Winner of the Man Booker Prize for Fiction in 2011 Tony Webster and his clique first met Adrian Finn at school. Sex-hungry and book-hungry, they would navigate the girl-less sixth form together, trading in affectations, in-jokes, rumour and wit. Maybe Adrian was a little more serious than the others, certainly more intelligent, but they all swore to stay friends for life. Now Tony is in middle age. He's had a career and a single marriage, a calm divorce. He's certainly never tried to hurt anybody. Memory, though, is imperfect. It can always throw up surprises, as a lawyer's letter is about to prove. The Sense of an Ending is the story of one man coming to terms with the mutable past. Laced with trademark precision, dexterity and insight, it is the work of one of the world's most distinguished writers.
Julian Patrick Barnes is a contemporary English writer of postmodernism in literature. He has been shortlisted three times for the Man Booker Prize--- Flaubert's Parrot (1984), England, England (1998), and Arthur & George (2005), and won the prize for The Sense of an Ending (2011). He has written crime fiction under the pseudonym Dan Kavanagh.
Following an education at the City of London School and Merton College, Oxford, he worked as a lexicographer for the Oxford English Dictionary. Subsequently, he worked as a literary editor and film critic. He now writes full-time. His brother, Jonathan Barnes, is a philosopher specialized in Ancient Philosophy.
He lived in London with his wife, the literary agent Pat Kavanagh, until her death on 20 October 2008.
真 不喜欢这个故事
评分卧病在床,这本小书是不错的消遣。表面上似乎在表达个人记忆与历史的建构性、不可靠性,但细读之后的直觉是,巴恩斯很巧妙地规避了很多东西,却暗示了更多。叙述技巧是一流的,在故事世界之外反身性地指涉了读者与小说的关系。 人生的终结是死亡,但终结感则是the impossilibility of change;小说的终结是故事最后一个字,但其终结感则是读者体验他者的失败:"You don't get it. You never did"。巴恩斯躲藏在平淡无奇的主人公面具下,残忍地撕破了现代人麻木的感受力和生存状态。Adrian才是他的化身。
评分重读。Barnes始终拥有近乎残忍的简洁与精准,但许是自我保护作祟,切割得太干净利落,抽离得太远,思虑太重,走去另一个极端:字里行间处处透着难以接近的淡漠,主人公的挣扎与困惑似乎激不起叙事者内心一丝波澜,情感层面如同一片灰败的荒原。真是奇怪的阅读感受。
评分"History is that certainty produced at the point where the imperfections of memory meet the inadequacies of documentation."是句厉害的话。不过我还是觉得作者格局不够大,通俗点说就是聪明然而mean mean的。#弃坑!学习!#
评分audiobook读的超棒!原以为是一出闹剧,到最后发现是一场悲剧。彻彻底底的悲剧。关于历史的定义,不可信的记忆,所留下的记录,当事人的心态。你觉得自己很成熟,却只是选择避免受伤,把这称为生存本能,不去考虑年轻时一切的可能性。你淋花,交税,认真过日子,年迈七十,到底错过了什么。听开头的时候还以为又是那种无病呻吟的书,结果却写得这么好。
近三十年来具有全球影响力的英国作家似乎无论是在写作风格上、作品内容上还是在个人经历上都与我们传统印象里英国作家相去甚远。比如说“英国文坛移民三杰”,比如说政治倾向与女权主义倾向明显的多丽丝-莱辛,比如说自始至终喜欢剑走偏锋的麦克尤恩等等。相对于以上这些作...

评分巴恩斯曾称布克奖是“一场高级的赌博”,是否能够得奖,完全取决于评委会的成员是谁,他们的喜好是什么,就像是否中彩票一样。但在得奖之后,巴恩斯表示他确实松了一口气。 首先,我要说,这本书真是一件可以放在书架上观赏的艺术品,即使你根本不想阅读,你也...
