Simon Van Booy is the author of two novels and two collections of short stories, including The Secret Lives of People in Love and Love Begins in Winter, which won the Frank O'Connor International Short Story Award. He is the editor of three philosophy books and has written for The New York Times, The Guardian, NPR, and the BBC. His work has been translated into fourteen languages. He lives in Brooklyn with his wife and daughter.
On the verge of giving up--anchored to dreams that never came true and to people who have long since disappeared from their lives--Van Booy's characters walk the streets of these stark and beautiful stories until chance meetings with strangers force them to face responsibility for lives they thought had continued on without them.

评分不知道出版社是否因为这个名字比较有噱头,因此选择了以第一篇《爱,始于冬季》来做本书的书名。但在我看来,一个沉浸在往事里不能自拔的大提琴家在酒店重坠爱河,从而开始尝试走出伤痛的故事,并不如第二篇《虎,虎》来的沉痛和深刻。 在《虎》里,讲述的是一个儿科医生因为...
这个故事太适合在新年第一天洒满阳光的午后里读了。
