In these spellbinding stories, Yiyun Li, Hemingway Foundation/PEN Award winner and acclaimed author of A Thousand Years of Good Prayers and The Vagrants , gives us exquisite fiction filled with suspense, depth, and beauty, in which history, politics, and folklore magnificently illuminate the human condition.
In the title story, a professor introduces her middle-aged son to a favorite student, unaware of the student’s true affections. In “A Man Like Him,” a lifelong bachelor finds kinship with a man wrongly accused of an indiscretion. In “The Proprietress,” a reporter from Shanghai travels to a small town to write an article about the local prison, only to discover a far more intriguing story involving a shopkeeper who offers refuge to the wives and children of inmates. In “House Fire,” a young man who suspects his father of sleeping with the young man’s wife seeks the help of a detective agency run by a group of feisty old women.
Written in lyrical prose and with stunning honesty, Gold Boy, Emerald Girl reveals worlds strange and familiar, and cultures both traditional and modern, to create a mesmerizing and vibrant landscape of life.
Yiyun Li grew up in Beijing, China, and moved to the United States after she got B.S. from Peking University in 1996. She received an MFA in creative nonfiction from the Nonfiction Writing Program at the University of Iowa and an MFA in fiction from the Iowa Writers' Workshop. Her stories and essays have been published in The New Yorker,[2] The Paris Review, and Zoetrope: All-Story. Two of the stories from A Thousand Years of Good Prayers were adapted into films: The Princess of Nebraska and the title story, which Li adapted herself.
She lives in Oakland, California, with her husband and their two sons, and teaches at University of California, Davis.
2018.6.22-7.4. 最後一個最好看 其他都不太有興趣 讀瞭兩個李翊雲的小說集一本自傳體,我覺得李雖然可貴但還是有她的局限。不容易。寫書到最後可能也是一份苦工 而我可能還是更喜歡看到作者的天賦。
評分They are half orphans. They were lonely and sad people, all three of them, and they would not make one another less sad, but they could, with great care, make a world that would accommodate their loneliness.
評分2015.1.13 - 2.26
評分不是每一個故事都喜歡,但是我喜歡她故事裏的孤獨感。以旁觀者的口吻講述,有種波瀾不驚的意象,更能觸動我。
評分寫給美國人看的中國故事。如果翻譯成中文,我覺得故事都很俗套。

評分“他们三个人都孤独而悲伤,他们不能减少对方的悲伤,但还可以小心翼翼地让这世界容纳他们的孤独。“李翊云最新的短篇集《金童玉女》,以这句话作结。这句话正是此书最好的结语:对孤独与悲伤探讨贯穿全书,而这两个主题从她的上一本作品《千年敬祈》中延续至今。 李翊云从不讳...
評分从New Yorker的一篇小说知道Yiyun Li。之前微博关注了一个同在纽约的文青博主,经常性地哀叹如果她可以早十年离开中国的话现在肯定能用英文写得一手好文章。可是Li本科毕业才出国,却可以用英文写小说并且写得这样好,我都没法再给自己找借口了。 New Yorker上那篇并没看完,...
評分On Kindness - A profound story. It is beyond sadness and grief, purely depressing, with the coldness and the indifference shimmering out, filling the air, until it is almost unbearable. Yet near the end of the story, it changed into something slightly more ...
