具体描述
Pretty early on in The Gathering you realize that in her lingering portrait of the Hegarty clan (and this isn't hyperbole--they are a family of 12), Irish novelist Anne Enright will wrestle with all the giant literary tropes that have come before her. Family, of course, is the big one, but with equal intensity she explores death and dying, the sea and its siren song, sex, shame, secrecy, unreliable memories, madness, "the drink," and--always in the shadows--England. That said, it's not like any other novel about the Irish that I've read. The story of the Hegartys is indeed bleak, and hard, but it surges with tenderness and eloquent thought which, in the end, are the very things that help this family (or at least her narrator Veronica) survive. Through her eyes, and in Enright's skillful imagination, those small turning-point moments of life that we all know in some form or another--a petty fight, a careless word, an event witnessed--come together in an unshakeable vision of how you become the person you are. --Anne Bartholomew

读后感
不敢说我看懂了这本书，但我却真的努力去看，去弄明白：这是怎样一个故事？主人公到底想说什么？ 英国人的思维很有特点，很直白，到了粗暴的地步。经常让人措手不及吓一跳。但却又让人不得不佩服他的深刻。家的温情（如果说还有的话）隐隐显现在无情之中，需要人们去找。
评分文/小书蠹找乐子 人来人往的聚会并无欢欣，因为它是因葬礼而起。安﹒恩莱特以《聚会》命名小说，怎不教人侧目？ 小说以主人公薇罗妮卡的视角，讲述了由哥哥黎安葬礼牵扯出的家族故事。母亲生育了12个子女，人越多，彼此却越生疏；一家人有着共同血脉、共同渊源，却根本谈不上...
评分作者的语言给人的感觉就是阴沉，阴沉到呼吸和心跳都放缓了，阴沉到周围的一切都恍惚了，阴沉到似乎世界都静止了。读了会被作者的语言深深地感染着，深陷在主人公的情绪中无法自拔。 《聚会》作者叙述的方式与其说是敞开心扉式的，不如说是透骨式的。像X光片，没有丝毫掩饰和包...
评分 评分爱尔兰女作家安·恩莱特的《聚会》描述了爱尔兰海格迪家族的孩子们的故事，这些人生经历用语言语言文字难以抒发的悲伤和无助。 混乱的父母，混乱的家庭，充斥著争吵之下的深情相爱，原生家庭对生活于其中的孩子影响是深远的，书中的各类语言的描写，真实直白又简单，告诉了我...
