The golden skies, the translucent twilight, the white nights, all hold the promise of youth, of love, of eternal renewal. The war has not yet touched this city of fallen grandeur, or the lives of two sisters, Tatiana and Dasha Metanova, who share a single room in a cramped apartment with their brother and parents. Their world is turned upside down when Hitler's armies attack Russia and begin their unstoppable blitz to Leningrad. Yet there is light in the darkness. Tatiana meets Alexander, a brave young officer in the Red Army. Strong and self-confident, yet guarding a mysterious and troubled past, he is drawn to Tatiana—and she to him. Starvation, desperation, and fear soon grip their city during the terrible winter of the merciless German siege. Tatiana and Alexander's impossible love threatens to tear the Metanova family apart and expose the dangerous secret Alexander so carefully protects—a secret as devastating as the war itself—as the lovers are swept up in the brutal tides that will change the world and their lives forever.

唯一能够把你我分开的,只有死亡-----塔季雅娜 1941年6月。列宁格勒。二十二岁的亚历山大第一次遇到即将十七岁的塔季雅娜。他看到她穿着笨拙紧绷的棉布裙,尝着渴望良久的冰淇淋,惬意得打转转。他的目光穿过喧嚣的车流,盯着这个可人的姑娘,一眼就认定。这是六月一个美丽的...
评分涅瓦河”沸腾的像是一壶滚水,像是野兽忽然发了疯“更为后文中欧根的丧失理智做了铺垫,暗示了欧根的悲惨结局。洪水在这里对于欧根来说不仅是单纯的自然灾害,更象征着之前他所受到的种种来自出身,社会的伤害的全面爆发,即是他失心疯的原因。
评分“当时他们青春年少” 现在我们依旧青春年少,会为了一个简单的理由走过任何一条马路,走到对面。 等我们长大,我们会因为内心和外来的压力,知道回不了头,知道不被允许回头了,于是有些人匍匐下身子爬过命运的栅栏,肩膀一点一点的低下去,被埋到土里。而有人会昂起头越过命...
评分在洪水中他“双手交叉在胸前,苍白的可怕,贪婪的波浪拍打着他的脚跟,雨点淋湿了他的脸,怒吼的风将他的帽子吹向天空,而欧根只把忧郁的眼睛凝固着一个方向,那里有他心爱的姑娘,更有他对美好生活的憧憬。
