Also published as E. Annie Proulx
Edna Annie Proulx is an American journalist and author. Her second novel, The Shipping News (1993), won the Pulitzer Prize for Fiction and the National Book Award for fiction in 1994. Her short story "Brokeback Mountain" was adapted as an Academy Award, BAFTA and Golden Globe Award-winning major motion picture released in 2005. Brokeback Mountain received massive critical acclaim and went on to be nominated for a leading eight Academy Awards, winning three of them. (However, the movie did not win Best Picture, a situation with which Proulx made public her disappointment.) She won the PEN/Faulkner Award for Fiction for her first novel, Postcards. She has written most of her stories and books simply as Annie Proulx, but has also used the names E. Annie Proulx and E.A. Proulx.
In this touching and atmospheric novel set among the fishermen of Newfoundland, Proulx tells the story of Quoyle. From all outward appearances, Quoyle has gone through his first 36 years on earth as a big schlump of a loser. He's not attractive, he's not brilliant or witty or talented, and he's not the kind of person who typically assumes the central position in a novel. But Proulx creates a simple and compelling tale of Quoyle's psychological and spiritual growth. Along the way, we get to look in on the maritime beauty of what is probably a disappearing way of life.

中午一个人吃饭,炒个空心菜,炖个鱼汤就好了。省下的时间正好用来看书。楼下的锄草机轰轰开了一个上午。空气里都是草汁的苦味。我在非常草本和饱和的幸福感里,读一本湿冷的苦书。安尼.普鲁的《船讯》。书首介绍她是《断背山》的原著作者,当时我心里就想“坏了”,一个作家是...
评分When I was in senior high three years ago, I gave up Pride and Prejudice after reading about thirty pages, just a small fraction of that copy. Many a time I was faced with a 70-word sentence without any punctuation marks and it always ended in analyzing its...
评分“既然杰克能从泡菜坛子里脱身,既然断了脖子的小鸟能够飞走,还有什么是不可能的呢?也许水比光更古老,钻石再滚热的羊血里破裂,山顶喷出冷火,大海中央出现了森林,也许抓到的螃蟹背上有一只手的阴影,也许,一根打了结的绳子可以把风囚禁。也许,有的时候,爱情也可以不...
评分开始的几章,读得相当缓慢。 奎尔的黑人哥们永远喋喋不休,但每句话又快又准。奎尔的爱情开始得不可思议,但激情迅速沦落为可怕的婚姻,好像在草原上无意发现大簇的野花,步入其中却陷入沼泽,怎么努力怎么挣扎都是徒劳,快要完全沉没时自欺欺人地以为这大概也是幸福。 我就...
评分for 《经济观察报 书评增刊 12月号》 美国作家安妮•普鲁的《船讯》最初进入大众视野的时候,正是其短篇小说《断背山》被李安改编为同名电影而在中国广受关注的那一年。但《船讯》并未受到太大关注,很多人提起安妮•普鲁,还是只想到《断背山》。 但恰恰是这本《...
1、跟《近距离》一样,带出了newfoundland的风、雪和浪。2、Coyle当了主编之后,很讨厌围着桌子开会。大家边剖鱼边讨论报纸的各个栏目,太喜欢了。
评分高中时代读过,几年来每每记得情节却忘了书名。不想男人从图书馆旮旯淘出电影版,喜从心生。
评分Professor told me: It is too heavy to read.
评分为都市人量身打造的归乡疗愈之旅,上有民俗神话和家族传统,下有地貌奇观和生存困境,我总觉太刻意。语言比故事有看头,十分利落的短句、充满灵光的比喻、噼里啪啦的细节,屡有神来之笔。
评分暴雪、巨浪、渔船、被风刮走的房子、简单平凡又坚韧的人。Annie Proulx粗砺的语言和纽芬兰这片神奇的土地融为一体。
