The Marriage Plot

The Marriage Plot pdf epub mobi txt 電子書 下載2025

Jeffrey Kent Eugenides is an American Pulitzer Prize-winning novelist and short story writer of Greek and Irish extraction.

Eugenides was born in Detroit, Michigan, of Greek and Irish descent. He attended Grosse Pointe's private University Liggett School. He took his undergraduate degree at Brown University, graduating in 1983. He later earned an M.A. in Creative Writing from Stanford University.

In 1986 he received the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences Nicholl Fellowship for his story "Here Comes Winston, Full of the Holy Spirit". His 1993 novel, The Virgin Suicides, gained mainstream interest with the 1999 film adaptation directed by Sofia Coppola. The novel was reissued in 2009.

Eugenides is reluctant to appear in public or disclose details about his private life, except through Michigan-area book signings in which he details the influence of Detroit and his high-school experiences on his writings. He has said that he has been haunted by the decline of Detroit.

Jeffrey Eugenides lives in Princeton, New Jersey with his wife, the photographer and sculptor Karen Yamauchi, and their daughter. In the fall of 2007, Eugenides joined the faculty of Princeton University's Program in Creative Writing.

His 2002 novel, Middlesex, won the Pulitzer Prize for fiction and the Ambassador Book Award. Part of it was set in Berlin, Germany, where Eugenides lived from 1999 to 2004, but it was chiefly concerned with the Greek-American immigrant experience in the United States, against the rise and fall of Detroit. It explores the experience of the intersexed in the USA. Eugenides has also published short stories.

Eugenides is the editor of the collection of short stories titled My Mistress's Sparrow is Dead. The proceeds of the collection go to the writing center 826 Chicago, established to encourage young people's writing.

In Eugenides' first novel since the Pulitzer Prize-winning Middlesex (2002), English major and devotee of classic literature Madeleine Hanna is a senior at Reagan-era Brown University. Only when curiosity gets the best of her does she belly up to Semiotics 211, a bastion of postmodern liberalism, and meet handsome, brilliant, mysterious Leonard Bankhead. Completing a triangle is Madeleine's friend Mitchell, a clear-eyed religious-studies student who believes himself her true intended. Eugenides' drama unfolds over the next year or so. His characteristically deliberate, researched realization of place and personality serve him well, and he strikes perfectly tuned chords by referring to works ranging from Barthes' Lovers' Discourse to Bemelmans' Madeline books for children. The remarkably à propos title refers to the subject of Madeleine's honors thesis, which is the Western novel's doing and undoing, in that, upon the demise, circa 1900, of the marriage plot, the novel 'didn't mean much anymore,' according to Madeleine's professor and, perhaps, Eugenides. With this tightly, immaculately self-contained tale set upon pillars at once imposing and of dollhouse scale, namely, academia ('College wasn't like the real world,' Madeleine notes) and the emotions of the youngest of twentysomethings, Eugenides realizes the novel whose dismantling his characters examine."

今年關於讀書的計劃,是把100本的配額種,挪一些到長篇小說中,那麼少看一些互聯網方法論,設計知識和工作方法。空餘時間久這麼多,而這樣的取捨完全值得。 去年底看完瞭《斯通納》,那種對人生的高度自省態度,很震撼。接著看評論,說《斯通納》和《源泉》很像,講的都是“固...

就業情況日趨嚴峻的現代,為什麼還會有人學文學? 2003年普利策文學奬得主傑弗裏·尤金尼德斯在他的最新力作《婚變》中,不無諷刺地迴答: “大部分人都隻是被動選瞭這個專業。因為他們左腦不夠發達讀不成理科,因為曆史太枯燥,哲學太艱澀,地質學太局限於石油開采,數學太...

每況越下。越寫越沒勁。

在醫院裏讀完,二星的劇情,五星的心理描寫。男人寫愛情故事就是彆扭裝逼。。

不管怎麼繞來繞去女主角還是對男主角說瞭yes,雖然是現代作品,語言復雜緩慢不輸維多利亞時代啊…

The book sucks! It’s the most boring book I have read! Words are beautiful, but what the hell is “plot”?Is the girl mentally ill like her depressed husband? She gave no chance to cute Mitchell but sacrificed so much taking care of that man who gave her nothing in return! What’s the point of the story? Anyway It’s not my cup of tea.
