Elderly widow Addie Moore pays a visit to her aging widower neighbor, Louis Waters. They were never close, just knew each other peripherally, which makes the reason for this social call all the more intriguing. Addie would like to know if Louis is interested in sleeping with her. Now, now, this scenario was conceived by the late, great Kent Haruf—Our Souls at Night is no 50 Shades of Geriatric Grey. Set in the same fictional Colorado town as his National Book Award-nominated Plainsong, a town with its fair share of gossips, Addie and Louis embark on an unlikely friendship, an antidote to the loneliness they most exquisitely felt at night. As this friendship deepens, it is tested by said busybodies and meddling family members, plot points that almost distract from what makes this novel such a fitting and sweet swan song. Our Souls at Night was inspired, in part, by Haruf’s own marriage and the intimate, late-night conversations he and his wife relished, just like Addie and Louis. And just like Addie and Louis, Haruf proved that you’re never too old to reinvent yourself, take risks, find love, and write a great novel. --Erin Kodicek

簡單的語言卻有種能觸動靈魂的力量,貫穿全文的那種bittersweet的感覺讀起來很舒服。未能給五星的原因主要是結局的那種生活的無奈實在是太過苦澀。但是假如想要讀一些能讓人沉下心來的作品的話,推薦這本。
評分艾迪的兒子真是討人厭啊,艾迪這個人物也不討喜,她缺乏勇氣捍衛愛情。這個故事沒什麼特彆的,比較溫吞,也可能是我還沒達到可以去欣賞這個故事的年紀

晚风如诉 ,两颗寂寞的老灵魂选择在夜晚靠近,用已过完大半辈子皱纹里挤出的余热温暖对方,用紧握着手的温度而不是交欢的愉悦来连接彼此,这无关爱情无关性爱,却有关陪伴。 作者肯特哈鲁夫在写这本书时已时日不多,最终小说的成稿是由他的遗孀编辑完成的,我试着想象,作者的...
評分kindle推荐阅读时长一个半小时,想来应该是比较容易理解的小说。每天那么多的快速阅读量,让我在小说开始的慢节奏几乎想要放弃它。在杰米来了之后,感觉上可能是一个美好的夕阳红的故事,反而心生了一些希望。我们在现在的生活中存在着那么多的条条框框,那么多在意的世俗眼光...
評分年过七旬的艾迪有一天晚上敲开了邻居路易家的门。她想要跟他商量一件事,问他愿不愿意晚上到她家去跟她睡觉。 “我指的不是性。”她向路易解释说,“我指的是你和我一起在床上暖暖和和地躺着,互相陪伴着过夜。夜晚是最难熬的,不是吗?” 艾迪一家住在这个名叫霍尔特的小镇...
評分我们活着 当静静的晚风吹向你安静的一天,你感受到你活着;当美人迟暮,容颜老去,除了偶尔的心脏抽搐,我们是否能感受到自己的生命。从未信奉灵魂,但生命的意义在于每一个年级都是一样的。无论新出生的婴儿,青春期的少年,意气风发的少年还是夕阳无限好的老年。追求爱,自由...
評分《晚风如诉(Our soul at night)》 (American)Kent Haruf 濮研 译 这是一个两个小时就能读完的故事。 在我七十岁时仍然能和一个人谈得来,喜欢上她,这让我知道自己没那么老。我决定要自由的活着。 “那是五月某一天的傍晚......”故事开始于艾迪走向路易,向路易提出“呃...
