Anita Brookner published her first novel, A Start In Life in 1981. Her most notable novel, her fourth, Hotel du Lac won the Man Booker Prize in 1984. Her novel, The Next Big Thing was longlisted (alongside John Banville's, Shroud) in 2002 for the Man Booker Prize. She has published over 25 works of fiction, notably: Strangers (2009) shortlisted for the James Tait Black Memorial Prize, Fraud (1992) and, The Rules of Engagement (2003). She is also the first female to hold a Slade Professorship of Fine Arts at Cambridge University.
Kitty Maule longs to be "totally unreasonable, totally unfair, very demanding, and very beautiful." She is instead clever, reticent, self-possessed, and striking. For years.

評分一口气读完,应该算是近期内读过的最好的小说。结构精巧,层次非常丰富,几条主线同时进行:女主角家世引出父母辈往事和上世纪风俗人情,女主角和同事的相处,和心仪男士的感情互动,还有对小说《阿道尔夫》的课堂解读贯穿始终。其中还有一些不显眼的隐线,比如女主角的两个朋...
評分 評分女性作傢的作品,充滿瞭各種心理活動的描寫,有些沉悶,沒有太多故事情節,總是被女主緊張兮兮的情緒壓著,不喜歡這種類型。
评分私以為這本比獲過奬的杜蘭葛酒店要好。。。對女性處境的探討很現實也很“福樓拜”。。。
评分魚竿醬推薦。
