In this fascinating, informative, and entertaining collection, internationally acclaimed, award-winning author Colm Tóibín turns his attention to the intricacies of family relationships in literature and writing. In pieces that range from the importance of aunts (and the death of parents) in the English nineteenth-century novel to the relationship between fathers and sons in the writing of James Baldwin and Barack Obama, Colm Tóibín illuminates not only the intimate connections between writers and their families but also, with wit and rare tenderness, articulates the great joy of reading their work. In the piece on the Notebooks of Tennessee Williams, Tóibín reveals an artist "alone and deeply fearful and unusually selfish" and one profoundly tormented by his sister's mental illness. Through the relationship between W.B. Yeats and his father, or Thomas Mann and his children, or J.M. Synge and his mother, Tóibín examines a world of family relations, richly comic or savage in its implications. In Roddy Doyle's writing on his parents we see an Ireland reinvented. From the dreams and nightmares of John Cheever's journals Tóibín makes flesh this darkly comic misanthrope and his relationship to his wife and his children.The majority of these pieces were previously published in the Londron Review of Books, the New York Review Review of Books, and the Dublin Review. Three of the thirteen pieces have never appeared before.

Honestly speaking, I like Toibin's nonfiction more than his novels and short stories. The tone in his stories is always sad and lonely but in his non fiction, he demonstrates his clear and interesting thoughts and he looks deep into religious/human issues. ...

评分“母亲在小说里成了碍事的角色”,爱尔兰作家科尔姆•托宾如是说。他对文坛八卦如数家珍,直接给文集起了个夺人眼球的书名:New Ways to Kill Your Mother,中译名较为含蓄:《出走的人:作家与家人》。在序言中,托宾解释小说不需要母亲的理由:“她们占据的空间可以更好地...
