The extraordinary new novel from the acclaimed author of Bad Behavior and Two Girls, Fat and Thin, Veronica is about flesh and spirit, vanity, mortality, and mortal affection. Set mostly in Paris and Manhattan in the desperately glittering 1980s, it has the timeless depth and moral power of a fairy tale.

As a teenager on the streets of San Francisco, Alison is discovered by a photographer and swept into the world of fashion-modeling in Paris and Rome. When her career crashes and a love affair ends disastrously, she moves to New York City to build a new life. There she meets Veronica—an older wisecracking eccentric with her own ideas about style, a proofreader who comes to work with a personal “office kit” and a plaque that reads “Still Anal After All These Years.” Improbably, the two women become friends. Their friendship will survive not only Alison’s reentry into the seductive nocturnal realm of fashion, but also Veronica’s terrible descent into the then-uncharted realm of AIDS. The memory of their friendship will continue to haunt Alison years later, when she, too, is aging and ill and is questioning the meaning of what she experienced and who she became during that time.

Masterfully layering time and space, thought and sensation, Mary Gaitskill dazzles the reader with psychological insight and a mystical sense of the soul’s hurtling passage through the world. A novel unlike any other, Veronica is a tour de force about the fragility and mystery of human relationships, the failure of love, and love’s abiding power. It shines on every page with depth of feeling and formal beauty.

玛丽·盖茨基尔(Mary Gaitskill)笔下《依然美丽》(Veronica)中的陈述者“我”,前模特艾莉森,很让我困惑。我猜不透她。 一方面,她是个非常敏锐的观察者,对人与人之间的无法理解不能沟通的屏障异常敏感,她可以感受到痛、沮丧、遗憾、绝望等多种情绪,比如她对父亲的观...

我并不确定自己要就此写点什么,这个由碎片构成的故事,散发出被雨水打湿后的光泽,有些不规整的碎片奇异地打中了我。 可能我们当中大多数人是达芙妮——过得够好够平庸,一小部分人是莎拉——独自带着非婚生的孩子清醒地生活。相对于这两个,薇若妮卡和艾莉森就象淋了雨湿透...

偶然在杂志上看到书里的一句话,所以就借来看了。常常这样子,因为作者的一句话,所以想看看她的书,期待有新的发现。万卷出版公司出品,译者是台湾人。看小说还是好累,年纪大了,发现没法像从前那样,同时看好几本书。 110828下外公家

艾莉森十七岁第二次离家出走。妈妈说“她以为长得漂亮就可以闯出名堂”。“她的声音愤怒又嫉妒,让我觉得跷家一定是件了不起的事。”艾莉森就是这样一个人——决绝。艾莉森离家出走,搭便车到旧金山,待在一个欧洲式的青年旅舍里。有个德国女人住进那个旅舍。她已经老了。当时...
