具体描述
A Pale View of Hills (1982) is the first novel by Nobel Prize–winning author Kazuo Ishiguro. It won the 1982 Winifred Holtby Memorial Prize. He received a £1000 advance from publishers Faber and Faber for the novel after a meeting with Robert McCrum, the fiction editor. A Pale View of Hills is the story of Etsuko, a middle-aged Japanese woman living alone in England, and opens with discussion between Etsuko and her younger daughter, Niki, about the recent suicide of Etsuko's older daughter, Keiko.
During a visit from her daughter, Niki, Etsuko reflects on her own life as a young woman in Japan, and how she left that country to live in England. As she describes it, she and her Japanese husband, Jiro, had a daughter together, and a few years later Etsuko met a British man and moved with him to England. She took her elder daughter, Keiko, to England to live with her and the new husband. When Etsuko and her new husband have a daughter, Etsuko wants to call her something "modern" and her husband wants an Eastern-sounding name, so they compromise with the name "Niki," which seems to Etsuko to be perfectly British, but sounds to her husband at least slightly Japanese. In England, Keiko becomes increasingly solitary and antisocial. Etsuko recalls how, as Keiko grew older, she would lock herself in her room and emerge only to pick up the dinner-plate that her mother would leave for her in the kitchen. This disturbing behavior ends, as the reader already has learned, in Keiko's suicide. "Your father," Etsuko tells Niki, "was rather idealistic at times...[H]e really believed we could give her a happy life over here... But you see, Niki, I knew all along. I knew all along she wouldn't be happy over here." Etsuko tells her daughter, Niki, that she had a friend in Japan named Sachiko. Sachiko had a daughter named Mariko, a girl whom Etsuko's memory paints as exceptionally solitary and antisocial. Sachiko, Etsuko recalls, had planned to take Mariko to America with an American soldier identified only as "Frank." Clearly, Sachiko's story bears striking similarities to Etsuko's.
作者简介
Sir Kazuo Ishiguro (born 8 November 1954) is a Nobel Prize-winning British novelist, screenwriter, and short-story writer. He was born in Nagasaki, Japan; his family moved to the UK in 1960 when he was five. Ishiguro graduated from the University of Kent with a bachelor's degree in English and Philosophy in 1978 and gained his master's from the University of East Anglia's creative writing course in 1980. Ishiguro is considered one of the most celebrated contemporary fiction authors in the English-speaking world, having received four Man Booker Prize nominations, and having won the award in 1989, for his novel The Remains of the Day. Ishiguro's 2005 novel, Never Let Me Go, was named by Time as the best novel of the year, and was included in the magazine's list of the 100 best English-language novels published between 1923 and 2005. Growing up in a Japanese family in the UK was crucial to his writing, as it enabled him, he says, to see things from a different perspective to that of many of his British peers. His seventh novel, The Buried Giant, was published in 2015. In 2017, the Swedish Academy awarded Ishiguro the Nobel Prize in Literature, describing him in its citation as a writer "who, in novels of great emotional force, has uncovered the abyss beneath our illusory sense of connection with the world". Ishiguro was knighted in the 2018 Queen's Birthday Honours List.

初读《山峦的一抹淡影》，便被它那种疏离而又充满力量的叙事风格深深吸引。故事似乎在一个平静的水面下涌动着强大的暗流，读者需要非常专注地去捕捉那些细微的涟漪。作者并没有刻意去渲染气氛，但字里行间却弥漫着一种挥之不去的忧伤和孤独感。我感觉自己仿佛身处一个被回忆笼罩的空间，那些过往的片段如同破碎的镜子，折射出人物复杂而又难以言说的内心世界。阅读的过程，与其说是在“看”一个故事，不如说是在“感受”一种情绪，一种氛围。那些看似平淡的场景，却蕴含着深刻的情感张力，让人在不经意间被触动。它不是那种能让你在第一时间就产生强烈共鸣的书，它需要时间去沉淀，去消化，然后在某个不经意的瞬间，让你恍然大悟。
评分这本《山峦的一抹淡影》，给我最深刻的印象是它那种静谧中暗藏的巨大能量。作者的笔触极其克制，仿佛小心翼翼地呵护着一个易碎的瓷器，生怕一不小心就会打破它。我感觉自己像是在一个古老的画廊里，静静地欣赏一幅幅意境深远的国画，每一笔都充满了禅意和哲学。故事的推进非常缓慢，但这种慢，却不是停滞，而是一种蓄势待发。我常常会在阅读的间隙停下来，去回味那些只言片语，去揣摩人物眼神中闪烁的光芒。它没有绚丽的辞藻，没有激烈的冲突，但却能在字里行间传递出一种深沉的情感，一种无法言说的思念和失落。我喜欢这种阅读体验，它让我有机会慢下来，去感受生活本身的细微之处，去体会那些隐藏在日常中的深刻意义。
评分《山峦的一抹淡影》是一本挑战读者耐心的书，但这种挑战绝对是值得的。作者的叙事非常“慢热”，甚至可以说有些“冷淡”，但这正是它独特的魅力所在。我感觉自己就像是站在一个高处，俯瞰着一片被薄雾笼罩的山峦，你能看到轮廓，却无法看清细节。这种模糊性，反而激起了我强烈的好奇心和探索欲。我想知道，在这层层叠叠的迷雾之下，究竟隐藏着怎样的故事，怎样的情感。人物的对话很少，更多的是一种留白，一种暗示，让我不得不去主动思考，去填补那些空白。这种阅读方式，让我感到自己不仅仅是一个旁观者，更像是参与者，我在用自己的理解去构建这个世界。它不是那种能让你大笑或大哭的书，它更像是一种温和的、持续的冲击，让你在阅读结束后，依然久久不能平静。
评分《山峦的一抹淡影》给我的感觉，像是作者在低声诉说一个古老的故事，而我，则是一个偶然路过的倾听者。这本书没有宏大的叙事，没有跌宕起伏的情节，它更像是一幅精心绘制的工笔画，描绘的是人物之间微妙的情感纠葛和内心世界的暗流涌动。我常常会陷入沉思，思考人物行为背后的动机，以及那些未曾明说的过往。作者的笔触非常细腻，像是能洞察人心最隐秘的角落。在阅读的过程中，我感觉自己仿佛也置身于那个模糊、朦胧的境地，去感受那份疏离、那份无奈，以及那份深埋心底的无法释怀。它不像很多小说那样直接告诉你“发生了什么”，而是通过一些片段、一些对话、一些意象，让你自己去拼凑、去解读。这种阅读体验，既有挑战性，又充满了乐趣。你仿佛成了一个侦探，在文字的迷宫中寻找线索，最终找到属于自己的答案。
评分这本书的名字叫《山峦的一抹淡影》，初次翻阅时，我被它极简的封面所吸引，一种宁静却又带着一丝难以言喻的忧郁感扑面而来。阅读的过程，就像是在迷雾中前行，作者用一种极其内敛、克制的方式叙述，仿佛将所有的情感都包裹在一层薄纱之下。我无法预测故事的走向，也无法轻易揣摩人物的内心。那种感觉，有点像在静谧的湖边，看着水面泛起的涟漪，你知道下面一定有东西，但你看不清，只能去感受它带来的微妙震动。语言的运用非常精致，每一个词语都仿佛经过精心挑选，没有多余的修饰，却能准确地触及到读者内心深处的情感。我时常停下来，反复品味某一句，试图从中挖掘出更多的深意。它不是那种能让你一口气读完的类型，更适合在安静的午后，泡上一杯茶，慢慢地去体会。故事的节奏很慢，但这种慢却充满了张力，让你在不动声色的推进中，感受到一种无法忽视的压抑感。
评分Shocked, greatly, by the end the penultimate chapter.
