' A book of innocence and bawdiness, fury and joy... needs to be read and re-read'
—— The Times
' Read it and marvel. Jeanette Winterson's voice is startlingly original, and her imaginative feats are utterly dazzling'
—— Cosmopolitan
The Hopi, an Indian tribe, have a language as sophisticated as ours, but no tense for past, present and future. The division does not exist. What does this say about time?
Matter, that thing the most solid and the well-known, which you are holding in your hands and which makes up your body, is now known to be mostly empty space. Empty space and points light. What does this say about the reality of the world?
Sexing the Cherry celebrates the power of the imagination as it playfully juggles with our perception of history and rality; love and sex; lies and truths; and twelve dancing princesses who lived happily ever after, but not with their husbands.
' Simple prose shows the subtlest of minds behind it, switt, confident and dazzling'
—— Financial Times
' Winterson juggles past and present, fantasy and reality, to produce an original and rntertaining novel which invites us to re-examine our own perceptions of time'
—— Sunday Times
' Her stories and character levitate off the page into dancing life... A bold, bizarre and timely book'
—— Independent
经细心豆瓣读友提示,此篇译后记中出现了一个错误陈述,即“2007年,……她发现生母其实早已去世。于是母爱对于温特森,成了一个永远无法解码的迷思。”一段中出现的关于温特森生母已去世的信息属于译者臆断,根据《南方周末》2011年的采访资料,温特森生母尚在世,并与温特森...
评分在看到这个书名的时候我完全想象不出它里面的内容,当然这绝对不是一本关于樱桃的种植与欣赏之类的科普书,这点我还是知道的。 我一点也不想承认我看不懂这本书,所以从一开始到最后我都很仔细的读,可是那些文字还是仅仅从我的眼前飘过。我只记得文字很美的地方我被自己脑海...
评分如果温特森足够老,她的《十二位跳舞公主的故事》将被卡特收录进《精怪故事集》。可是具有火红色头发的温特森,一位被称激情的代言人,居然在《给樱桃以性别》里隐掉了橘子时的跳跃,写在身体上时的揪心狂热,分娩出一只形状完全不同,甚至有些冷飒飒的小家伙,它此次擅长的不...
评分珍妮特·温特森善于玩文字游戏,打破小说叙事规则,这是出了名的。 在读《给樱桃以性别》时,索性不把它当成小说。抛去故事情节,忘记去寻找主线。将那些散落在童话故事、圣经、神话、传说、历史和艺术名作中的只言片语收集起来,拼凑出在自己心中的模样。 读温特...
评分如题。要想分析一本小说,最好先从它的标题入手。 《给樱桃以性别》(1989年出版)第100与101页揭示了名字的来源。樱桃的“嫁接”暗示着对世界的“重建”方式——“将一种可能柔嫩或不确定的植物融合进同一科目的另一种更为坚硬的植物上”,这一点有多层涵义,既是指真实与想...
诡异而有力量的文字,残酷却美丽。完全看不下去的开头却因为出差时间一口气读完了,还好没错过,着眼宏大却落笔微小。
评分很奇妙,宗教,同性恋,女性融为一体,不易懂
评分hilarious re-creation of history, with a touch of sentimentalism
评分想象力漂浮
评分和焚舟纪相比,英文真的要浅显很多> <
