From one of our most powerful writers, a work of stunning frankness about losing a daughter. Richly textured with bits of her own childhood and married life with her husband, John Gregory Dunne, and daughter, Quintana Roo, this new book by Joan Didion examines her thoughts, fears, and doubts regarding having children, illness, and growing old.
Blue Nights opens on July 26, 2010, as Didion thinks back to Quintana’s wedding in New York seven years before. Today would be her wedding anniversary. This fact triggers vivid snapshots of Quintana’s childhood—in Malibu, in Brentwood, at school in Holmby Hills. Reflecting on her daughter but also on her role as a parent, Didion asks the candid questions any parent might about how she feels she failed either because cues were not taken or perhaps displaced. “How could I have missed what was clearly there to be seen?” Finally, perhaps we all remain unknown to each other. Seamlessly woven in are incidents Didion sees as underscoring her own age, something she finds hard to acknowledge, much less accept.
Blue Nights —the long, light evening hours that signal the summer solstice, “the opposite of the dying of the brightness, but also its warning”—like The Year of Magical Thinking before it, is an iconic book of incisive and electric honesty, haunting and profoundly moving.
认识狄迪恩,是在《奇想之年》。 我被她惊吓到。 是的,是惊吓。她写丈夫猝然离世、女儿接连昏迷这些密集的重大打击,细微至极,读者尚心痛不忍,难以想象作者是如何回忆起那些点滴细节,再大悲大痛一场的。但她就能毫末不遗却又冷静克制,还能让你心中时时涌动着一股肆虐的暗...
評分 評分我对译序大张旗鼓地渲染悲伤感到不适,虽然译者没有寻章摘句地对文本进行过度解读,但是“肝肠寸断”“黯然销魂”这些字眼用得如此触目惊心,主题揭示得太早,还未开篇,就已泪流。 关于“悼亡”“伤逝”的作品太多了,杨绛在《我们仨》文末引用的白居易的诗——大都好物不坚牢...
評分 評分"Memory fades, memory adjusts, memory conforms to what we think we remember." --Joan Didion.
评分"Memory fades, memory adjusts, memory conforms to what we think we remember." --Joan Didion.
评分很美,重復多次的那幾段迴憶仿佛是依然不敢相信女兒的死亡,不敢相信那藍色夜晚的消逝。缺點是作者有時也會太沉浸在自我情緒裏,變成碎碎念……
评分非常動人,盡管內容有關女兒的死亡可是寫的很剋製冷靜。最喜歡關於恐懼的描寫,"pass into nothingness",即使想通瞭人生本就虛無沒有意義,還是會恐懼以一己之力對抗虛無本身,融入藍色夜晚,所有明亮統統消逝。
评分yes, i understand. do not complain, work harder, and spend more time alone.
