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?"

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.

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...

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...

弗洛伦斯并不是一个艺术家,她的心愿很单纯,她只是想在小镇开一家书店,为小镇的人们提供一些好书。“因为一本好书是一位大师精神凝结而成的珍宝,是为了超越生命的生命而永久珍藏。”她认为它是人们的一种必需品。   她以为她有足够的力量开一个书店,任何东西都不能阻止...

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,...

penelope fitzgerald writes in a way that's seemingly effortless and nonchalant, but you just know that she cares more than anybody else

评分

非常老派的narrative以及语言,觉得Kazuo Ishiguro的The Remains of the Day的语言风格居然和这个有点像,隐忍又英式冷幽默又悲伤。另外故事非常丧,文化改变不了社会,有文化的人自私自利,有自己的社会地位,可爱的是对文化没兴趣的底层民众,但文化改变不了他们,Florence最终明白自己居住了10年的小镇根本不需要什么书店!

评分

To those who were born defeated and profoundly lost. The ending, with such economy and restraint, is the saddest I’ve ever read....

评分

... the town in which she had lived for nearly ten years had not wanted a bookshop.

评分

二战后英国海滨小镇寡妇开设书店、遭遇阻力、最终无奈失败的故事,文风近乎白描,恬静淡雅,平静的叙述下流淌着深深的悲伤,有力地谴责了保守思想与权贵阶级对文化与独立人格的扼杀。
