A compact masterpiece dedicated to the Russian composer Dmitri Shostakovich: Julian Barnes’s first novel since his best-selling, Man Booker Prize–winning The Sense of an Ending.
In 1936, Shostakovich, just thirty, fears for his livelihood and his life. Stalin, hitherto a distant figure, has taken a sudden interest in his work and denounced his latest opera. Now, certain he will be exiled to Siberia (or, more likely, executed on the spot), Shostakovich reflects on his predicament, his personal history, his parents, various women and wives, his children—and all who are still alive themselves hang in the balance of his fate. And though a stroke of luck prevents him from becoming yet another casualty of the Great Terror, for decades to come he will be held fast under the thumb of despotism: made to represent Soviet values at a cultural conference in New York City, forced into joining the Party and compelled, constantly, to weigh appeasing those in power against the integrity of his music. Barnes elegantly guides us through the trajectory of Shostakovich’s career, at the same time illuminating the tumultuous evolution of the Soviet Union. The result is both a stunning portrait of a relentlessly fascinating man and a brilliant exploration of the meaning of art and its place in society.
JULIAN BARNES is the author of twenty previous books including, most recently, Keeping an Eye Open: Essays on Art. He has received the Man Booker Prize, the Somerset Maugham Award, the Geoffrey Faber Memorial Prize, the David Cohen Prize for Literature, and the E. M. Forster Award from the American Academy of Arts and Letters; in France, the Prix Médicis and the Prix Femina; in Austria, the State Prize for European Literature. In 2004 he was named Commandeur de l’Ordre des Arts et des Lettres by the French Ministry of Culture. His work has been translated into more than forty languages. He lives in London.

本来非常期待朱利安巴恩斯和肖斯塔科维奇的组合,但这种威权统治下艺术家的身不由己和挣扎,对于中国人来说实在太见怪不怪了,巴金老舍郭沫若都够写出一堆来。这样的题材适合更锋利尖锐的作家,遗憾巴恩斯并没有做出让人惊艳的发掘和发挥,除了重温一下本已熟悉的传记材料,并无多少回味思考余地。
评分Presumably Barnes at his best.
评分准备三刷。Barnes is at his best when writing about artists.
评分Tragedies in hindsight look like farces. Sarcasm was irony which had lost its soul. A soul could be destroyed in one of three ways: by what others did to you; by what others made you do to yourself; and by what you voluntarily chose to do to yourself.

一本幽深地阐释了权力与艺术的关系的书。主人公兼具强大与懦弱。作者试图揭示权力之下一种更真实更日常的状态,那就是当懦夫,通过与权力当局的部分妥协,换取生活的进行、家人朋友的安全。这个过程并不比当英雄容易,因为自我被一块块分裂,内心反复被自己质问。 试图将英雄与...
评分这是看的巴恩斯第三本书,比起福楼拜的鹦鹉和世界史,这本略微逊色,也许正如作者在后记中说的,他生活在英国自由稳定的政体中,无法感受肖氏在苏联个人独裁政治系统中的恐惧。所以有种隔离感。即使如此,对比当下的中国,读来依旧能感受到肖氏的恐惧和痛苦。我们以为我们所处...
评分为了肖斯塔科维奇读的 其实借肖氏之口表达很多自己的观点 是文学价值高于记录性质的。 “什么能对抗时间的噪音?只有我们自己内心的音乐,关于我们存在的音乐,有些人将它转化成了真正的音乐。几十年后,如果这样的音乐足够强大、真实、纯净,能淹没时间的噪音,它就能够转化为...
