My mother called me Silver. I was born part precious metal, part pirate.
Orphaned and anchorless, Silver is taken in by blind Mr. Pew, the mysterious and miraculously old keeper of the Cape Wrath lighthouse. Pew tells Silver ancient tales of longing and rootlessness, of journeys that move through place and time, of passion and betrayal. His stories center on Babel Dark, a local nineteenth-century clergyman who lived two lives: a public one mired in darkness and a private one bathed in a beacon of light. Pew's stories are, for Silver, a map through her own particular darkness, into her own story and, finally, into love.
With Lighthousekeeping, Winterson begins a new cycle and a return to the lyrical intimacy of her earliest work. One of the most original and extraordinary writers of her generation, Winterson has created a modern fable about the transformative power of storytelling.
詹妮特·温特森(1959—)英国当今实力派女作家,出生于英国的曼彻斯特,在英格兰北部兰开夏郡的阿克灵顿被收养长大,所受的是刻板的福音派信教会教育。第一部小说《橘子不是惟一的水果》发表于1985年,赢得了很高的赞誉。其他作品还有《激情》、《性和樱桃》、《在身体上写作》、《艺术与谎言》等。《守望灯塔》为其最新力作。
十九世纪到二十世纪,作为欧洲来说,算得上是世界范围内的行业大发展,无论是航海、渔业还是蒸汽、工业都呈现百花齐放的态势。在这个时期,仿佛一切都有可能,那些不同寻常的,那些匪夷所思的,那些令人不解的,具有非常浓厚的神秘色彩,一切皆可想象,一切皆有可能。 要论思想...
评分英国哲学家维特根斯坦曾说:“有时,一个句子如果用适当的速度来读就能被理解。我的句子全都应该慢慢地来读。” 英国女作家詹妮特・温特森虽然与分析哲学并无干系,但显然她也是一个掌握节奏的高手。在其2004年的小说《守望灯塔》中,詹妮特・温特森以具有诗般节奏的语...
评分她微卷的短发、略尖的鼻子、立领衬衫加金属鞋尖的装扮,都是我极喜欢的——照片中,那外形有一点像年轻时候的鲍勃·迪伦的英国女人,实则一位小说家,居然也长得很对摇滚青年的胃口。履历是极漂亮,23岁即以处女作长篇《橘子不是唯一的水果》获得过英国惠特布莱德小说首奖,此...
评分象所有人说的,都是精心抛光的句子,闪着炫目的光,串在一起,晃得人晕眩... 既然是寓言,童话...就是说逻辑在这里被鄙视,当然,所有关于爱情的故事都是缺乏逻辑的,天晓得为什么...有背叛、有忠贞、有痛苦、有甜蜜,把甜蜜放在最后就是为了让我们"在自己造就的却从不想要的生活中...
评分真正的魔幻现实决不可能被发现在除拉美以外的任何土地上,包括詹妮特温特森的英格兰,以及这个名叫索尔茨的苏格兰海边小镇。 好吧,让我们先不要作任何的辨别,让我们来讲故事吧,让我用我的生活来讲一个重新开始的故事,一个我不知道的故事吧!或者让我们叫它们寓言,关于爱...
