其實是個純愛故事...
評分後麵四分之一有點無聊,尤其是印度部分
評分在紐約匆忙買這本書,因為看名字和封麵以為是教我們上班族如何斷捨離的,結果看完之後唯一學到的道理就是never judge a book by its cover
評分好像從來沒讀過comic novel? 比喻太有意思瞭,聽有聲書的時候能笑齣聲來。“From where I sit, the story of Arthur Less is not so bad.” 作者的度掌握得很好,自嘲也很到位. Who would feel sorry for an almost-fifty white gay man travelling around the world just to escape ex-lover’s wedding? 當Less到瞭京都坐在川端康成最愛的房間裏吃懷石料理的時候,我幾乎打算討厭他瞭。一個永遠天真沒有盔甲又笨拙的人真的就會獲得更多偏愛麼?這個世界大概是不太公平的,也能有人suffer with a reward…

Who says you can't run away from your problems? You are a failed novelist about to turn fifty. A wedding invitation arrives in the mail: your boyfriend of the past nine years is engaged to someone else. You can't say yes--it would be too awkward--and you can't say no--it would look like defeat. On your desk are a series of invitations to half-baked literary events around the world.
QUESTION: How do you arrange to skip town?
ANSWER: You accept them all.
What would possibly go wrong? Arthur Less will almost fall in love in Paris, almost fall to his death in Berlin, barely escape to a Moroccan ski chalet from a Saharan sandstorm, accidentally book himself as the (only) writer-in-residence at a Christian Retreat Center in Southern India, and encounter, on a desert island in the Arabian Sea, the last person on Earth he wants to face. Somewhere in there: he will turn fifty. Through it all, there is his first love. And there is his last.
Because, despite all these mishaps, missteps, misunderstandings and mistakes, Less is, above all, a love story.
A scintillating satire of the American abroad, a rumination on time and the human heart, a bittersweet romance of chances lost, by an author The New York Times has hailed as "inspired, lyrical," "elegiac," "ingenious," as well as "too sappy by half," Less shows a writer at the peak of his talents raising the curtain on our shared human comedy.
I really like the tone of this novel. On the one hand, It was told in a direct and detailed way that as a reader, I could depict the scense with flesh in my mind. On the other hand, despite the closeness, all the emotions in the story are still slightly det...
評分赶在六一读完了Less。最后莱斯去的城市是京都,体验了日本的怀石料理,中途得知了旧爱Robert中风住院。Robert算是见证Less从青年到中年的全过程。在他眼中,莱斯还是当年海滩上见过的二十一岁少年,那个错将多伦多当做加拿大首都的少年。人人都说年轻时遇到的爱恋最让人难忘,...
