"A brave and remarkable novel, the impact of which no reader will shed" - Dermot Bolger, "Sunday Independent". Richard Garay lives alone with his mother, hiding his sexuality from her and from those around him. Stifled by a job he despises, he finds himself willing to take considerable risks. Set in Argentina in a time of great change, "The Story of the Night" is a powerful and moving novel about a man who, as the Falklands War is fought and lost, finds his own way to emerge into the world.""The Story of the Night" is, in the end, a love story of the most serious and difficult kind. Toibin has told it with profound artistry and truth." - Tobias Wolff. "Nobody before Toibin has made such honesty stand so clearly for political and personal integrity...In each of his first three novels, he has invented a strong central character, but Garay is by far his most memorable" - Edmund White, "Sunday Times". "A remarkable achievement...The ease, the fluidity, the economy, the precision of Toibin's masterly prose make this novel sheer pleasure to read" - Norman Thomas di Giovanni, "The Times".

實在不能和後來的作品比，平心而論最多三星，多齣來的一星其實是為瞭那些很私人化的細節吧。
评分拋開故事的主題和地點設置差異之外，總感覺跟Toibin的其他書相比有些不同，不過語言都是很質樸的，很好讀的一本書。/ 三年後重讀這本書，除瞭為Richard和Pablo的感情唏噓之外，更加關注七八十年代南美社會變動的大背景、Richard母親對自己的身份認同、以及AIDS這場改變同誌史甚至人類史的plague在九十年代前後對患者尤其是同性戀者的巨大影響。還在考慮會不會用這部作品寫畢業論文，至少身體政治這方麵已經有人涉及到瞭。
评分surprisingly easy to read. it's just a tragic life stretching in front of you. even before you realize it, your life comes to a sudden end..
