具体描述
In 1959 Florence Green, a kindhearted widow with a small inheritance, risks everything to open a bookshop - the only bookshop - in the seaside town of Hardborough. By making a success of a business so impractical, she invites the hostility of the town's less prosperous shopkeepers. By daring to enlarge her neighbors' lives, she crosses Mrs. Gamart, the local arts doyenne. Florence's warehouse leaks, her cellar seeps, and the shop is apparently haunted. Only too late does she begin to suspect the truth: a town that lacks a bookshop isn't always a town that wants one.
作者简介
ENELOPE FITZGERALD wrote many books small in size but enormous in popular and critical acclaim over the past two decades. Over 300,000 copies of her novels are in print, and profiles of her life appeared in both The New Yorker and The New York Times Magazine. In 1979, her novel Offshore won Britain's Booker Prize, and in 1998 she won the National Book Critics Circle Prize for The Blue Flower. Though Fitzgerald embarked on her literary career when she was in her 60's, her career was praised as "the best argument.. for a publishing debut made late in life" (New York Times Book Review). She told the New York Times Magazine, "In all that time, I could have written books and I didn’t. I think you can write at any time of your life." Dinitia Smith, in her New York Times Obituary of May 3, 2000, quoted Penelope Fitzgerald from 1998 as saying, "I have remained true to my deepest convictions, I mean to the courage of those who are born to be defeated, the weaknesses of the strong, and the tragedy of misunderstandings and missed opportunities, which I have done my best to treat as comedy, for otherwise how can we manage to bear it?"

读后感
不知道为什么，每当看见或想起这本书的时候，我就有那么一句话： “我有一个梦想，开一家书店。” 就这么一句话，然后就卡壳了。 我确实想要开一家书店，曾经在无数的课堂上做同一个梦，画同一类的图，我的书店的布局。 在我们还年轻的时候，梦想总是铺天盖地。年老之后，对着...
评分哈堡小镇本身是位于大海与河流之间的一座岛屿，潮湿，与世隔绝。一九五九年那会儿，哈堡没有鱼和炸薯条，没有自助洗衣店，除了每隔一个礼拜六晚上放映一次外，也没有电影可看。在东盎格鲁清澈而又寒冷的空气中，生存常常被视为唯一的要求。不是生就是死。 弗洛伦丝是一个六十岁...
评分这本书最好看的是它的朴实的封面。 由于翻译的糟糕，消灭了阅读感。既然一上来就抹杀了要看的冲动，本该把它永远放下，实在它又短小，又是新书，还是那个新星出版社的，姑且给他们点面子，三口两口啃完。 某种程度上翻译的水平倒是同此书女主人公的故事有些异曲同工。这本书讲...
评分范典/文 英国女作家佩内洛普·菲兹杰拉德的书都很简薄，从《书店》、《早春》、《离岸》到《蓝花》，一本本翻过去，人物清晰，立场明白，然而情节又是随意而微小的，她擅长将人物的情绪掩入故事的叙述当中，她的深刻实非一次可以尽得。 她的写作经历让人叹佩不已，６０岁开...

评分面对命运暗流时也许每人会有自己特定阅读的书，而我会选「书店」。二十出头时我是看不懂它的，那时我不知道一个小镇的风物人情，会如此蔓延到生活的枝节丰富故事的密度，在暗中虎视眈眈又高远疏离。在兜转数年后再次重遇，时光叫人改变，偶尔风霜扑面，终于沉稳一点了，与故人再会面，一切似曾相识的景物都不一样了。那家只开了一年的书店在1959到1960那一年间的潮汐明灭，Florence梦里的鹭鸟和鳗鱼，倾颓的悬崖别墅被海水腐蚀，敲门鬼的闹腾成了不能说的秘密，Hardborough上人与人的缘分稀薄，它在编织又不在编织，是年过六十写出来的气质舒朗。有些人总教人对年长充满了期待。
