When Jasmine is suddenly widowed at seventeen, she seems fated to a life of quiet isolation in the small Indian village where she was born. But the force of Jasmine's desires propels her explosively into a larger, more dangerous, and ultimately more life-giving world. In just a few years, Jasmine becomes Jane Ripplemeyer, happily pregnant by a middle-aged Iowa banker and the adoptive mother of a Vietnamese refugee. Jasmine's metamorphosis, with its shocking upheavals and its slow evolutionary steps, illuminates the making of an American mind; but even more powerfully, her story depicts the shifting contours of an America being transformed by her and others like her - our new neighbors, friends, and lovers. In Jasmine, Bharati Mukherjee has created a heroine as exotic and unexpected as the many worlds in which she lives. "Rich...one of the most suggestive novels we have about what it is to become an American." - The New York Times Book Review

We murder who we were so we can rebirth ourselves in the images of dreams. 撇去post-colonialism, post-colonial feminism, cultural identity等相关的不谈。 这确实是一个心机婊踩着不同的男人成长的故事....
评分说白了,这本书简直了。。。完美地塑造出了一个来自印度的玛丽苏…天生摧毁力,毁男无数。。。正室都对她爱得不得了。。。和去年的电影里的Brooklyn女主有得一拼。。。总体而言……除了几次创伤,该女子已异常的幸运和自信成功地过上了美国绿卡生活。。。作者真是过度意淫了,感觉和印度神片一种感觉。。。全程看得我内心无数草泥马狂奔。。。
评分略怪,但是很好看。她换了多少个名字,就过了多少个人生。
评分“There are no harmless, compassionate ways to remake oneself. We murder who we were so we can rebirth ourselves in the images of dreams.”
评分印度女子逃到美國的故事,文字寡寡的
