From Matt Haig's Twitter: 'It is about a library between life and death where a woman gets to try all her other lives she could have lived. It will be out next September if I actually finish it.
Nora feels swamped by all the bad choices she has made in life and attempts to take her own life. Then, when given the chance to see all the ways her life could have been different, she must finally work out the answer to the ultimate question: what is the best way to live?.'
Matt Haig was born in Sheffield, England in1975. He writes books for both adults and children, often blending the worlds of domestic reality and outright fantasy, with a quirky twist. His bestselling novels are translated into 28 languages. The Guardian has described his writing as 'delightfully weird' and the New York Times has called him 'a novelist of great talent' whose writing is 'funny, riveting and heartbreaking'.
His novels for adults are The Last Family in England, narrated by a labrador and optioned for film by Brad Pitt; The Dead Fathers Club (2006), an update of Hamlet featuring an 11-year-old boy; The Possession of Mr Cave (2008), about a man obsessed with his daughter's safety, and The Radleys (2010) which won Channel 4's TV Book Club public vote and was shortlisted for a Galaxy National Book Award (UK). The film rights to all his adult novels have been sold. His next adult novel is The Humans (2013).
His multi-award winning popular first novel for children, Shadow Forest, was published in 2007 and its sequel, The Runaway Troll, in 2009. His most recent children's novel is To Be A Cat (2012).
可读性很强的小说。主人公Nora生活在自幼出生的小镇上,度过了悲惨的一天,她被老板辞退失业了,她养了多年的猫被撞死,她给唯一的好朋友发送的消息被已阅不回,她生活中所剩不多的乐趣—教男孩音乐,也被男孩家长告知以后终止。回想过去的人生,Nora觉得自己的人生充满遗憾,...
评分如果有Midnight Library,我们会不会就不那么惧怕死亡? 如果有Midnight Library,我们会不会就不再避讳遗憾与悔恨? 对我来说,The Midnight Library是对这一世的救赎,是在生与死之间最后的“落子有悔”。 可是,我们没有Midnight Library。我们只是我们,只有一世,只这一生...
评分 评分 评分为了猫还有我的灵感忍痛加一星。 读这本书的时候,发现女主有很多后悔没做的事情(谁不是呢)。但是那些后悔的事情多数是自相矛盾的。比如女主前几年后悔自己选了哲学没选地质学,后几年又后悔自己没读哲学系硕士……我突然醒悟所有的后悔都是基于当下的感受,没有一个永恒的解...
听完了音频版,感觉也没有必要买实体书看,很简单的故事
评分穿越时空过时了?试试虚拟人生。一个生无可恋的女人Nora,在死亡之际进入了夹在生与死之间的空间:一个图书馆。这里时间停滞,书架无限延伸,每一本书都是Nora人生的一个可能性,有的完成了儿时的梦想,有的坚持了擅长的事,有的名利双收,有的再普通不过,还能遇见同样在体验人生的过客,可哪一个都无法满足Nora。整体的节奏不错,故事里面能看到作者自身经历的影子,但作者想要传达的信息过于直白,结局毫无悬念。
评分沒完沒了絮絮叨叨罐裝雞湯,唯一的好處在是聽的audible不佔用我珍貴的用眼時間
评分算是有疫情时代特色的书。听的BBC的有声书,演绎得有声有色的。故事说不上新但是给我带来了一些惊喜。敞开心扉并不是一件容易的事情。害怕被拒绝,勇敢地面对,勇敢地感受苦痛。
