From the Booker Prize-winning, bestselling author of Remains of the Day comes this stunning work of soaring imagination.
Born in early-twentieth-century Shanghai, Banks was orphaned at the age of nine after the separate disappearances of his parents. Now, more than twenty years later, he is a celebrated figure in London society; yet the investigative expertise that has garnered him fame has done little to illuminate the circumstances of his parents' alleged kidnappings. Banks travels to the seething, labyrinthine city of his memory in hopes of solving the mystery of his own, painful past, only to find that war is ravaging Shanghai beyond recognition-and that his own recollections are proving as difficult to trust as the people around him.
Masterful, suspenseful and psychologically acute, When We Were Orphans offers a profound meditation on the shifting quality of memory, and the possibility of avenging one’s past.
Kazuo Ishiguro was born in Nagasaki, Japan, in 1954 and moved to Britain at the age of five. He is the author of four previous novels, including The Remains of the Day, an international bestseller that won the Booker Prize and was adapted into an award-winning film. Ishiguro's work has been translated into twenty-eight languages. In 1995, he received an Order of the British Empire for service to literature, and in 1998 was named a Chevalier de l'Ordre des Arts et des Lettres by the French government. He lives in London with his wife and daughter.
跟上海不期而遇了。
评分Ishiguro's ambitious attempt at an epic often fails to convince, but his forte lies in capturing the unspeakable. In resolving a mystery, in negotiating through traumatic memories, Ishiguro lays bare the abysmal gap between reality and imagination in individuals whose lives have been torn to pieces in a clash of empires.
评分Of course it turns out to have nothing to do with my research and the entire set-up has some intrinsic problems, but a good read nonetheless
评分But for those like us, our fate is to face the world as orphans, chasing through long years the shadows of vanished parents.
评分最后那个动机,我仿佛在读轻小说。寻母的部分是好的。It’s metaphor. It’s symbolic.
1、石黑一雄擅长运用零星的回忆编织故事,他认为通过这样一个过滤器,我们可以审视自己的生活。在《上海孤儿》中你大概就可以领略到他这一“娴熟的技巧”。但我有时担心的是,频繁使用这样的技巧会不会助长作家在叙述上的惰性。对于场景、事件地转换、过渡对很多作家来说有时要...
评分 评分《我辈孤雏》,一本有着极佳名字的书。但是看完并不会让人心旷神怡,甚至还会有一种挥之不去的忧国忧民的悲伤。 从伦敦到上海,我不知道1937年的上海到底什么样子,所以我不知道石黑一雄是否描述准确。但是读起来,我总觉得有一种魔幻,一种无法置信的抗拒感,或者有好像哪里不...
评分看完《上海孤儿》,毫无疑问这是个并不紧密的故事,暗线的发生一直以孩童时期的主人公叙述道来,碎片式的记忆间插在七个章节里,实际形成双重记忆。时隔久远的上海和战争正在爆发的上海,一切情节上的漏洞和虚弱被时空的远距离模糊掉,战争的背景使其从观感上烟雾弥漫,...
