具体描述
In the twenty-five years since its first publication, "Waterland" has established itself as one of the classics of the twentieth century. This anniversary edition, with a new introduction by the author, celebrates a novel that is a visionary tale of England's Fen country, a sinuous meditation on the workings of history, and a family story startling in its detail and universal in its reach.'Graham Swift has mapped his "Waterland" like a new Wessex. He appropriates the Fens as Moby Dick did whaling or "Wuthering Heights" the moors.
This is a beautiful, serious and intelligent novel, admirably ambitious and original' - "Observer".
'Perfectly controlled, superbly written. "Waterland" is original, compelling and narration of the highest order' - "Guardian".
'"Waterland" is a formidably intelligent book, animated by an impressive, angry pity at what human creatures are capable of doing to one another in the name of love and need. The most powerful novel I have read for some time' - "New York Review of Books".

评分虽然推荐这本书的人跟我在思想上有诸多相似处，一开始我并没对它抱太大期望，原因是担心风格太文艺晦涩，可能不是我的类型。现在我知道自己先入为主的看法错了，这本小说确实很文艺，但外表文艺的同时也很有内在的料。 设定极具野心，而最终Graham Swift可以说是成功了：很少...
评分喜欢这种叙事方式的人 也会喜欢 微物之神 吧 初看摸不着头脑的述说 直到看完全书后 才能体会到故事发生时的沧桑感 当我们还不知道发生什么事情时 悲伤的事 快乐的事 不应该发生的事 疯狂的事 已经静静地发生过了 等到合上书 所有的事情就这样平静地浮现在眼前 因为它们都过...
