Peter and Rebecca Harris: mid-forties denizens of Manhattan’s SoHo, nearing the apogee of committed careers in the artshe a dealer, she an editor. With a spacious loft, a college-age daughter in Boston, and lively friends, they are admirable, enviable contemporary urbanites with every reason, it seems, to be happy. Then Rebecca’s much younger look-alike brother, Ethan (known in thefamily as Mizzy, the mistake”), shows up for a visit. A beautiful, beguiling twenty-three-year-old with a history of drug problems, Mizzy is wayward, at loose ends, looking for direction. And in his presence, Peter finds himself questioning his artists, their work, his careerthe entire world he has so carefully constructed.
Like his legendary, Pulitzer Prizewinning novel, The Hours , Michael Cunningham’s masterly new novel is a heartbreaking look at the way we live now. Full of shocks and aftershocks, it makes us think and feel deeply about the uses and meaning of beauty and the place of love in our lives.

作者简介:普利策奖得主Michael Cunningham 的新书《 By Nightfall》。 因为牵扯到同性恋题材,估计好莱坞的文艺片商们很快就看瞄上这本书。相信大家都听说过根据他的经典小说改编的奥斯卡经典【时时刻刻】。这可不是他的第一本同性恋小说,电影【天涯家园】的原著小说同样出自...
评分 评分对没腰封的书都很有好感。 其实看的时候,好像就在看豆瓣的帖子,真的,看的时候还想,这不就是豆瓣的奇葩综合帖吗!很多豆瓣上奇葩的影子,后来想可能书里描述的浮躁,不踏实,说的多,做的少等等现象,与在豆瓣直播的这些帖子太像了。所以会有看书在上豆瓣的感觉吧! 其实...

Too gay to emphasize
评分有妻有女有事业的他,在他的小舅子身上看到的,是毕露的美,是恣肆的自由,是真实的被压抑或遗忘的自己?真情也好,诡计也好,那个吻让一切重新开始。
评分Too gay to emphasize
评分荔枝上只找到第一部分,都一小时了好像男二还木有出来, 倒是把味如嚼蜡的婚后生活描述得令人发怵…不知道今天是不是火焰山呀~搓手期待ing
评分看完之后我心情很沮丧,现在还是很沮丧,这本书让我想到了不起的狐狸爸爸,我觉得大概人到中年都会想做一些混账事,但是一想自己前半生好不容易积累起来的稳定就又退缩了
