The Blind Assassin opens with these simple, resonant words: "Ten days after the war ended, my sister Laura drove a car off a bridge." They are spoken by Iris, whose terse account of her sister's death in 1945 is followed by an inquest report proclaiming the death accidental. But just as the reader expects to settle into Laura?s story, Atwood introduces a novel-within-a-novel. Entitled The Blind Assassin , it is a science fiction story told by two unnamed lovers who meet in dingy backstreet rooms. When we return to Iris, it is through a 1947 newspaper article announcing the discovery of a sailboat carrying the dead body of her husband, a distinguished industrialist. Brilliantly weaving together such seemingly disparate elements, Atwood creates a world of astonishing vision and unforgettable impact.

叙述的方式往往可以决定许多事情。比如说当艾丽斯写了一整本回忆录,却刻意地略掉了她和亚历克斯之间发生的一切,突然可以让人明白和他在一起的时间在她心中的位置。即使那是因为这大概是她乏善可陈的人生中唯一值得回忆的地方。 就这样一点埋藏在她心里的故事,甚至没有十年时...

booker的这个奖很有趣,很英国,当诺贝尔越来越奥斯卡化的时候,它还保持着纯朴的疯癫精神。通过收集近些年的booker奖作品之后,发现这是个旨在奖励有趣但是无聊小说的奖项,类似中国的故事会吧。情节有趣,意义无聊或者根本就没意义。盲刺客是2000年的获奖作品,时年作者已六...

Atwood is a bit too refined, but still good sad intimate story.

评分

"The picture is of happiness, the story not. Happiness is a garden walled with glass: there's no way in or out. In paradise there are no stories, because there are no journeys. It's loss and regret and misery and yearning that drive the story forward, along its twisted road."

评分

the brightest spot of the novel is its bleak tone.

算是她的小说中读得最顺畅的一本,借着上下班坐班车的时间看了好几个月,阅读速度也是堪忧
