' 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

评分如果给珍妮特性别,你会选择什么?这个问题和给樱桃选择性别一样明朗,但看似绝对的答案总不是正确。——给樱桃以性别?这是一个笑话?给珍妮特以性别,这是一个笑话吗? 我想她是渴望被给予性别的,这种诉求在她的字里行间不断流露,即使她不屑被谁定义。她看轻自...
评分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...
评分好像大多数人对十二位跳舞的公主的故事比较感兴趣,事实上小说涉及的元素相当庞杂,公主和王子的故事所揭示的两性关系问题只是一桌子菜里的一道罢了。 小说是多重视角交替叙述,读完之后我才发现每一章节之前的水果图标其实就代表了不同的叙述者:完整的菠萝意味着这一章是约...
