About the Author
Patricia Highsmith (1921–1995) was the author of more than twenty novels, including Strangers on a Train, The Price of Salt, The Blunderer and The Talented Mr. Ripley, as well as numerous short stories.
"A great American writer…Highsmith's writing is wicked…it puts a spell on you." ―Entertainment Weekly
Now a major motion picture.
Patricia Highsmith's story of romantic obsession may be one of the most important, but still largely unrecognized, novels of the twentieth century. First published in 1952 and touted as "the novel of a love that society forbids," the book soon became a cult classic.
Based on a true story plucked from Highsmith's own life, Carol tells the riveting drama of Therese Belivet, a stage designer trapped in a department-store day job, whose routine is forever shattered by a gorgeous epiphany―the appearance of Carol Aird, a customer who comes in to buy her daughter a Christmas toy. Therese begins to gravitate toward the alluring suburban housewife, who is trapped in a marriage as stultifying as Therese's job. They fall in love and set out across the United States, ensnared by society's confines and the imminent disapproval of others, yet propelled by their infatuation. Carol is a brilliantly written story that may surprise Highsmith fans and will delight those discovering her work.
This authorized edition includes an afterword by Patricia Highsmith. Previously titled The Price of Salt.
看小说时总是免不了想这是本好小说还是本糟糕的。不过,一本书看的我坐地铁坐过站两次,我还要说差的话也太矫情了。但看salt的时候,又总是想起粤剧里那些才子佳人大团圆结局的戏,不管原著里霍小玉是不是吐血而亡,李慧娘是不是魂飞魄散,反正上了舞台都会有编剧贴心的大团圆...
评分卡罗尔就像她身上的秘密, 扩散到整座房子里, 也像一道光, 只有她才看得见。 相比书的封面中那些最佳影片原著或奥斯卡影后等商业噱头,更喜欢封底上两人对视中表达的无尽暧 昧,然后就是上面那句。 从严格意义上来说,《 卡罗尔》(carol)应该是第一部我...
评分爱上一个人是什么感觉?爱上一个可望而不可即的人是什么感觉?爱上一个若即若离的可望而不可即的人是什么感觉? 她说,有你个陪伴是一个pleasure。 她说,在你这个年纪不应该考虑钱的问题。 她说,darling。 然而她对你在意的你的生活你的工作并不在意,你欲言又止,最后一...
评分【图文并茂版】http://www.douban.com/note/521007505/ 【多图】 【疯狂剧透】【剧透】 自从在电影院看到《卡罗尔》的预告后,就沉迷其中无法自拔了。一开始打算苦苦等电影出来不给自己剧透的,还是手贱把书读了。本来自己读英文很慢,慢慢悠悠看了两天才看了十分之一,...
评分1951年的作品,因为同性恋主题被一贯合作的出版社拒绝,换了家出版社才得以问世。Carol的出场很惊艳,但不知为什么Therese对她的一见钟情和执著还是无法触动我。直到快结尾时我都以为这是个"事如春梦了无痕"的故事,没想到居然HE了!结尾我喜欢,虽然表面写的是Therese的醒悟,而我看到的却是Carol对她深沉又炽热的爱。
评分最吸引我的可能是两个人的蜕变了。彼此不知道自己将要成为什么样的女人。这对于任何人来说,无论男女应该都是一个永恒的课题。但成长对于女人来说是课题,对男人来说是吗?「我居然想不到一对gay来验证我的想法」两个人相爱让彼此变得更好。然后看完的瞬间就去买了一个之前就想要的包。烟酒香水化妆品加礼帽丝巾手套高跟鞋=一个致命女人=盐本盐。小说后面的结局我不喜欢,Carol本人比电影里演的还要冷静有魅力。但是电影真的改编到值得五星。
