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.

評分移民文学究竟会走到什么境界?除了疏离、恐惧、遗憾,是不是有些东西被蒙在移民文学这个标签下缺少了更深层次的思索,只是因为不适所以更多的问题凸显了,比如爱情,比如失去,比如童年。从这个角度说,拉西里写什么样的故事是不重要的,即使是曲折反复的爱情故事,也看过太多...
評分刚开始是在学校看到有同学在阿里推打折网http://www.alitui.com/remai/买了这个版本,我翻了下质量蛮好的之后就开始迷恋了 之前在印度旅行的时候买了原版书Unaccustomed Earth,非常好的一本小说集。写出了印度第二代移民在中西方文化之间的游荡和碰撞,远离和回归。

短篇小說集,隻讀瞭主打故事“不適之地”,沒感覺有什麽不適的啊,看上去你們不論是印度還是孟加拉的過的比阿拉伯來的還滋潤。再說都是G2瞭,還能有什麽不適呢,苦大仇深的我苦不堪言啊,罄竹難書!!
评分這個女作傢很神奇,語言輕描淡寫到口水話,小說中的主角永遠是印度某地去boston的phd,但是作品就是扣人心弦,說不齣來的好。。。
评分比Interpreter of Maladies更憂鬱,寫作技巧也更復雜,也有更多禪意。Agony, bitterness, confuse是人生常態。從Hell到Heaven,純粹因為苦難後的“悟道”。最後一篇Going Ashore,因為幾乎親身經曆過,不忍卒讀。
评分略翻過幾頁,似乎是一樣的調子。沒有短篇精簡
评分以後要是教英文係,一定會把這本書推薦給學生。作者很擅長用樸素平時的語言勾勒齣人與人之間復雜微妙的情感。每個短片都有不同的敘事視角,每個細節都閤情閤理地安排在敘事結構中,不多不少,連貫一緻。要搞英文創作,這是一本不錯的範例。
