From the internationally bestselling, Pulitzer Prize—winning author, a superbly crafted new work of fiction: eight stories that take us from Cambridge and Seattle to India and Thailand.
In the stunning title story, Ruma, a young mother in a new city, is visited by her father, who carefully tends the earth of her garden, where he and his grandson form a special bond. But he’s harboring a secret from his daughter, a love affair he’s keeping all to himself. In “A Choice of Accommodations,” a husband’s attempt to turn an old friend’s wedding into a romantic getaway weekend with his wife takes a dark, revealing turn as the party lasts deep into the night. In “Only Goodness,” a sister eager to give her younger brother the perfect childhood she never had is overwhelmed by guilt, anguish, and anger when his alcoholism threatens her family. And in “Hema and Kaushik,” a trio of linked stories–a luminous, intensely compelling elegy of life, death, love, and fate–we follow the lives of a girl and boy who, one winter, share a house in Massachusetts. They travel from innocence to experience on separate, sometimes painful paths, until destiny brings them together again years later in Rome.
这位作者的书国内出版了三本,本本经典,不是文学上的珠穆朗玛峰那种高度,属于平原风光的旖旎,有些发现非常微妙,切入非常巧妙,值得收藏阅读。之前的《疾病解说者》与《同名人》都是顶呱呱的,《同名人》属于长篇,一点也不亚于她的短篇,叙述沉稳流畅,没有太多火化,却能...
評分充满的东方文化和细腻情感的书。 很久之前读的了,看泡芙小姐时,里面说的。好奇就买来看了,当时家庭关系还不较复杂,读里面好几个关于婚姻关系的故事,心里有些小小的震撼,原来心灵还可以是这样的。似乎某部分确实了,或许从来就没找到过。
評分美籍孟加拉裔印度移民茱帕•拉希里的短篇小说集《不适之地》,好到让人吃惊。 春节过后,飞去外地与亲友小聚,行前抓本薄点的书飞机上读。去途第一篇,也就是用作书名的《不适之地》读了一半,虽被其纤细、安静的书写所吸引,但由于近在眉睫的相聚,并不太能静下心来。久别...
評分 評分在当今世界文坛,茱帕·拉希里(Jhumpa Lahiri)不算有名,尽管出了三部小说,但三部小说多少都具有某种同质性:性别的不平等、爱情的永恒缺憾,移民的身份焦虑,海海人间的种种隔阂。这种同质性或许和作者的经历有关。作为孟加拉裔印度移民的后代,她生在英国,长在美国,同时...

评分ST. LOUIS COUNTY LIBRARY 流齣+毛邊,不如作者的第一部短篇集
评分以後要是教英文係,一定會把這本書推薦給學生。作者很擅長用樸素平時的語言勾勒齣人與人之間復雜微妙的情感。每個短片都有不同的敘事視角,每個細節都閤情閤理地安排在敘事結構中,不多不少,連貫一緻。要搞英文創作,這是一本不錯的範例。
