A daring, deeply affecting third novel by the author of A Home at the End of the World and Flesh and Blood. In The Hours, Michael Cunningham, widely praised as one of the most gifted writers of his generation, draws inventively on the life and work of Virginia Woolf to tell the story of a group of contemporary characters struggling with the conflicting claims of love and inheritance, hope and despair. The narrative of Woolf's last days before her suicide early in World War II counterpoints the fictional stories of Samuel, a famous poet whose life has been shadowed by his talented and troubled mother, and his lifelong friend Clarissa, who strives to forge a balanced and rewarding life in spite of the demands of friends, lovers, and family. Passionate, profound, and deeply moving, this is Cunningham's most remarkable achievement to date.

評分p87 有没有那么一个瞬间,你会觉得变成了自己生活的旁观者,身边的一切都异常熟悉却与自己无关。以前我很讨厌这种状态,现在倒有点羡慕那时候能感觉到的自己。当你跟自己的生活和平相处了太久,就会特别怀念life‘s a bitch的感觉。 整个87页,我都特别喜欢。 我不知道如果我...
評分其实我只是翻出了《Chicago》的原声,其实我只是贪恋“All That Jazz”的旋律,但是事情往往总有有不可预料的时刻,周期性的眷恋让我又看到了那两个单词——The Hours。 总在一些时刻,你会想到一些事,Phillip Glass的钢琴声在耳边响起的时候,我就不愿再从这里面出去...
評分布朗夫人在酒店房间想要自杀的时候,有一段关于她心理的描写:知道了停止活下去是可能的,他还是感到很高兴。能够面对所有的选择,无所畏惧地、老老实实地考虑自己的各种选择,是令人欣慰的事情。她想象着弗吉尼亚 伍尔夫,纯洁、错乱,被生活和艺术对她的难以实现的要求击败;...
評分看电影的时候,没有想到它是从小说改编来的。它那么像个剧本。结构和戏剧性。几乎不太可能是个小说。 可看完小说,变成的疑问是它怎么可能被拍成电影? 写得真好啊。 我这么笨重的身体,都被拨动。被 Cunningham灵巧、不可思议的手像拨弦一样轻易地拨动。声音,是那么纯洁而柔...
之所以花瞭這麼長時間纔讀完是因為我把掃描版的電子書一個字一個字地敲齣來。文字不難,三個女人各自成章,但又互相聯係,很好的一本關於女性意識的小說。
评分殺死女人的不是時間,而是生活的瑣碎。個人更喜歡電影一點。
评分I turn the last page over, as if I am the one who is alive, who is supposed to survive, even thrive, and as if I would rid myself, the flesh with its internal as a thriller of death. The party is ONLY for those who are not-yet-dead, isn't it, Mrs. Dalloway?
评分嘩 我也是能讀完一本英文小說的人兒瞭
