Hailed by The New York Times Book Review as "a gifted observer, able to discern the exact details that bring whole worlds into being" and "a storyteller who could keep a sultan on the edge of his throne for a thousand and one nights," A. S. Byatt writes some of the most engaging and skillful novels of our time. Time magazine calls her "a novelist of dazzling inventiveness."
Possession , for which Byatt won England's prestigious Booker Prize, was praised by critics on both sides of the Atlantic when it was first published in 1990. "On academic rivalry and obsession, Byatt is delicious. On the nature of possession--the lover by the beloved, the biographer by his subject--she is profound," said The Sunday Times (London). The New Yorker dubbed it "more fun to read than The Name of the Rose . . . Its prankish verve [and] monstrous richness of detail [make for] a one-woman variety show of literary styles and types." The novel traces a pair of young academics--Roland Michell and Maud Bailey--as they uncover a clandestine love affair between two long-dead Victorian poets. Interwoven in a mesmerizing pastiche are love letters and fairytales, extracts from biographies and scholarly accounts, creating a sensuous and utterly delightful novel of ideas and passions.
A. S. Byatt is famed for her short fiction, collected in Sugar and Other Stories, The Matisse Stories, and The Djinn in the Nightingale's Eye. Her full-length novels include the Booker Prize-winning Possession and the trilogy sequence The Virgin in the Garden, Still Life, and Babel Tower.
一、艾什与兰蒙特的故事是本书的主线 兰蒙特生于1825年,与“湖畔派”针锋相对的“撒旦派”诗人在她生前相继离世(济慈于1821年,雪莱于1822年,拜伦1824年)。艾什应略年长于她。俩人均受到了这些前辈诗人的熏陶。总的来说,艾什的作品和罗伯特·勃朗宁有几分相似,有着同样的...
评分最近一直伴着屋外面狂暴的雨读A.S.拜雅特的《隐之书》,本来它是对读者文学素养的巨大考验,对我这种无甚素养的人而言,就成对忍耐能力的巨大挑战了。幸而本人身经百战,并且想来秉承开始了一本书就一定要把它读完的优良传统,因此一路孜孜不觉地把这本可以当枕头大作啃了下来...
评分用了整整三天时间,一口气读完了这本书,被深深的震撼。作者同时描写了两个世界,一个世界是现代学者罗兰和莫德的世界,这个世界有点像戴维•洛奇的《小世界》;另外一个世界是维多利亚时代诗人艾许和克里斯塔贝尔的世界,这个世界以书信、日记构成,却又比“真实的世界”更...
评分罗兰: 罗兰·米歇尔,主人公,文学研究助理,研究艾许 布列克艾德教授: 詹姆士·布列克艾德 克雷伯·罗宾森: 信件于其组织的聚会之后写出的 瓦尔: 罗兰女友 穆尔特默·克拉波尔: 纽桑基金会理事,出资建“艾许工厂” 伊瑟多尔·兰蒙特: 兰蒙特之父 兰蒙特: 克里斯...
评分书名叫Possession,大陆版译为“隐之书”,个人却以为“痴迷”更形象。通读全书,不外是种种痴迷,有学者对诗人生平研究的痴迷,有追寻者对真相的痴迷,有收藏者对物品的痴迷,有学术界对名声的痴迷,有诗人对文字的痴迷,有女性对独立自主的痴迷,有有情人对爱的痴迷,有伤心...
第三遍。毕业论文。
评分这本书买来已经将近一年,可是我现在读了一半不到一点,中间停停看看,刚开始我似乎被作者华丽和细腻的辞藻弄得有点缺乏耐心,现在重新拾起,似乎发现了魅力,期待中(๑˙ー˙๑)
评分掉书袋的侦探爱情故事,看完意犹未尽,只是结尾巧合太多有点落入俗套。另外,这一版的字印得实在太小,不推荐购买此版本。
评分这个版本字太小
