Jhumpa Lahiri is the recipient of a Guggenheim Fellowship. Her debut collection of stories, Interpreter of Maladies, was awarded the Pulitzer Prize, the PEN/Hemingway Award, and The New Yorker Debut of the Year. Her novel The Namesake was a New York Times Notable Book, a Los Angeles Times Book Prize finalist, and was selected as one of the best books of the year by many publications. She lives in Brooklyn, New York.
From the internationally bestselling, Pulitzer Prize—winning author, a superbly crafted new work of fiction: eight stories that take us from Cambridge and Seattle to India and Thailand.
In the stunning title story, Ruma, a young mother in a new city, is visited by her father, who carefully tends the earth of her garden, where he and his grandson form a special bond. But he’s harboring a secret from his daughter, a love affair he’s keeping all to himself. In “A Choice of Accommodations,” a husband’s attempt to turn an old friend’s wedding into a romantic getaway weekend with his wife takes a dark, revealing turn as the party lasts deep into the night. In “Only Goodness,” a sister eager to give her younger brother the perfect childhood she never had is overwhelmed by guilt, anguish, and anger when his alcoholism threatens her family. And in “Hema and Kaushik,” a trio of linked stories–a luminous, intensely compelling elegy of life, death, love, and fate–we follow the lives of a girl and boy who, one winter, share a house in Massachusetts. They travel from innocence to experience on separate, sometimes painful paths, until destiny brings them together again years later in Rome.
感受之处从第二章开始才显露出来,这就像是我早就预料到一样 她平时的叙述 就像是平时到自己记日记 毫无功利之心 我想这是怎样都掩饰不了的,如果有其他目的的话 这是最最让我欣喜的地方,因为畅销书 所以更难得 如题,不适之地。再讲了两段印度人到美国之后的一些事,可我...
评分作者少年写了个短篇集得普利策成名。写来写去大都是印度孟加拉裔跑到美国东北某藤校读博士,然后写那种背景的一代二代的故事。看起来很无趣没什么可写的一群,因为海外大部分30岁以上的中国人也是类似背景,华人论坛上的话题总是那些,但作者却能一本接一本的写,还写出新意,...
评分陌生的土地》是鍾芭.拉希莉十年來的第三本書,這樣的創作速度讓人覺得有些意外。二○○○年三十二歲的她以處女作《醫生的翻譯員》獲普立茲小說獎,成為史上第七個以短篇小說集獲得此項殊榮的作家,按理她有本錢像許多作家一樣,以一年一本或兩年一本的速度寫書,但她卻隔了四...
评分在当今世界文坛,茱帕·拉希里(Jhumpa Lahiri)不算有名,尽管出了三部小说,但三部小说多少都具有某种同质性:性别的不平等、爱情的永恒缺憾,移民的身份焦虑,海海人间的种种隔阂。这种同质性或许和作者的经历有关。作为孟加拉裔印度移民的后代,她生在英国,长在美国,同时...

ST. LOUIS COUNTY LIBRARY 流出+毛边,不如作者的第一部短篇集
