具体描述
"This is a record of hate far more than of love," writes Maurice Bendrix in the opening passages of The End of the Affair. And it is a strange hate indeed that compels him to set down the retrospective account of his adulterous affair with Sarah Miles -- a hate bred of a passion that ultimately lost out to God. Now, a year after Sarah's death, Bendrix seeks to exorcise the persistence of that passion by retracing its course from obsessive love to lovehate. At the start he believes he hates Sarah and her husband, Henry. By the end of the book, Bendrix's hatred has shifted to the God he feels has broken his life but whose existence he has at last come to recognize. Originally published in 1951, The End of the Affair was acclaimed by William Faulkner as "for me one of the best, most true and moving novels of my time, in anybody's language." This Graham Greene Centennial Edition includes a new introductory essay by Michael Gorra. (From Goodreads)
作者简介
Henry Graham Greene OM CH (2 October 1904 – 3 April 1991), better known by his pen name Graham Greene, was an English novelist regarded by many as one of the greatest writers of the 20th century.[3][4] Combining literary acclaim with widespread popularity, Greene acquired a reputation early in his lifetime as a major writer, both of serious Catholic novels, and of thrillers (or "entertainments" as he termed them). He was shortlisted, in 1966 and 1967, for the Nobel Prize for Literature.[5][6] Through 67 years of writings, which included over 25 novels, he explored the ambivalent moral and political issues of the modern world, often through a Catholic perspective.

读后感
用一个晚上看完这本书，胃部感到阵阵痉挛，像被拳头打了。 阅读一本书的过程中，不断地被唤起痛苦，但又隐隐地夹着欣悦。可以用书中这样一段来回答：“在痛苦之中，我们似乎会觉察到自己的存在，虽然这种存在的表现形式是一种畸形的自我中心主义……但是快乐却会将我们消灭，令...

评分爱情是亘古不灭的话题，千姿百态，言说不尽，个中滋味，五味杂陈，每个人心中都有不同的爱情模样，每个人都经历了不同的爱情故事。《恋情的终结》也讲述了关于爱情的故事。《恋情的终结》是格雷厄姆•格林的代表作，也是最具自传性质的小说。这位传奇大师曾经获得21次诺贝尔...
评分发表一些偏颇之见，以抒心中不满。 这本书有在我看来写得极好的部分，比如不正常的三角关系中情人过山车般的情绪，毁灭一切的嫉妒心，以及如鲠在喉的不安全感。这些是作者的真实经历，估计若不是真实经历也写不到这样的精确。作家就是为经验寻找语言的人。但小说的一开始我就...
