The Petrakis family lives in the small Greek seaside village of Plaka. Just off the coast is the tiny island of Spinalonga, where the nation's leper colony once was located—a place that has haunted four generations of Petrakis women. There's Eleni, ripped from her husband and two young daughters and sent to Spinalonga in 1939, and her daughters Maria, finding joy in the everyday as she dutifully cares for her father, and Anna, a wild child hungry for passion and a life anywhere but Plaka. And finally there's Alexis, Eleni's great-granddaughter, visiting modern-day Greece to unlock her family's past.
A richly enchanting novel of lives and loves unfolding against the backdrop of the Mediterranean during World War II, The Island is an enthralling story of dreams and desires, of secrets desperately hidden, and of leprosy's touch on an unforgettable family.
Victoria Hislop is the internationally bestselling author of The Island and The Return. She writes travel features for the Sunday Telegraph, the Mail on Sunday, House & Garden, and Woman & Home. She divides her time among rural Kent, London, and Crete. She is married and has two children.
後半段有點無力的感覺
评分读时的平淡,读后的波澜, 犹如顷刻废墟的美好,又渐渐建立希望.反反复复的毁灭和重建,人生竟是如此无常.
评分女权主义也太明显了
评分两个家族的历史,克里特岛麻风病的历史。情节本来跟跌宕,但语言略平淡,可能是叙述太多描写太少吧。印象最深的竟然是Alexis听完家族史后对Ed的决断。
评分就这么个故事竟然写了这么多这么多这么多这么多的废话!
读英国作家维多利亚•希斯洛普的处女作《岛》的间隙,不时会想到桑塔格在《疾病的隐喻》中的论述:疾病是生命的阴暗面,是一重更为麻烦的公民身份。我们每个人生活在世上都有双重的公民身份,其一属于健康王国,而另一种则属于疾病王国。尽管我们都很乐于享用健康王国的护照...
评分《岛》是一本神奇的书。 “理查德和朱迪读书俱乐部”是英国一档著名的电视读书节目,办得红火异常,绝对是大众阅读的风向标。经其一指,名不见经传的的英国女作家维多利亚•希斯洛普仅凭其处女作《岛》大红大紫,闻名全欧。《岛》一出马即刻登上英国卫报畅销榜榜首,把《追风...
评分好像很多人都像我一样盼着这本书拍成电影,故事相当好但是作者的驾驭能力有限!好消息是很多人包括制片商都这么想!影视版的"岛"终于来了!!! 在 Victoria Hislop的官网上看到的,由于太激动了还没怎么看全新闻,翻译水平有限,见谅! 她本人的官网上已经有了此片的宣传片http://victo...
评分看推荐抱了很大的期望来读这本书,可终究未感受到一丝感动。固然我很快看完了这本书(通常我读不下去的书能在一半的状态下放很久),可仍是失望而已。 也许真的是文化差异,我也不是基督徒,"麻风病"这三个字于我而言,什么恐惧,难过都不会有,我也根本未能体会。 然而故事中...
评分书商宣称的——“令整个欧洲潸然泪下的故事”,未让我落泪,我不是铁石心肠,只是本书绝不至于像宣传那样的叫全人类都得发怮。 在某几节的时候,已经准备好了眼泪,但总在下一秒消失无影了,一切都太轻了,轻的比不上曾经很多被泪水打湿过的故事。等到阖上书页,我把那些泪...
