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.

读后感

对于英国作家朱利安·巴恩斯(Julian Barnes)而言,2011年是收获颇丰的一年。他先是荣获了具有终身奖性质的“大卫·柯恩英国文学奖”,而后又凭借小说《终结感》(The Sense of an Ending)成功捧得布克奖。这部小说在市场上也有不俗的成绩,在英国问世的最初两个月间,就已经创下...

Short on emotional range, and the narrator is at best unconvincing: arid, willful, and at times shows too much alacrity to shift his "reevaluation" of the past (more so nearer the end of the novel); one also wonders if this meditation on ageing, death and ...

“当你年轻的时候,你觉得你可以预料岁月可能带来的痛和凄凉。你想像自己孤身一人,离了婚,寡居;孩子们长大后离你而去,朋友们逐渐死去。你想像自己失去了地位,失去了欲望——以及欲望的能力。你可能会进而考虑自己朝死亡而去,无论你能唤来多少陪伴,这过程也只能独自...

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...

前面满满的格调被最后的狗血真相给毁了。

评分

很好看,但是结尾有点太模糊了,或者说委婉的不够力道。

评分

这书的语气各种反思戏谑自嘲书卷气都特别typically“老年人”,很有意思。整本书读起来也很舒服

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

First read as a memoir, then as an account of stream of consciousness, then as a romance, and then as a mystery. Actually it is more like a brief discussion of history: a winner's story or a loser's escaping dream.
