約翰•厄普代剋(John Updike,1932.3.18—2009.1.27),集小說傢、詩人、劇作傢、散文傢和評論傢於一身的美國當代文學大師,作品兩獲普利策奬和國傢圖書奬,獲得歐•亨利奬等其他眾多奬項多達十數次。“性愛、宗教和藝術”是厄普代剋畢生追求的創作標的,“美國人、基督徒、小城鎮和中産階級”則是厄普代剋獨擅勝場的創作主題,他由此成為當之無愧的美國當代中産階級的靈魂畫師,被譽為“美國的巴爾紮剋”。
Winner of the PEN/Faulkner Award for Fiction
A harvest and not a winnowing, this volume collects 103 stories, almost all of the short fiction that John Updike wrote between 1953 and 1975. “How rarely it can be said of any of our great American writers that they have been equally gifted in both long and short forms,” reads the citation composed for John Updike upon his winning the 2006 Rea Award for the Short Story. “Contemplating John Updike’s monumental achievement in the short story, one is moved to think of Nathaniel Hawthorne, Henry James, Ernest Hemingway, and perhaps William Faulkner—writers whose reputations would be as considerable, or nearly, if short stories had been all that they had written. From [his] remarkable early short story collections . . . through his beautifully nuanced stories of family life [and] the bittersweet humors of middle age and beyond . . . John Updike has created a body of work in the notoriously difficult form of the short story to set beside those of these distinguished American predecessors. Congratulations and heartfelt thanks are due to John Updike for having brought such pleasure and such illumination to so many readers for so many years.”

評分 評分 評分小说里我一直偏向读短篇,因为在有限的篇幅里去记录一个故事,展示人物属性和矛盾,揭示社会、时代等背景下隐藏的问题,对我而言是一件利用短暂时间获取快感的好事。汪曾祺曾在《小说笔谈》中如此形容好的小说所具有的特点:首先是语言的准确性,靠的用语感来判断哪些语言是否...
評分“但幸福何曾充当过小说的主题?对幸福的追求仅仅是——一种追求而已。死神和它的助手从每笔交易中都要抽税。已经拥有的东西会被贪求的东西贬值。不满,冲突,毁灭,忧伤,恐惧——这些才是值得关注、无法回避的主题。” ——约翰•厄普代克 论起美国当代最会写的作家是谁,...
