A child born of chance might imagine that Chance was its father, in the way that gods fathered children, and then abandoned them, without a backward glance, but with one small gift. I wondered if a gift had been left for me. I had no idea where to look, or what I was looking for, but I know now that all important journeys start that way. 'Motherless and anchorless, Silver is taken in by the timeless Mr. Pew, keeper of the Cape Wrath lighthouse. Pew tells Silver ancient tales of longing and rootlessness, of ties that bind and of the slippages that occur throughout every life. One life, Babel Dark's, a nineteenth century clergyman, opens like a map that Silver must follow. Caught in her own particular darknesses, she embarks on an Ulyssean sift through the stories we tell ourselves, stories of love and loss, of passion and longing, stories of unending journeys that move through places and times, and the bleak finality of the shores of betrayal. But finally, "I love you. The most difficult words in the world. But what else can I say?" A story of mutability, of talking birds and stolen books, of Darwin and Stevenson and of the Jekyll and Hyde in all of us.
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。
准备购实体,这本是温特森所有小说里最爱的一本,甚至超过让她声名大噪的橘子。
评分The continous narrative of existence is a lie. There is no continous narrative, there are lit-up moments, and the rest is dark.
评分I'll call you, and we'll light a fire, and drink some wine, and recognize each other in the place that is ours. Don't wait. Don't tell the story later. Life is so short. This stretch of sea and sand, this walk on the shore, before the tide covers everything we have done. I love you. The three most difficult words in the world. But what else can
评分语言相当诗意,但是故事越来越扯了。
评分It moved me to tears, tears mixed with fear and trembling.
在新购买的《写在身体上》还没到货前,提前品尝了詹妮特·温特森的文字味道。用了一下午泡在图书馆的时间,看完了《守望灯塔》。 “巴比·达克为什么不娶莫莉? 他怀疑她,你永远不要怀疑你的爱人。 可他们也许没告诉你实话。 那不要紧,你告诉他们说实话。 这是什么...
评分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...

评分珍妮特.温特森的写作,让人惊喜。各种古灵精怪的比喻应接不暇,一边在心底暗暗思忖着“对的对的,就是这样的”,一边又被温特森构建出的复杂的叙事结构搞晕了脑袋。 文字上,易于亲近,有着女性的细腻。结构上,又故意和你拉开距离。忽近忽远的节奏,温特森是个调情高手。 在...
