Liars in Love is concerned with troubled relations and the elusive nature of truth:
Hope, dread, disorder, and a nervous entangling of separate lives in Greenwich Village during the Depression, as seen by a child, in 'Oh, Joseph, I’m So Tired'. The volatile, perilous course of events set in motion when two divorced mothers agree to “pool their resources” and live together, with their children in 'Trying Out for the Race'. A young American soldier’s too-abrupt postwar reunion, on foreign soil, with the lovely, dismayingly grown-up sister he hasn’t seen since he was eleven and she was ten, in 'A Compassionate Leave'.
The seven stories in this collection showcase Yates's extraordinary gift for observation and description. The last and longest of them, a rich, lucid, and compelling piece called 'Saying Goodbye to Sally', achieves a fitting conclusion for the book – and a resonant final statement of its theme.
Richard Yates was born in 1926 in New York and lived in California. His prize-winning stories began to appear in 1953 and his first novel, Revolutionary Road, was nominated for the National Book Award in 1961. He is the author of eight other works, including the novels A Good School, The Easter Parade, and Disturbing the Peace, and two collections of short stories, Eleven Kinds of Loneliness and Liars in Love.
Yates 的短篇一如既往地好看 展现在我们面前的是一个个普通人的人生侧面:从给罗斯福做头像的女雕塑家的儿子,到为爱嫁给离婚导师的Nice girl;从寄居英国留学却妻离子散偶遇流莺的留学生,到战后滞留法国梦想艳遇的士兵.....不过一个个短篇中的人物,都带着灰色的背影,不是这样的不如意,例如离婚而索居;就是那样的不如意,职场失意,情场也失意。想着Yates本身也是酗酒如命而在美国文坛不如意,他笔下人物的不幸也就好理解了。不过世人不都是这样,意淫别人的痛苦,自己也许就可以从人生的痛苦解脱。

评分#耶茨的短篇小说中充满了失意者——但是就是这样丧丧的文风,却给我带来了莫大的安慰。非常喜欢他对小说节奏的把握,可以说是驾轻就熟。
评分故事没有跌宕起伏,也并非平铺直叙。读完整本书都没有找到畅快淋漓的感觉。但这种给自己添堵的书我居然这么喜欢。

一个作家写什么往往和他本人的生活经历很有关系,孤独者写孤独,胜利者歌颂胜利,失败者为失败做注解,因为切身,往往有独到之处。理查德·耶茨的小说集《恋爱中的骗子》,就围绕一个主题而写———失意的人和失败的人生。 耶茨本人,就是一个典型的失败者,不仅生前籍籍无名...

评分翻譯真糟糕,讀起來特別痛苦,速度很慢。我用看完一本《動物農場》的時間,才勉強爬完《戀愛中的騙子》第一篇小說《哦,約瑟夫,我很累》。幸好不是買的~~~ 下面說說閱讀中發現的問題。 一、 人稱代詞使用頻繁。尤其在一句話中不停重複。隨便找一段: 在【她】父親來看望【她...
