"[An] ingenious work that circles around the rise of a state, the tragic destiny of a mother, a boy’s creation of a new self." — The New Yorker
A family saga and a magical self-portrait of a writer who witnessed the birth of a nation and lived through its turbulent history. A Tale of Love and Darkness is the story of a boy who grows up in war-torn Jerusalem, in a small apartment crowded with books in twelve languages and relatives speaking nearly as many. The story of an adolescent whose life has been changed forever by his mother’s suicide. The story of a man who leaves the constraints of his family and community to join a kibbutz, change his name, marry, have children. The story of a writer who becomes an active participant in the political life of his nation.
"One of the most enchanting and deeply satisfying books that I have read in many years." — New Republic

评分在我还是个无所事事的大学生时,有一天,我看到了一本书… 场景是这样的:一个中国青年在大学图书馆的角落里,捧着一本厚重的大书。书的封面是一面黑灰色的墙,右下角印有一个老人的人像:他轻轻微笑着,准备跟读者讲一个故事。故事发生在亚洲大陆的另一端,当这个故事发生的...
评分斷斷續續花了兩年看完了《愛與黑暗的故事》,當初不知怎麼擱下了,這幾天讀完了後面三分之一,還覺意猶未竟,隨便先打點感想,準備再慢慢讀一次。 這本書不知道該說是小說或是自傳,大約是六分事實四分創造吧,裡面記載著大大小小的瑣事,很難說是完全如實描繪的。 有論者以...
评分 评分细腻柔美的同时又大气和发人深省。认真研读就会发现它内涵丰富,但平时随便看看也不会觉得沉重晦涩。
评分Maybe that’s a good story. But I was blocked by too many place names. Sure can better appreciate the work after a trip to the great Jerusalem.
