Margaret Eleanor Atwood CC OOnt FRSC (born November 18, 1939) is a Canadian poet, novelist, literary critic, essayist, inventor, and environmental activist. She is a winner of the Arthur C. Clarke Award, Prince of Asturias Award for Literature and the Peace Prize of the German Book Trade. She has been shortlisted for the Booker Prize five times, winning once, and has been a finalist for the Governor General's Award several times, winning twice. In 2001, she was inducted into Canada's Walk of Fame.[2] She is also a founder of the Writers' Trust of Canada, a non-profit literary organization that seeks to encourage Canada's writing community.[3] Among innumerable contributions to Canadian literature, she was a founding trustee of the Griffin Poetry Prize.[4]
Atwood is also the inventor and developer of the LongPen and associated technologies that facilitate the remote robotic writing of documents.[5] She is the Co-Founder and Director of Syngrafii Inc. (formerly Unotchit Inc.), a company that she started in 2004 to develop, produce and distribute the LongPen technology.[6] She holds various patents related to the LongPen technologies.[7]
While she is better-known as a novelist, she has published around fifteen books of poetry.[8][9] Many of her poems are inspired by myths and fairy tales which interested her from a very early age.[10] Atwood has published short stories in Tamarack Review, Alphabet, Harper's, CBC Anthology, Ms., Saturday Night, and many other magazines. She has also published four collections of stories and three collections of unclassifiable short prose works.
Laura Chase's older sister Iris, married at eighteen to a politically prominent industrialist but now poor and eighty-two, is living in Port Ticonderoga, a town dominated by their once-prosperous family before the First War. While coping with her unreliable body, Iris reflects on her far from exemplary life, in particular the events surrounding her sister's tragic death. Chief among these was the publication of The Blind Assassin, a novel which earned the dead Laura Chase not only notoriety but also a devoted cult following. Sexually explicit for its time, The Blind Assassin describes a risky affair in the turbulent thirties between a wealthy young woman and a man on the run. During their secret meetings in rented rooms, the lovers concoct a pulp fantasy set on Planet Zycron. As the invented story twists through love and sacrifice and betrayal, so does the real one; while events in both move closer to war and catastrophe. By turns lyrical, outrageous, formidable, compelling and funny, this is a novel filled with deep humour and dark drama.
阅读盲刺客不仅仅需要充分的智力,旺盛的体力(长达624页), 还要有一颗能体察同情女性的心。不幸的是,尽管我勉强达到了前两个要求却在最后一环上有所缺失。这样半个月折腾下来,我完成的只能是一次失败的阅读。 谈到女性作家大多会套用细腻温柔之类的形容词,却似乎很...
評分一般看来,如果译者的笔力够用,并明了原文作者最为看重的就是作品的开篇,它的第一节、第一个句子的话,并在这里同样下过功夫的话,那么这译者应该还算不错。 原文第一段为五句,最后两句是: Chunks of the bridge fell on top of it.Nothing much was left of her but c...
評分作者:Adam Mars-Jones 译自英国《观察家报》The Observer 玛格丽特•阿特伍德的小说新作由三条线索组成。艾丽丝•蔡斯的回忆录追溯了她的成长过程:从繁荣之始——钮扣厂业主之女、与富豪的无爱婚姻,及至孤独、耽于冥想的老年。 其次是《盲刺客》的节录:艾丽丝的...
評分叙述的方式往往可以决定许多事情。比如说当艾丽斯写了一整本回忆录,却刻意地略掉了她和亚历克斯之间发生的一切,突然可以让人明白和他在一起的时间在她心中的位置。即使那是因为这大概是她乏善可陈的人生中唯一值得回忆的地方。 就这样一点埋藏在她心里的故事,甚至没有十年时...
評分玛格丽特•阿特伍德的《盲刺客》足有600多页,在小说已经简约化和快餐化的今天,显得有些冗长。对于19世纪的人来说,小说是主要的消遣方式之一,人们也没有电视看,可以秉烛夜读;不用上班,一个冬天不出门,就可以围着火炉捧着大部头消磨时间,所以出现像《战争与和平》那样...
