When We Were Orphans pdf epub mobi txt 電子書 下載 2025
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.

評分But for those like us, our fate is to face the world as orphans, chasing through long years the shadows of vanished parents.
評分前半部非常好,到瞭重返上海找父母,在戰爭前綫穿過那些平民窟的部分真是讓我又想到瞭前部作品《無可慰藉》,那種卡夫卡的詭異迷宮。好在結尾部分迴復正常,精彩的收尾並切題when we were orphans!

本书中,最让我触动的是班克斯的母亲,被军阀王顾娶为妾,囚于深山,王顾为了显示对白人女子的征服,在客人面前,鞭笞之。人前尚且如此,人后床底之间可想而知。而这一切,换来的是,军阀对鸦片禁运的假装不通融,给儿子班克斯源源不断的资金资助。无论受多大的苦,当母亲知道...
評分看完《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,...
評分在民国梦一度盛行又开始被解构的当下,读这本书还有点意思。 1.最重要的是Christopher这个角色的理想主义和软弱、中立和冷漠。 作为一个理想主义者,当他面对庸碌的逐利之徒时,明明是后者更叫人恶心,前者反而总是显得无理取闹和幼稚。这一点在他回到上海之后尤其明显,穿越...
