具体描述
On a chilly February day, two old friends meet in the throng outside a London crematorium to pay their last respects to Molly Lane. Both Clive Linley and Vernon Halliday had been Molly's lovers in the days before they reached their current eminence: Clive is Britain's most successful modern composer, and Vernon is editor of the newspaper The Judge. Gorgeous, feisty Molly had other lovers, too, notably Julian Garmony, Foreign Secretary, a notorious right-winger tipped to be the next prime minister. In the days that follow Molly's funeral, Clive and Vernon will make a pact with consequences that neither could have foreseen. Each will make a disastrous moral decision, their friendship will be tested to its limits, and Julian Garmony will be fighting for his political life. A sharp contemporary morality tale, cleverly disguised as a comic novel, Amsterdam is "as sheerly enjoyable a book as one is likely to pick up this year" (The Washington Post Book World).

“…allows me to deceive all, allows me to reach my end, allows me to arrive at my Amsterdam.” Perhaps Clive Lively had thought about that when he came to his symphony orchestra in Amsterdam, a place where euthanasia has been permitted. But the author did ...
评分下午坐在家里，光线越来越暗，迫使我不断缩短书与眼睛的间距。然后是雷声大作，倾盆大雨。不铺垫的倾盆大雨。从阳台看出去，见不到雨线。整个城市一片白。混沌的白，白茫茫的白。像一枚重音沉在湖底。 刚好陪着这混响读完麦克尤恩的小说《阿姆斯特丹》。不厚的薄薄一小册，也...
评分永远不要以为别人有多了解你，当你把你内心最真实的情感展露给你所谓的朋友时，你也将自己置身在了别人的砧板之上。人生来是教人孤独的，不要祈求灵魂的同行，只要享受和自己独处的时间，倾听内心最真实声音，所谓的痛苦才会离你远去。只有不相信自己的人才会想要通过伤害...
评分最近我随身的包里有两本书：一个纯白封面，一个纯黑封面。 白色的书，是沈浩波他们编的那版胡兰成的《中国文学史话》，除去牛皮纸书封后就是一个纯白的封面；黑色的书，是新星出版的伊恩•麦克尤恩的《阿姆斯特丹》，除去红色书封后是一个纯黑色封面。书籍装帧是一门学问，马...

没有enduring love和black dogs好。
评分4.5. I thought it was a moral tale, it's not quite. McEwan explores the grey zone between morals and legality, while being a wonderful story-teller. It is maybe too slick how the story ends. In general I like its narrative, clean, sophisticated, polished.
评分A dark tour de force, a morality fable, disguised as a psychological thriller.
