But for those like us, our fate is to face the world as orphans, chasing through long years the shadows of vanished parents.
評分跟上海不期而遇瞭。
評分前三分之二寫得很好,最後一部分莫名的編造感很重。但更大的問題是,一個外國人對二十世紀早期的中國和中國人的呈現,似乎讓人不太舒服。
評分Nostalgia encouraged by the loss of memory
評分白開水小說…… " It's obvious to the reader that Christopher deludes himself about many things, such as his conviction that when he "roots out evil," he is "cleansing the world of wickedness." This inclination toward grandiosity is a direct result of Christopher's sense of powerlessness as an orphan. "
Kazuo Ishiguro was born in Nagasaki, Japan, in 1954 and moved to Britain at the age of five. He is the author of four previous novels, including The Remains of the Day, an international bestseller that won the Booker Prize and was adapted into an award-winning film. Ishiguro's work has been translated into twenty-eight languages. In 1995, he received an Order of the British Empire for service to literature, and in 1998 was named a Chevalier de l'Ordre des Arts et des Lettres by the French government. He lives in London with his wife and daughter.
From the Booker Prize-winning, bestselling author of Remains of the Day comes this stunning work of soaring imagination.
Born in early-twentieth-century Shanghai, Banks was orphaned at the age of nine after the separate disappearances of his parents. Now, more than twenty years later, he is a celebrated figure in London society; yet the investigative expertise that has garnered him fame has done little to illuminate the circumstances of his parents' alleged kidnappings. Banks travels to the seething, labyrinthine city of his memory in hopes of solving the mystery of his own, painful past, only to find that war is ravaging Shanghai beyond recognition-and that his own recollections are proving as difficult to trust as the people around him.
Masterful, suspenseful and psychologically acute, When We Were Orphans offers a profound meditation on the shifting quality of memory, and the possibility of avenging one’s past.
本书中,最让我触动的是班克斯的母亲,被军阀王顾娶为妾,囚于深山,王顾为了显示对白人女子的征服,在客人面前,鞭笞之。人前尚且如此,人后床底之间可想而知。而这一切,换来的是,军阀对鸦片禁运的假装不通融,给儿子班克斯源源不断的资金资助。无论受多大的苦,当母亲知道...
評分1、石黑一雄擅长运用零星的回忆编织故事,他认为通过这样一个过滤器,我们可以审视自己的生活。在《上海孤儿》中你大概就可以领略到他这一“娴熟的技巧”。但我有时担心的是,频繁使用这样的技巧会不会助长作家在叙述上的惰性。对于场景、事件地转换、过渡对很多作家来说有时要...
評分 評分这是一本让人不知道说什么好的小说,尤其是作为一个中国上海的读者来看它。 就可读性来说,这本故事真的没什么意思。一个非常故弄玄虚的案件,一场浩大却又明显想象失实的时代风波,几个描写很虚浮不太给人魅力感的人物。就是这样。 串联起整个故事的是主人公父母的离奇失踪...
評分童年是什么?有时候是缺失记忆,有时候是重新构建,有时候是堆砌梦境,不论今后的人生会变成怎样,它在心底,一直牢牢盘踞。 “我们一旦长大成人,儿时就变得像另外一个国度”。在这里,懵懂的喜乐,懵懂的悲伤,终究在离开这个国度以后用后面的人生来解释偿还。 故事的背景是1...
