Meloy’s first return to short stories since her critically acclaimed debut, Both Ways Is the Only Way I Want It is an extraordinary new work from one of the most promising writers of the last decade.
Eleven unforgettable new stories demonstrate the emotional power and the clean, assured style that have earned Meloy praise from critics and devotion from readers. Propelled by a terrific instinct for storytelling, and concerned with the convolutions of modern love and the importance of place, this collection is about the battlefields—and fields of victory—that exist in seemingly harmless spaces, in kitchens and living rooms and cars. Set mostly in the American West, the stories feature small-town lawyers, ranchers, doctors, parents, and children, and explore the moral quandaries of love, family, and friendship. A ranch hand falls for a recent law school graduate who appears unexpectedly— and reluctantly—in his remote Montana town. A young father opens his door to find his dead grandmother standing on the front step. Two women weigh love and betrayal during an early snow. Throughout the book, Meloy examines the tensions between having and wanting, as her characters try to keep hold of opposing forces in their lives: innocence and experience, risk and stability, fidelity and desire.
Knowing, sly, and bittersweet, Both Ways Is the Only Way I Want It confirms Maile Meloy’s singular literary talent. Her lean, controlled prose, full of insight and unexpected poignancy, is the perfect complement to her powerfully moving storytelling.
With the succinct stories that have become her signature, Maile Meloy has graced literary publications from The New Yorker to The Paris Review and Best New American Voices. Her first published story collection, Half in Love, promises to bring Meloy's acclaimed vignettes to an even wider audience.
太小我了,所以最小我的兄弟滑雪记还更鲜活一点。很多篇在以为要结束的节点其实只到一半,修正了狭隘的我。
评分似乎到处都潜伏着一种危机,你也可以把它解读为两面性。最后,附加上NYT上的书评:http://www.nytimes.com/2009/07/12/books/review/Sittenfeld-t.html
评分读完整本,我不禁开始怀疑对开篇的喜欢是不是因为经过了影像的熏陶?显然电影对<Travis, B.>的改编拿捏得非常棒,无论是整体悄无声息的风格,空旷平凡中涌动的情绪,故事的简单与内心的波澜反差,以及女主衣着、吃饭模样的细节刻画,都做到了影像与文本同样出色(也许正是文本的简练给了影像发挥的空间),当然了把男孩子换成女孩子更是电影的神来之笔。不过越往后读惊喜越少,第二和第三篇还算挺喜欢,再后面出轨主题重复的有点多,有几篇场景集中在室内对话显得短而狭窄。感觉下来确实她的书还是比较适合影像化的。
评分I just cannot bring myself to give a shit about the characters... no connection whatsoever... 好像能感受到作者想走的文风方向,但最后结果文笔过于平淡。听的有声书,narrator们非常好,算是个亮点

平日喜欢看电影,我超爱凯莉·雷查德,特别是《米克的近路》,那是一部反类型的杰作:传统西部片中由男性主导的暴力性景观,转化为女性的沉默、忍耐和长途跋涉……雷查德拒绝了戏剧性,拒绝观众的眼光,转而向生活本身的真实性靠拢,以剧中女性的视角,塑成一个更为完整的世界...
评分一个来自偏远农场的年轻人,偶遇一名法学院毕业的女生。他羞涩地邀她骑马,感受背后的她“嵌进他的身体,仿佛一块缺失已久的拼图”;一个年轻的父亲打开门,发现自己死去的祖母站在台阶上;两个女人在纷飞的大雪中权衡着爱情和背叛;此外,还有一位失落的老人、一个嫉妒的父亲...
评分花了两天的时间读完了《两全其美》,最开始被这本书吸引的是它的英文名,Both ways is the only way I want it,当时想着,为什么把这句话翻译为两全其美呢,于是抱着这种疑惑与好奇翻完了这11个小故事。 11个小故事,关于心动,关于悸动,关于选择,关于拥有与失去。每一个短...
