The subject of enthusiastic and widespread reviews, David Lodge's fourteenth work of fiction displays the humor and shrewd observations that have made him a much-loved icon. Deaf Sentence tells the story of Desmond Bates, a recently retired linguistics professor in his mid-sixties. Vexed by his encroaching deafness and at loose ends in his personal life, Desmond inadvertently gets involved with a seemingly personable young American female student who seeks his support in matters academic and not so academic, who finally threatens to destabilize his life completely with her unpredictable-and wayward-behavior. What emerges is a funny, moving account of one man's effort to come to terms with aging and mortality-a classic meditation on modern middle age that fans of David Lodge will love.

評分這是我給戴維·洛奇(David Lodge) 2008年的小說Deaf Sentence 提議的書名翻譯。本來兩個英文詞夠簡單的,可是“sentence”是個可數名詞,既不在前麵加個“a”,又不是復數形式,弄啥玄虛啊?是要讀者聯想到“death sentence”?此公喜歡玩文字遊戲,像現實生活中的齣版社Mi...

Wow, an amazing book about aging, midlife crisis, marriage, and human desires. I absolutely love David Lodge’s writing.
評分David Lodge的文筆和構思都沒的說,這本不如之前的幾本炫技,中間轉換敘述視角什麼的也讓人覺得很舒服。退休瞭以後就開始寫退休的生活瞭啊。
