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.

约翰,你是真的老了。 老到那样一个地步,死亡已近在眼前,触手可摸,踏进去是一步,退回来也是一步,仿佛一重薄如蝉翼的帘幕,这面与那面,其实没有多少分别,是黄昏也是黎明,是永眠也是醒来。在这轻而薄的明昧之境,生命中的亡魂缓缓现身,你们交谈,偶或沉思,世界于是铺...

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...
