Patrick Süskind (born March 26, 1949) is a German writer and screenwriter.
He was born in Ambach am Starnberger See, near Munich in Germany. His father was Wilhelm Emanuel Süskind. He studied Medieval and Modern History at the University of Munich and in Aix-en-Provence from 1968-1974. In the 1980s he worked as a screenwriter, for "Kir Royal" and "Monaco Franze" among others. His best known work is the internationally acclaimed bestseller Perfume: The Story of a Murderer (1985). He is also the author of a play, The Double Bass (1980), a novella, The Pigeon (1988), The Story of Mr. Sommer (1991), Three Stories and a Reflection (1996), and a collection of essays, On Love and Death (2006). For a number of seasons, The Double Bass was a leading piece on German stages.
Süskind lives in Munich, and rarely grants interviews.
An acclaimed bestseller and international sensation, Patrick Suskind's classic novel provokes a terrifying examination of what happens when one man's indulgence in his greatest passion—his sense of smell—leads to murder.
In the slums of eighteenth-century France, the infant Jean-Baptiste Grenouille is born with one sublime gift-an absolute sense of smell. As a boy, he lives to decipher the odors of Paris, and apprentices himself to a prominent perfumer who teaches him the ancient art of mixing precious oils and herbs. But Grenouille's genius is such that he is not satisfied to stop there, and he becomes obsessed with capturing the smells of objects such as brass doorknobs and frest-cut wood. Then one day he catches a hint of a scent that will drive him on an ever-more-terrifying quest to create the "ultimate perfume"—the scent of a beautiful young virgin. Told with dazzling narrative brillance, Perfume is a hauntingly powerful tale of murder and sensual depravity.

昨天写到《面纱》,说起电影与原著的不同,最近还读了另外一本书的原著,也就是《香水》。 不是刻意要对电影和文字进行比较,但是,很显然,大部分的电影改编,由于缺失大量文字中所独有的细节性的描绘,都会显得比较乏味和失败。能够超越原著的电影改编作品屈指可数,像《肖申...
评分第一章看完了,写个简单的评论,有不关键情节透露: 没看过电影和书的朋友,为了保持更多样化的观感可能性,请慎重考虑是否阅读以下文字。 “犹如植物的选择,一颗豆子要么发芽要么还是颗豆子” 他一出生便面临着爱与生存的选择,这个选择后来贯穿了他一生的斗争与轮回。 他,只...
评分通常意义下,作为液体而存在的香水,对于大多数人来说,毫无疑问,是一种多姿,而迷人的事物。可以这样说,对设计者来说,香水是他们施展奇思妙想的最佳舞台。而对于使用者来说,香水是他们变幻气质形象的上好良药。 那么作为通过搭建小说结构而存在的香水呢?正常情况下,文字...
评分 评分几年前看的这个小说,看了豆瓣上的评论,有些不平,抒发抒发。 当他们后来敢于这么做,起先是偷偷地、后来则是完全公开地相互对现时,他们不禁破涕为笑。他们感到特别自豪。他们第一次出于爱而做了一点事情。 这是小说的结尾。 聚斯金德实在太酷了,因为他把所有的矛盾、隐...
很努力地想要证明我是谁,到头来才发现别人了解的或者喜欢上的只不过是我们强加于自己身上的那个“我”。荒诞、无奈又觉得理所当然。
评分比电影强太多,好小说无法改编成好电影的典型。可以拿这个来回顾审视自己的三观。
评分前半部比较好看...
