First published in 1993, "The Virgin Suicides" announced the arrival of a major new American novelist. In a quiet suburb of Detroit, the five Lisbon sisters--beautiful, eccentric, and obsessively watched by the neighborhood boys--commit suicide one by one over the course of a single year. As the boys observe them from afar, transfixed, they piece together the mystery of the family's fatal melancholy, in this hypnotic and unforgettable novel of adolescent love, disquiet, and death. Jeffrey Eugenides evokes the emotions of youth with haunting sensitivity and dark humor and creates a coming-of-age story unlike any of our time. Adapted into a critically acclaimed film by Sofia Coppola, "The Virgin Suicides" is a modern classic, a lyrical and timeless tale of sex and suicide that transforms and mythologizes suburban middle-American life.
JEFFREY EUGENIDES was born in Detroit and attended Brown and Stanford universities. The Virgin Suicides was published in 1993 and was adapted into a motion picture in 1999 by Sophia Coppola. His second novel, Middlesex, won the Pulitzer Prize in 2003. He joined the faculty of Princeton University in the fall of 2007.
到了最后一章,基本是一目十行的看。这本书所呈现的样子和我的期待不一样。 我喜欢序言所说的:自杀是真正严肃的哲学问题;死亡是生命中不得不承认的一部分。结束自己生命的原因在于必然要滑向这个结果的人的宿命感,这一宿命感是许多人绕不过、逃不掉的阴影,笼罩在他们活着...
评分摘录自本书最后一段: “从本质上讲,这些自杀不是源于悲痛的心情或是神秘的力量,而是源于单纯的自私心态,姑娘们把本该留给上帝做的决定握在了自己的手中。她们变得无比强大,强大的都无法在我们身边生活了,她们太关注自我,把未来看的太透彻,以至于对现状成了睁眼瞎。徘...

评分这是一个孩子们都不唱儿歌的年代。 昨晚临睡前看完了《处女自杀》(我总想译成处女当自杀,嗯,不好意思),光影与气味如影随形。和过气的男孩们一起循着气味回忆里士本家的女孩们,不再年轻的声音穿过时间,听来像是沾带着尘埃、蜘蛛网,和很久很久以前钻进树屋里窥望她们的...

杀人不见血。
评分Eugenides is so good at writing. Want more of his books.
评分最后一章才是整本书的精华,一个美国中产家庭少年的视角,带来的是名正言顺的忧郁、青涩固执的窥探和恰到好处的批判;那些少女始终听不到我们在门外的声音,残酷的青春期和结伴自杀的少女,终于成为了人生中静止的一点。
评分Is dullness a gift? intelligence a curse?
评分滚去down映画~~~
