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.
文/吴情 不知从哪里听说过一句话,大意是作家传记中不好书写的部分,不妨用小说的形式间接表现,毕竟,小说是虚构的艺术。这句话,针对法国作家福楼拜来说毋宁十分恰当。在浪漫主义与现实主义竞相争夺文学话语霸权的时代,福楼拜几乎是异常寂寞地经营着自己的小说花园...
評分还是在微信读书读的。以前就看过别人推荐,一直说好。这回在微信读书看到了就读了。 对朱利安巴恩斯了解不多,看过一些人写他,只是没读过他的作品,没什么感受,大致知道是个学识丰富的英国作家吧。这是我读的他第一本书。福楼拜大名鼎鼎,读过《包法利夫人》和《情感教育》,...

評分文/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...
評分我翻阅了一下此书的第一页,立刻就感觉翻译得味同嚼蜡,磕磕绊绊,毫无语感,把一部重要的文学作品翻译成这样是很不负责任的表现。建议出版社找人重新翻译此书。 在网上发现了一篇专门罗列这本书翻译错误的文章,转帖如下: —————————————转 帖———————...
A critic of critics. An unconventional biography of Flaubert.
评分小說的形式的突破
评分太有意思瞭,對福樓拜生平故事進行挖掘,但錶麵之下隱藏著敘事者自己的傾訴欲望和衝動,隱藏著自己的視角和訴求
评分Reminds me of Possession, which very possibly borrowed the same idea dwelling in this novel, about biographing. In general, 'tis a fanfic.
