Winner of the 2011 Man Booker Prize

One of The Atlantic 's Best Books I Read This Year

The Sense of an Ending is a 2011 novel written by British author Julian Barnes. The book is Barnes' eleventh novel written under his own name (he has also written crime fiction under the pseudonym Dan Kavanagh) and was released on 4 August 2011 in the United Kingdom. The Sense of an Ending is narrated by a retired man named Tony Webster, who recalls how he and his clique met Adrian Finn at school and vowed to remain friends for life. When the past catches up with Tony, he reflects on the paths he and his friends have taken. In October 2011, The Sense of an Ending was awarded the Man Booker Prize. The following month it was nominated in the novels category at the Costa Book Awards.

A novel so compelling that it begs to be read in a single setting, The Sense of an Ending has the psychological and emotional depth and sophistication of Henry James at his best, and is a stunning new chapter in Julian Barnes's oeuvre.

This intense novel follows Tony Webster, a middle-aged man, as he contends with a past he never thought much about—until his closest childhood friends return with a vengeance: one of them from the grave, another maddeningly present. Tony thought he left this all behind as he built a life for himself, and his career has provided him with a secure retirement and an amicable relationship with his ex-wife and daughter, who now has a family of her own. But when he is presented with a mysterious legacy, he is forced to revise his estimation of his own nature and place in the world.

“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...

一句题外话,现在书籍的腰封简直是太浮夸了,弄的好像没有个奖项、没有什么名人推荐就不好意思初版了似的。 这本《终结的感觉》,以我现在的年龄看来,可能还没有太多共鸣,但是让我想起一些小事。可能这种经历每个人都有,有些记忆可能是因为愧疚,甚至耻辱,永远不想提起,...

Utterly beautiful writing style. Masterful storytelling skills. Brilliant structure. Julian Barnes proved to us that a complex story, if told correctly, doesn't have to be 800 pages long.

评分

History is that certainty produced at the point where the imperfections of memory meet the inadequacies of documentation. A smart and brilliant statement. A historian of early Christianity quoted the line in her lecture--this inspired me to read the book. All the messed-up memories about the enigmatic life. A well written novel.

评分

一部机智过人的小说,充满了嘲讽和自我嘲讽。
