具體描述
A breathtakingly inventive new novel from the Man Booker-shortlisted and Baileys Prize-winning author of How to be both
Fusing Keatsian mists and mellow fruitfulness with the vitality, the immediacy and the colour-hit of Pop Art - via a bit of very contemporary skulduggery and skull-diggery - Autumn is a witty excavation of the present by the past. The novel is a stripped-branches take on popular culture, and a meditation, in a world growing ever more bordered and exclusive, on what richness and worth are, what harvest means.
Autumn is the first installment in Ali Smith's novel quartet Seasonal: four standalone books, separate yet interconnected and cyclical (as the seasons are), exploring what time is, how we experience it, and the recurring markers in the shapes our lives take and in our ways with narrative.
From the imagination of the peerless Ali Smith comes a shape-shifting series, wide-ranging in timescale and light-footed through histories, and a story about ageing and time and love and stories themselves.
著者簡介
Ali Smith is a writer, born in 1962 in Inverness, Scotland, to working-class parents. She was raised in a council house in Inverness and now lives in Cambridge. She studied at Aberdeen, and then at Cambridge, for a Ph.D. that was never finished. In a 2004 interview with writing magazine Mslexia, she talked briefly about the difficulty of becoming ill with chronic fatigue syndrome for a year and how it forced her to give up her job as a lecturer at University of Strathclyde to focus on what she really wanted to do: writing. Openly gay, she has been with her partner Sarah Wood for 17 years and dedicates all her books to her.

讀後感
夏天哥哥秋天妹妹…… 这本书开始看着没头没脑的，却不忍卒读。慢慢的，倒是看出点端倪来了，感觉我的思维仍然停留在故事情结上，情结摸的有点清楚了，才去体会到故事里这个忘年交的情感。 我很喜欢这种情感，成年人把孩子当成成年人一样对待。儿童期快要消逝，少女时间未满，...
評分Winter is moving forward, autumn had been long gone. But Elisabeth's autumn is like a winter, when Daniel wakes up and greets her. The correspondence of our names, the very similar story. Ali would never know that I made a decision to go back while reading...
評分生存是一个人活着没法去选择的事情，而年龄则是生存的标志，它代表的不仅仅是生存，还有我们逝去的青春，以及回不去的从前。 人总会在不同的时期对自己的人生有不同的感悟，关于生存，关于梦想，关于未来，关于老去，这都是我们抛却不了的话题。我们不得不面对，也必须去面对，...
評分文图 / 左叔 读英国“新锐女作家”阿莉·史密斯（Ali Smith）的作品《秋》（浙江文艺出版社/王晓英翻译版本），是需要比较充裕的耐心和相对整段不被打扰的阅读时空。这一类偏向于“意识流”的作品对于我而言，进入流畅的阅读状态比较困难，一旦在阅读的中途因为生活琐碎打断之...
用戶評價
是一本要很仔細analyze纔能感到趣味的書，jen campbell的分析就講得很好。非常plotless並政治性，比起閱讀的快感，還是分析的快感比較多
评分Love is won. Love is lost. Hope goes hand in hand with hopelessness. A perfect book about nothing, a puckish, flippant celebration of style.
评分又刷瞭一遍，還是喜歡。老人與女孩的情緣，讓人想起"盲龜浮木"的典故，隔著將近七十年的光陰，她愛上瞭他，一直愛著他，而他在死亡與記憶與夢的邊緣逡巡徘徊，終於逆流迴返，迴嚮生命，迴嚮她。每個章節的第一句(或半句)都用黑字加粗，一開始還以為連在一起會是詩或歌詞，不過大多是提示時間節點，我以為結構上頭是collage(拼貼畫)的模式，時間碎片打亂重組。不過ali smith自己倒像是給齣來瞭這部作品結構構思的官方答案: p175 Time travel is real, we do it all the time. Moment to moment, minute to minute. 毫無疑問，這本書的構架編排是time -travel，其實開頭說的"盲龜浮木"不也是一種time-travel?
评分Smith is definitely an author to look out for. Her writing is so unique, observant and creative. I was in treat with playful language.
评分尤其喜歡有關Pauline Boty的部分，在藝術史的真實與虛構之間遊走，就跟How to be both一樣。
