Luminously translated by Pulitzer Prize-winning author Jhumpa Lahiri, Ties is the searing new novel by bestselling Italian novelist Domenico Starnone.
Ties is the story of a marriage. Like many marriages, this one has been subject to strain, to attrition, to the burden of routine. Yet it has survived intact. Or so things appear. The rupture in Vanda and Aldo's marriage lies years in the past, but if one looks closely enough, the fissures and fault lines are evident. Their marriage is a cracked vase that may shatter at the slightest touch. Or perhaps it has already shattered, and nobody is willing to acknowledge the fact.
Domenico Starnone's thirteenth work of fiction is a powerful short novel about relationships, family, love, and the ineluctable consequences of one's actions. Known as a consummate stylist and beloved as a talented storyteller, Domenico Starnone is the winner of Italy's most prestigious literary award The Strega.
Winner of The Bridge Prize for Best Novel 2015

评分《鞋带》是我最近看过的中篇小说里,最喜欢的一本,没有之一。 此书作者是意大利作家多梅尼科·斯塔尔诺内。这也是我第一次看多梅尼科的书。但看完《鞋带》,我会想把他写过的其他书都找来看。因为《鞋带》写得实在是太好了。 它是那种像强光手电筒,把人性最复杂微妙、最阴暗...
评分这是一个悲伤的故事,悲伤在于夫妻双方都按照自己想象的方式维持着一种本不应该存在的婚姻关系,最后在彼此伤害下,影响到了下一代的人生和他们的婚姻。钱钟书说:“爱情多半是不成功的,要么苦于终成眷属的厌倦,要么苦于未能终成眷属的悲哀。”诚然如是,这世上大概会存在着...

评分“尊敬的先生,如果你忘了,那也没关系,我可以提醒你:我是你的妻子。”这是小说《鞋带》的开篇,也是我好奇的开始。一位妻子为什么要提醒丈夫她的存在?他们的婚姻怎么了? 理想中的婚姻是什么?对,是婚姻,不是爱情。婚姻不是由爱情主导的产物,更像是彼此信任下的盟约,是...

评分家庭成员的内心独白呈现得很好,妻子、丈夫、女儿三个人的第一人称叙述,带出了这一事实:即便共同生活了一辈子也难以懂得对方在想些什么。家庭里微小的秘密,就像花瓶上的裂纹,一点点扩大,无声无息。
