One of the most widely admired writers of our time returns us to the captivating play and narrative allure of his previous novels—G. and To the Wedding among them—with a shimmering fiction drawn from chapters of his own life.
One hot afternoon in Lisbon, our narrator, John, finds his mother, who had died fifteen years earlier, seated on a park bench. “The dead don’t stay where they are buried,” she tells him. And so begins a remarkable odyssey, told in simple yet gorgeous prose and with the openness to personal and political currents that has always marked John Berger’s work.
Having promised his mother that he will henceforth pay close attention to the dead, John takes us to a woman’s bed during the 1943 bombardment of London, to a Polish market where carrier pigeons are sold, to a Paleolithic cave, to the Ritz Hotel in Madrid. Along the way, we meet an English aristocrat who always drives barefoot, a pedophile schoolmaster, a Spanish sculptor who cheats at poker, and Rosa Luxemburg, among other long-gone presences, and John lets us choose to love each of them as much as he still does.
This is a unique literary journey in which a writer’s life and work are inseparable: a fiction but not a conventional novel, a narration in the author’s voice but not a memoir, a portrait that moves freely through time and space but never loses its foothold in the present, a confession that brings with it not regret but a rich deepening of sensual and emotional understanding.

读后感
一棵用金属支架造型的大树，他写为“人力的驯诱”。 他形容玩纸牌人的表情：精明又认命。 坐着不动的老妇：展示性的寂然不动。 母亲的步调：那是一个早已期待到达，期待坐下来的步伐。 慢慢寻找合适的字眼：咀嚼着，仿佛其中有个字包了一层软骨，得多嚼几回才能咽下。 那...

评分起初只是被封面的电车吸引，似乎暗示着一段不坏的旅程。 害怕回忆录，因为一般的回忆录里充满了自恋和错误的记忆。 但这次没有以上弊端，更多的是克制。行云流水之间，细碎的片段变成珍珠，也许光芒没有钻石激昂，却温柔地招引着我们。 书后，梁文道说，这是“地志类”的写...

评分电影院哭泣的人：电影可以把你带上去，再带回原来的地方。这就是人们在电影院里哭泣的原因之一。而人们在电影院哭泣的理由就跟买票进去的人数一样多。 母亲说：太迟了！ 这句话涉及时间折叠的方式，这些折痕确保有些东西可以挽救，有些则不能。 母亲的...
用户评价
最喜欢的段落：“There is a lift in it and the lift goes nowhere really. It takes people up, they take a look around from the platform and then it brings them down again. Owned by the tramway company. Now, a film, John, can do the same thing. It takes you up and brings you back to the same place. That's one of the reasons why people cry in the cinema."
评分智慧贯穿在匪夷所思的情节中，可惜没坚持看完
评分"Women always wonder about other lives, most men are too ambitious to understand this."这是阅读的女性高于男性的原因吗？很少有作者的作品能够像John Berger那般丰富。这既是一本由多个时空流淌交错的故事所组成的小说，同时又讲了一个有关storytelling的故事。
评分只喜欢lisboa这章
评分也就Lisboa比较有意思吧。
