具體描述
From the internationally acclaimed, best-selling author of The English Patient: a mesmerizing new novel that tells a dramatic story set in the decade after World War II through the lives of a small group of unexpected characters and two teenagers whose lives are indelibly shaped by their unwitting involvement.
In a narrative as beguiling and mysterious as memory itself--shadowed and luminous at once--we read the story of fourteen-year-old Nathaniel, and his older sister, Rachel. In 1945, just after World War II, they stay behind in London when their parents move to Singapore, leaving them in the care of a mysterious figure named The Moth. They suspect he might be a criminal, and they grow both more convinced and less concerned as they come to know his eccentric crew of friends: men and women joined by a shared history of unspecified service during the war, all of whom seem, in some way, determined now to protect, and educate (in rather unusual ways) Rachel and Nathaniel. But are they really what and who they claim to be? And what does it mean when the siblings' mother returns after months of silence without their father, explaining nothing, excusing nothing? A dozen years later, Nathaniel begins to uncover all that he didn't know and understand in that time, and it is this journey--through facts, recollection, and imagination--that he narrates in this masterwork from one of the great writers of our time.

讀後感
“1945 年，我们的父母走了，把我们留给两个可能是罪犯的人照看。”(In 1945 our parents went away and left us in the care of two men who may have been criminals.) 这是《战时灯火》开头的第一句话。如果去掉时间 1945 年和地点伦敦，完全可以直接开始一个续写大赛，让走...
評分文 / 芮娜 本书是《英国病人》作者迈克尔·翁达杰的新作《战时灯火》，在书的腰封上，我们可以看到它的宣传语是“诺贝尔奖得主石黑一雄熟读到可以背出来的书”。其实石黑一雄对翁达杰及其作品的喜爱几乎人尽皆知。据说，石黑一雄熟读《战时灯火》到可以随口说出书中细节的程度...
評分（文章见于晶报深港书评） 文/俞耕耘 翁达杰曾说，他写小说就像抽丝剥茧的考古，呈现过去，重返现在。这其实是自诩一种才华：让想象逼近现实，使细节变为结构，承载生活。这位获得金布克奖的作家，以《英国病人》一书闻名于世。2018年，小说《战时灯火》入围布克奖，再次显示了...

封麵很傳神瞭：故事中加上迷霧、噪點，是倫敦的基調是戰爭的暗湧。作者的筆觸是往故事上營造其顆粒感，過期膠捲與雙重曝光。初期如同愛麗絲漫遊仙境般，有種探險的刺激感。隨著故事往前推進，就不再是一場愉悅的冒險瞭。是英國病人的味道（並未讀過其他小說），語言依舊很美，但更為緻鬱一些。沒想到後麵還有講到……布局也是很精心。有時候確實是能猜到故事的走嚮，所以可能略有點刻意。
评分棄瞭的。

评分what I am now was formed by whatever happened to me then, not by what I have achieved, but by how I got here. 一點點剝開迷霧 細膩 動人
