珍妮特·温特森(Jeanette Winterson),当代最好也是最有争议性的作家之一。
1959年,生于英格兰的曼彻斯特。自小由坚信宗教的夫妇收养。当时家中有六本书,其中《亚瑟王之死》激发了温特森对书本和写作的渴望。
1978年,温特森与一个女孩相爱,离家出走。她在 殡仪馆、精神病院等地留宿打工,但仍以全A的成绩考进牛津大学英语系。
1985年,处女作《橘子不是唯一的水果》出版,荣获惠特布莱德首作奖。由她亲自改编的同名BBC剧集也大获好评,获得各项国际大奖。
代表作品有:《激情》、《给樱桃以性别》、《写在身体上》、《艺术与谎言》、《苹果笔记本》、《守望灯塔》等。
2006年,温特森以其杰出的文学成就被授予英帝国勋章(OBE)。
译者 周嘉宁 作家。著有长篇《陶城里的武士四四》、《夏天在倒塌》、《往南方岁月去》、《天空晴朗晴朗》,短篇小说集《杜撰记》等。《写在身体上》是她翻译的第一部小说。现任《鲤》书系文字总监
From Publishers Weekly This fourth effort from British writer Winterson ( Sexing the Cherry ) is a high-concept erotic novelette, a Vox for the postmarital crowd. The narrator, a lifelong philanderer ("I used to think marriage was a plate-glass window just begging for a brick"), has fallen in love with Louise, a pre-Raphaelite beauty. Louise is unhappily married to a workaholic cancer researcher, so the narrator leads her into a sexually combative affair. This scenario seems obvious enough, but Winterson never reveals whether the narrator is male or female. Rather, she teases readers out of their expectations about women and men and romance: Louise calls the narrator "the most beautiful creature male or female that I have ever seen," and the narrator observes, "I thought difference was rated to be the largest part of sexual attraction but there are so many things about us that are the same." When the narrator breaks off the affair after learning that Louise has cancer--only her husband can cure her--the work turns into a eulogy for lost love. Winterson manipulates gender expertly here, but her real achievement is her manipulation of genre : the capacious first-person narration, now addressed to the reader, now to the lover, enfolds aphorisms, meditations on extracts from an anatomy textbook, and essayistic riffs on science, virtual reality and the art of fiction ("I don't want to reproduce, I want to create something entirely new"). "It's as if Louise never existed," the narrator observes, "like a character in a book. Did I invent her?" One wonders, as Winterson intends, and then wonders some more. For Louise--and the narrator's love for her--never seems quite real; in this cold-hearted novel love itself, however eloquently expressed, is finally nothing more than a product of the imagination.

From Library Journal Like Andre Breton's dizzying poem, "Ma Femme a la chevelure de feu de bois" ("my woman with her belly like the unfolding fan of days/... My woman with her swan's back buttocks"), the narrator of Winterson's ( Sexing the Cherry , LJ 2/15/90) new novel relentlessly celebrates the beauty of a beloved woman's body--but the trick here is that we do not know whether the narrator is a man or a woman. The story is minimal and not altogether original: a corrusive sensualist experiences many women but finally becomes obsessed with one, stealing her from her husband, only to discover that she has been guarding a terrible secret: she is threatened by a terminal illness. The fascination is the lush, plush language and the way two aspects of the physical--passion and bodily decay--are delicately interwoven. Not to everyone's taste, but serious readers and sensualists will enjoy. Previewed in Prepub Alert, LJ 10/1/92.- Barbara Hoffert, "Library Journal"Copyright 1993 Reed Business Information, Inc.

我一直在想,温特森的这本书,应该用一种什么感觉来形容。熨帖。我觉得就是这样,包括bololo的译笔。我跑回立早的推荐贴里去看,才想起来用了跟她一样的形容词。不用翻书皮上的名字,不用从她字里行间猜测主人公的性别,我也能知道,只有女人才能写出爱一个人时这种百转千回的...
评分十二月十四日 凌晨一点 “为什么要用失去衡量爱情?” 你睡着了,侧身背对我。没有开灯。冰箱运作的声音仿佛童年土房子棚顶的老鼠。我们都不说话,或许有谁想,只是没有说出口而已。沉默是恰好卡在时间缝隙里的一块化石。 我对着电脑,拿捏着该敲下哪些字母,就好像所有的字...
评分我不知道欲望也可以书写得如此优美。 要不是周嘉宁我也不会买这本书,幸运的是,书里的每一个字句都值得细细把玩,当然,作者和译者都有功劳。 看题目就知道,这是一本描写情欲的书。爱与性本是一体,不可能分开。假若有高出肉体的爱,也必定会在低处找到欲望的支撑。即使是精...
评分相比于珍奈特·温特森更具思辨力度的小说《守望灯塔》,国内读者似乎对《橘子不是唯一的水果》、《写在身体上》更感兴趣一点。这大概与小说中所写的同性恋爱情题材有关,也和文艺青年们非重即轻的阅读口味有关。 温特森是一个特立独行的女人,根据材料显示,她本人的生活相当...
评分我很少读爱情小说,大概我不懂爱情,或者那些关于爱情的文字并不能真正表达我的感受。所以我一直在寻找,我读了大部分萨拉.沃斯特的书,虽然情节精彩,但是只是八点档电视剧。也陆续读了珍妮特的书,从《守望灯塔》到《橘子不是唯一的水果》,他们有一些我熟悉的影子,却是只言...
