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。

相爱的人,一生能错过多少回? 相爱的人,若只有一次机会,一生还能错过多少回? 相爱的人,若有一百次机会,一生又能错过多少回? 一遍一遍,我痴痴地问自己,问文字,问德克和爱玛。 我知道我没有答案。 感动。难过。沉默。忧伤……
评分“他总是希望爱玛能在场,把她当作一项呼之即来的资源、可以求助的热线。”当他第一次被冷落时,有了一些下意识的思虑,不过只是那么一点点涟漪,然后德克斯特就以23岁时“想成功,想让父母为他自豪,并能同时和不止一个女人上床”的心态继续过着自己任性且潇洒的生活,而爱玛...
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...
评分人的一生不知道有多少天是虚度的,时光匆匆,以加速度向前。可是生命中的一些时刻,是值得去企盼去回忆的。有些人,始终住在你心底里。也许自己有时候会迷失,也许有时候不情愿承认。但最后,当你能够面对这一切的时候,会坦然和欣慰。 如果那天dex没有在毕业那天遇到...
Here she was, after four romantically barren years, finally, finally in bed with someone she really liked, had liked since she‘d first seen
评分I've been obssessed with someone for many years as Emma did. However, at a certain point I saw through him and made up my mind to move on. Up to now, I've been living a blissful life.
评分我又看泪奔了……
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
评分小说比电影优太多。各章节密集独立得像在逐集看电视剧。Emma and Dexter,他们的人生如果用线形图来描绘是正相反的走向,但是无论处于哪个阶段,都是他们自己对自己所处状态的评价最让他们痛苦。最终章写他们的开始太甜蜜,提醒这果然还是爱情小说。第一部攻克的原文(鼓掌!),作者大人是如何用20个以内的初中词汇写出那么戳心的句子捏~
