aidan Chambers. It is the second book in the Dance Sequence series.
It tells the story of a British teenager named Henry Robinson, detailing the events that led to his dancing on the grave of his slightly older friend, Barry Gorman, with whom Robinson had a love affair.
It was one of the first few young adult books published by a major publisher that depicts homosexuality without being judgmental and was included on ALA's and other libraries' list of books for gay teens. It has also been referred to in a number of books on children and young adult literature.
Because of its gay-positive theme, it was challenged at the Montgomery County Memorial Library System in 2004 by the Library Patrons of Texas.
Barry太自我而Hal太自怜,Kari一定是读者一开始最讨厌而最后最喜欢的角色。有意思的书,但是不属于最好的Young Adult Novel之列。
