Emma Morley and Dexter Mayhew, casual acquaintances during their university years, spend graduation night together. It’s July 15, 1988, and their futures are up in the air. Dexter, the handsome, confident son of a well-to-do family, knows only that he wants “to be successful. . . . to live life to the extreme, but without any mess or complications” [p. 9]. Emma is determined to stay true to her left-leaning passions and ideals though she has little idea of how she’ll do it. They part the next day with vague promises to keep in touch as Dexter sets off to travel the world and Emma returns to her working-class family in Leeds to figure out what she’ll do next. Over the next twenty years, they’ll think about each other, sometimes to meet and reignite a relationship that neither can give up nor explain. One Day revisits Dexter and Emma every year on the anniversary of their first night together. Each July 15th becomes a snapshot of a particular time and place, offering an irresistible and often hilarious chronicle of the lovers they acquire, the careers they pursue, the culture that influences them, and the opportunities they embrace or squander. As their stories unfold, David Nicholls brilliantly explores the interplay of character and fate that shape our lives. Emma Morley和Dexter Mayhew在大学中偶然相识,共同度过了他们的毕业之夜。那是1988年7月15日,两人的未来都悬而未决。Dexter这个来自于富裕家庭的自信、英俊的男孩,只知道他未来的梦想是“想要成功…过刺激的生活、但不要有混乱和曲折。”Emma决定面对自己左倾的热情和梦想,但她也不知道该做些什么。第二天他们分开,Dexter去环游世界、Emma返回自己在英国利兹的工薪阶层家庭思考未来做些什么,在分别前二人模糊地约定保持联络。在接下来的20年中,两人挂念着彼此,有时见面重燃这种既不能割舍又难以解释的关系。 《一天》记录了Dexter和Emma两人在20年的跨度之中是如何度过7月15日——他们的纪念日——这一天的。每年的7月15日就像一个特定时空的快照,为我们展示了他们的恋人、事业、周边环境、获得或者是浪费掉的机会的编年史,使观众被深深吸引、经常忍俊不禁。随着他们故事的展开,我们看到了性格和命运会如何塑造我们的生活。

很多年之后,只要看到爱情题材的电影总是会泪流满面,为什么人总是在失去之后才懂得拥有时的美好?我现在单身,只想找一个最最普通的男人嫁掉,生一个健康的宝宝,然后一家人在春天晴朗的上午一起去野外郊游。 曾经一度,我可以毫无羞耻的说为了面包抛弃了爱情,不是因为已经找...
评分 评分花了很长时间看完这本书,比电影好看太多太多。 或许是作者的另一职业是编剧,即使读的英文版,也毫不费力,指尖翻动的一页页就好像photo-montage一般互相交错,轻舞飞扬。 男主Dex,花花公子,滥情,把Em对他的爱当做理所应当。而女主Em至始至终都爱着Dex,不断地和他交集,然...
评分题记:We could hardly let go of the person we loved wholeheartedly when we were young, even if he/she has become worse and worse over the years. Although true love makes people blind, it is such an amazing, fantastic, fascinating thing that nobody wanna mis...
评分有人说小说精彩的不行,电影差了些,于是我看了小说,发现不合我口味,属于言情小说类别。
评分最初感觉是陪伴时最温情的告白。后来觉得就是备胎故事。最后看完这几十年唏嘘,喜欢一句评论:就算互相喜欢也不会浪漫顺理成章地在一起。就算在一起也不会幸福美满地一起活到老。就算相伴几年深爱很久也不会在一个离开之后另一个的生命也静止。这就是你无法否认的现实。 They kissed in the street as all around them people hurried home in the summer light, and it was the sweetest kiss that either of them would ever know. This is where it all begins. Everything starts here, today.
评分It's always so nice to go back and find out where the story started in the end of everything. We all once were at the life point of finishing the collage and there was a brand new future in front of us, we planed what we were going to do, who we were going to love, and meanwhile wanted to stay in the dreaming past . But we were wrong, we never can
评分我在Em身上看到了很多人的影子,包括自己
评分两个人每个阶段的困惑细的让人感同身受,反倒是真的在一起了作者一笔带到了结局。深深怀疑作者是脖子控。。。
