瑪麗·安·謝弗(Mary Ann Shaffer,1934—2008)

美國作傢。曾任齣版社編輯、圖書館員、書店店員,最大的夢想便是寫作、齣版一本自己的書。

1976年,她在赴倫敦旅行中一時興起飛往根西島,返程時因大霧受睏機場,隻得待在男洗手間一邊靠烘手機取暖,一邊讀完瞭機場書店的所有圖書,從此與根西島結下一世情緣。多年後,在朋友慫恿之下,她拿起筆一圓創作夢,將故事背景設定在魂牽夢繞的根西島。作品尚未結稿,已在歐美的齣版界與坊間不脛流傳。

遺憾的是,2008年2月,圖書齣版前夕,瑪麗不幸病逝。《齣版傢周刊》特為她刊齣訃聞,這是對新人作傢少有的高規格待遇。

安妮·拜羅斯(Annie Barrows)

美國著名童書作傢,瑪麗的外甥女,在姨媽因病無法繼續寫作時,毅然放下瞭自己手中的書,接手文稿的全部修訂工作,最終完成整部作品,並使作品在全球獲得無限贊譽與光榮。

2008年夏,《根西島文學與土豆皮餡餅俱樂部》甫一齣版,立即受到讀者和媒體的如潮好評,成為全美各大書店的“夏季主打”,第一周便登上《紐約時報》暢銷書榜。2009年初,以毫無爭議的優勢成為《紐約時報》《華盛頓郵報》《今日美國》等美國幾乎所有重要媒體的“年度好書”。該書在英、法、德等幾十個國傢和地區陸續齣版,引發瞭全球讀者的無限迴響和深深共鳴……

“ I wonder how the book got to Guernsey? Perhaps there is some sort of secret homing instinct in books that brings them to their perfect readers.” January 1946: London is emerging from the shadow of the Second World War, and writer Juliet Ashton is looking for her next book subject. Who could imagine that she would find it in a letter from a man she’s never met, a native of the island of Guernsey, who has come across her name written inside a book by Charles Lamb….

As Juliet and her new correspondent exchange letters, Juliet is drawn into the world of this man and his friends—and what a wonderfully eccentric world it is. The Guernsey Literary and Potato Peel Pie Society—born as a spur-of-the-moment alibi when its members were discovered breaking curfew by the Germans occupying their island—boasts a charming, funny, deeply human cast of characters, from pig farmers to phrenologists, literature lovers all.

Juliet begins a remarkable correspondence with the society’s members, learning about their island, their taste in books, and the impact the recent German occupation has had on their lives. Captivated by their stories, she sets sail for Guernsey, and what she finds will change her forever.

Written with warmth and humor as a series of letters, this novel is a celebration of the written word in all its guises, and of finding connection in the most surprising ways.

题外:这部书在西方实在有名,以致都不太敢说话,怕惹了人怒。 一,翻译 95 这本书不是靠故事取胜,而是靠文字取胜,因此能将这些文字的伟大翻出来,实在要些本事。 文字读来温润感怀,如见故人,很是不错了。缺憾是某些细节的转圜上,若再多些润滑,就更美些了。 二,故事 8...  

評分

初见此书差点直接败走——畅销书、长得吓人的名字、漂亮得犹如明信片的封面,各种令人敬而远之的元素都齐备了。翻开来一看居然还是书信体——絮叨散漫、厘不清的人物称谓、交错着回忆和现实、文字中溢出了眼花缭乱的致意。然而读下去,便让我忘记了这是个下雨的黄昏,一...
