What We Talk About When We Talk About Love pdf epub mobi txt 电子书 下载 2025
Carver was born into a poverty-stricken family at the tail-end of the Depression. The son of a violent alcoholic, he married at 19, started a series of menial jobs and his own career of 'full-time drinking as a serious pursuit'. A career that would eventually kill him. Constantly struggling to support his wife and family Carver enrolled in a writing programme under author John Gardner in 1958 and he saw this as a turning point.
Rejecting the more experimental fiction of the 60s and 70s, he pioneered a precisionist realism reinventing the American short story during the eighties, heading the line of so-called 'dirty realists' or 'K-mart realists'. Set in trailer parks and shopping malls they are stories of banal lives that turn on a seeminlgy insignificant detail. Carver writes with meticulous economy suddenly bringing a life into focus in a similar way to the paintings of Edward Hopper. As well as a master of the short story he was an accomplished poet publishing several highly acclaimed volumes.
After the 'line of demarcation' in Carver's life - 2 June 1977, the day he stopped drinking - his stories become increasingly more redemptive and expansive. Alcohol had eventually shattered his health, his work and his family - his first marriage effectively ending in 1978. He finally married his long-term parter Tess Gallagher (they met ten years earlier at a writers' conference in Dallas) in Reno less than two months before he eventually lost his fight with cancer.

In his second collection of stories, as in his first, Carver's characters are peripheral people--people without education, insight or prospects, people too unimaginative to even give up. Carver celebrates these men and women.

第一本fiction
评分every little tiny aspect of hopelessness in life. haven't read novels that contain numerous detailed description for a while..
评分1、短篇小说真是不经读，分分钟读完的节奏。2、对“极简主义”没研究，好朋友硕士论文作得这个，但粗读来觉得卡弗的极简尚不如海明威不成理论的惜字如金有味道。3、想起来傅老师谈曼斯菲尔德时说过小作家与大作家的区别，不敢说卡弗究竟算不算大作家，然而可以知道的是他并不信任自己的读者，总忍不住想为他们解开自己作品的真谛。
评分看不懂草！
评分一般般 不对味 有几篇还蛮好的
