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.
上海,这个初夏陡然高温到三十五度的时候,泡上一杯好友寄自佛国莲台九华山的“九华佛茶”,慢慢展开了茱帕·拉希里的《不适之地》,慢慢品茶,慢慢读书,不知觉间,清凉萦怀。 茱帕·拉希里的整本小说集《不适之地》共分两部,第一部是五个小短篇,分别是《不适之地...
评分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...
评分茱帕·拉希里(Jhumpa Lahiri )是美国当代文坛具有影响力的孟加拉裔女作家,她的最新小说集《不适之地》(unaccustomed Earth)(上海译文出版社,2011)延续了其短篇小说集《疾病解说者》(Interpreter of Maladies)(上海文艺出版社,2005)和长篇小说《同名人》(The namesake...
评分这位作者的书国内出版了三本,本本经典,不是文学上的珠穆朗玛峰那种高度,属于平原风光的旖旎,有些发现非常微妙,切入非常巧妙,值得收藏阅读。之前的《疾病解说者》与《同名人》都是顶呱呱的,《同名人》属于长篇,一点也不亚于她的短篇,叙述沉稳流畅,没有太多火化,却能...

喜欢她的文字。She is a good craftsman of words. 但是从故事到文字不觉得比她第一本长进。她的故事全部非常depressing. 不是说故事一定要大团圆结尾,但我认为得留给你一线希望,不能每一篇短文都这么令人沮丧。fav= nobody,hema
评分ST. LOUIS COUNTY LIBRARY 流出+毛边,不如作者的第一部短篇集
评分Jhumpa Lahiri is my favorite at the time. She uses simple languages to touch the deepest of my heart. As a Chinese expat living in the U.S I empathize a lot with her Bengali-American antagonists.
评分比Interpreter of Maladies更忧郁,写作技巧也更复杂,也有更多禅意。Agony, bitterness, confuse是人生常态。从Hell到Heaven,纯粹因为苦难后的“悟道”。最后一篇Going Ashore,因为几乎亲身经历过,不忍卒读。
评分in comparision with the meaningful title story,it's a pity that part two is a bit cliche,one might anticipate short stories are the writer's stronghold.
