A sequel to one of Lessing's most celebrated novels, 'The Fifth Child'. Many will recall the powerful impact 'The Fifth Child', Doris Lessing's 1988 novel, made on publication. Its account of idyllic marital and parental bliss irredeemably shattered by the arrival of the feral fifth child of the Lovatts made for unnerving and compulsive reading. That child, Ben, now grown to legal maturity, is the central character of this sequel, which picks up the fable at the end of his childhood and takes our primal, misunderstood, maladjusted teenager out into the world, where again he meets mostly with mockery, fear and incomprehension but with just enough kindness and openness to keep him afloat as his adventures take him from London to the south of France and on to South America in his restless quest for community, companionship and peace. Doris Lessing, in this book, employs a plain, unadorned prose fit for fables; again, we have a childlike perspective at the heart of the book; again, the world in all its malevolence and misapprehenison swirls around at the edge, while, occasionally, a strong character steps forward to try to stake out some values and practise some good behaviour.

因为一直对儿童感兴趣,初次看到薄薄的一本灰色暗纸花纹的书时,就被它麻布的质感以及烫印的黑色金属般的字给吸引了。第五个孩子?会有什么样子的呢?像安徒生童话里面上帝赐予的安吉尔吗?哦,那一定是一个特别可爱迷人的小家伙。 打开封面,莱辛的文字简练而平易,读起来如行...
評分我想我读不懂这本书,读一本书,其实你读得不是那本书,不是作者写的那个故事,而是你自己,你的悟性,你的阅历,你和作者的共鸣。要读懂一本书,有时候是需要阅历的,需要情感的回应。也许在长大一点,我会读得懂,读得懂ben那种寂寞,恐惧,爱他的那些人的纠结。

評分07年的VISION咋就比09年的好看呢,不好看的竟然还多了十块,经济海啸下我忽然觉得路边摊买过期杂志的都被淹没了。打开一翻就看到一个金色方便面头的美女在她的座驾一台老式单车上比中指。那牛逼程度让我想到了Doris lessing,像个祖母一样的诺贝尔得住,俯视着这个社会,和那些...
