In 1959 Florence Green, a kindhearted widow with a small inheritance, risks everything to open a bookshop - the only bookshop - in the seaside town of Hardborough. By making a success of a business so impractical, she invites the hostility of the town's less prosperous shopkeepers. By daring to enlarge her neighbors' lives, she crosses Mrs. Gamart, the local arts doyenne. Florence's warehouse leaks, her cellar seeps, and the shop is apparently haunted. Only too late does she begin to suspect the truth: a town that lacks a bookshop isn't always a town that wants one.
ENELOPE FITZGERALD wrote many books small in size but enormous in popular and critical acclaim over the past two decades. Over 300,000 copies of her novels are in print, and profiles of her life appeared in both The New Yorker and The New York Times Magazine. In 1979, her novel Offshore won Britain's Booker Prize, and in 1998 she won the National Book Critics Circle Prize for The Blue Flower. Though Fitzgerald embarked on her literary career when she was in her 60's, her career was praised as "the best argument.. for a publishing debut made late in life" (New York Times Book Review). She told the New York Times Magazine, "In all that time, I could have written books and I didn’t. I think you can write at any time of your life." Dinitia Smith, in her New York Times Obituary of May 3, 2000, quoted Penelope Fitzgerald from 1998 as saying, "I have remained true to my deepest convictions, I mean to the courage of those who are born to be defeated, the weaknesses of the strong, and the tragedy of misunderstandings and missed opportunities, which I have done my best to treat as comedy, for otherwise how can we manage to bear it?"

评分面对命运暗流时也许每人会有自己特定阅读的书,而我会选「书店」。二十出头时我是看不懂它的,那时我不知道一个小镇的风物人情,会如此蔓延到生活的枝节丰富故事的密度,在暗中虎视眈眈又高远疏离。在兜转数年后再次重遇,时光叫人改变,偶尔风霜扑面,终于沉稳一点了,与故人再会面,一切似曾相识的景物都不一样了。那家只开了一年的书店在1959到1960那一年间的潮汐明灭,Florence梦里的鹭鸟和鳗鱼,倾颓的悬崖别墅被海水腐蚀,敲门鬼的闹腾成了不能说的秘密,Hardborough上人与人的缘分稀薄,它在编织又不在编织,是年过六十写出来的气质舒朗。有些人总教人对年长充满了期待。
评分在靠海的银行旧楼里开一间书店 不想比摆脱夜间的失眠更难 沙墙带出了海水的湿度 楼上鬼怪作乱出了动静 本想将老房建成艺术中心却被抢占先机而借此有了交战理由的富贵女人 流动图书馆的成形 帮手克莉丝汀的离退 全世界都与她为敌 弗洛伦斯·格林的造书梦碎了裂了 她以她的告别成全这座小镇 耳顺之年的处女作 满纸的孤独与隐忍
评分读的是人人版,结尾居然微虐,所有人突然都背过脸去。与之前读的蓝花,离岸冲淡自然的风格相比,这本要更符合通俗意义上的“精彩”,石头投入水中激起一圈一圈的涟漪,我觉得这本倒更符合布克奖的口味,查了下1978年的获奖作品原来是默多克的大海 ,大海。。。好吧。
这本书拿到我手里的时候有一点旧,不像是崭新的。 封面边缘有一些折痕,向上微翘,但其实是新的,没有谁翻看过的痕迹。 封面是旧旧的近似褐色的赭石,就像是从旧书店里淘来的感觉,却没有腐朽之气。 看译者序中说:她其实并不懂书。有一天,我翻译到那一段,她正为新书上架,...
评分范典/文 英国女作家佩内洛普·菲兹杰拉德的书都很简薄,从《书店》、《早春》、《离岸》到《蓝花》,一本本翻过去,人物清晰,立场明白,然而情节又是随意而微小的,她擅长将人物的情绪掩入故事的叙述当中,她的深刻实非一次可以尽得。 她的写作经历让人叹佩不已,60岁开...
评分 评分这本书最好看的是它的朴实的封面。 由于翻译的糟糕,消灭了阅读感。既然一上来就抹杀了要看的冲动,本该把它永远放下,实在它又短小,又是新书,还是那个新星出版社的,姑且给他们点面子,三口两口啃完。 某种程度上翻译的水平倒是同此书女主人公的故事有些异曲同工。这本书讲...
评分我想说,应该给《书店》封面设计和宣传文案发一份特殊的奖金,如果不是他们,这本书可能卖不到现在这样的数量。 书皮是浅浅的土黄色,纸张并不厚重,好像上个世纪七八十年代出版的翻译小说,几毛钱一本的那种,在图书馆角落的书架上微微的泛着黄。薄薄的一本,字体很是精致漂...
