具體描述
From the celebrated author of The English Patient and In the Skin of a Lion comes a remarkable new novel of intersecting lives that ranges across continents and time.
In the 1970s in Northern California, near Gold Rush country, a father and his teenage daughters, Anna and Claire, work their farm with the help of Coop, an enigmatic young man who makes his home with them. Theirs is a makeshift family, until it is riven by an incident of violence—of both hand and heart—that sets fire to the rest of their lives.
Divisadero takes us from the city of San Francisco to the raucous backrooms of Nevada’s casinos and eventually to the landscape of south-central France. It is here, outside a small rural village, that Anna becomes immersed in the life and the world of a writer from an earlier time—Lucien Segura. His compelling story, which has its beginnings at the turn of the century, circles around “the raw truth” of Anna’s own life, the one she’s left behind but can never truly leave. And as the narrative moves back and forth in time and place, we discover each of the characters managing to find some foothold in a present rough hewn from the past.
Breathtakingly evoked and with unforgettable characters, Divisadero is a multilayered novel about passion, loss, and the unshakable past, about the often discordant demands of family, love, and memory. It is Michael Ondaatje's most intimate and beautiful novel to date.

讀後感
对，我指的就是这些。3 1 7/质数的魅力与时空一样，不要想着去占有，要像其他事物平凡对待，不是没有向往某时某地的意思，是绿色代表水，红色代表火——一定要躲开 每个人都带着自己心中鲜明的阿利亚，不愿与人分享，也不愿在集体记忆中使它模糊 安娜最珍贵的财物是一张古老的...
評分 評分好处就不说了，和《英国病人》比起来这部好处不明显，坏处比较多（说实话我也只看过作者这两部）。这里单说问题。 笔力弱，各方面都很散，缺乏一以贯之的整体性。所以我不是被吸引着读下去的而是强迫自己看完的。经常看一会想弃了，又对自己说，耐心点，可能都是铺垫，说不定...
評分最近豆瓣上的人都在谈论《刀锋》和它对人生的影响。很多人把这本书当作成长圣经、人生教条。但我对这本书却没有太多感触。这本书只是某个聪明人硬塞给我的自以为能让我学习的成长圣经。当时还因为我对这本书的无感，让这位聪明人勃然大怒。恨恨孺子不可教。 然而人与书各自有...
評分喜欢迈克尔·翁达杰的人，大多矫情而文艺，骨子里带点伤感，脆弱，却又无比固执。比如安东尼·明格拉，他自编自导了《冷山》《天才雷普利》等无数佳片，但最广为人知的还是《英国病人》。那一年，他在读罢迈克尔·翁达杰的同名小说之后，梦见了沙漠，游泳者洞穴，开罗偷情的男...
