Winner of the Pulitzer Prize and the National Book Award, "The Shipping News" is a celebration of Annie Proulx's genius for storytelling and her vigorous contribution to the art of the novel.Quoyle, a third-rate newspaper hack, with a "head shaped like a crenshaw, no neck, reddish hair...features as bunched as kissed fingertips," is wrenched violently out of his workaday life when his two-timing wife meets her just deserts. An aunt convinces Quoyle and his two emotionally disturbed daughters to return with her to the starkly beautiful coastal landscape of their ancestral home in Newfoundland. Here, on desolate Quoyle's Point, in a house empty except for a few mementos of the family's unsavory past, the battered members of three generations try to cobble up new lives.Newfoundland is a country of coast and cove where the mercury rarely rises above 70 degrees, the local culinary delicacy is cod cheeks, and it's easier to travel by boat and snowmobile than on anything with wheels. In this harsh place of cruel storms, a collapsing fishery, and chronic unemployment, the aunt sets up as a yacht upholsterer in nearby Killick-Claw, and Quoyle finds a job reporting the shipping news for the local weekly, the "Gammy Bird" (a paper that specializes in sexual-abuse stories and grisly photos of car accidents).As the long winter closes its jaws of ice, each of the Quoyles confronts private demons, reels from catastrophe to minor triumph -- in the company of the obsequious Mavis Bangs; Diddy Shovel the strongman; drowned Herald Prowse; cane-twirling Beety; Nutbeem, who steals foreign news from the radio; a demented cousin the aunt refuses to recognize; the much-zippered Alvin Yark; silent Wavey; and old Billy Pretty, with his bag of secrets. By the time of the spring storms Quoyle has learned how to gut cod, to escape from a pickle jar, and to tie a true lover's knot.

評分06.11买的书。每次看到100页左右就放弃了,又拿起其他书看,这样好几遍。 今年国庆兼中秋回家,把这本书带上,三天时间一鼓作气看完了。 写的真好。就这四个字了~~ 另外:还看了根据书改编的电影《航运新闻》,书里两个女儿小兔和阳光,电影里就一个。凯文史派西主演,他并没有...
評分在深圳书店随手翻到安妮普鲁的THE SHIPPING NEWS,还没有意识到这个安妮普鲁就是短篇小说BROKEBACK MOUNTAIN的作者ANNIE PROULX。 短短几十页的BROKEBACK MOUNTAIN,受尽一些爱书人的好评。起初以为是因为小说描写了边缘题材的故事,才受到追捧。 但看了THE SHIPPING NEWS的开...
