Julian Patrick Barnes is a contemporary English writer of postmodernism in literature. He has been shortlisted three times for the Man Booker Prize--- Flaubert's Parrot (1984), England, England (1998), and Arthur & George (2005), and won the prize for The Sense of an Ending (2011). He has written crime fiction under the pseudonym Dan Kavanagh.
Following an education at the City of London School and Merton College, Oxford, he worked as a lexicographer for the Oxford English Dictionary. Subsequently, he worked as a literary editor and film critic. He now writes full-time. His brother, Jonathan Barnes, is a philosopher specialized in Ancient Philosophy.
He lived in London with his wife, the literary agent Pat Kavanagh, until her death on 20 October 2008.
Which of two stuffed parrots was the inspiration for one of Flaubert's greatest stories? Why did the master keep changing the colour of Emma Bovary's eyes? And why should it matter so much to Geoffrey Braithwaite, a retired doctor haunted by a private secret? In "Flaubert's Parrot", Julian Barnes spins out a multiple mystery of obsession and betrayal (both scholarly and romantic) and creates an exuberant enquiry into the ways in which art mirrors life and then turns around to shape it.

评分文/吴情 对一个人来说,记忆有多重要呢?我们上学、工作、恋爱、结婚、生育、与人交际……记忆,当事情处于完成时后的残留、片段,有时连细节都很清楚,有时涉及具体人物都忘却姓名。人们常常说“活在当下”,殊不知,我们最终能够拥有的,只有记忆。记忆构筑了一个人...
评分So full of cranky yet plausible maxims, amuse and sadden me. The religion of despair, to remain calm while gazing down into the black pit at the feet, stoicism and pessimism. Happiness lies in the imagination not the act, first in anticipation later in memory, the secret of happiness is to be happy already, sadness is a vice. Sigh...
