Lahiri的第三本書,漸入佳境。印裔的生活,看似學業與工作一路平坦,背後卻是對父母與族群的妥協,隻剩下狼藉的愛情來做對自己的交代(當然也有局外者)。吐槽:這本是英版,字太小瞭!還有錯彆字……最後一個小中篇的結局也不喜歡,地震海嘯像是作者偷懶的藉口。

Nilanjana Sudeshna "Jhumpa" Lahiri was born in London and brought up in South Kingstown, Rhode Island. Brought up in America by a mother who wanted to raise her children to be Indian, she learned about her Bengali heritage from an early age.
Lahiri graduated from South Kingstown High School and later received her B.A. in English literature from Barnard College in 1989. She then received multiple degrees from Boston University: an M.A. in English, an M.A. in Creative Writing, an M.A. in Comparative Literature and a Ph.D. in Renaissance Studies. She took up a fellowship at Provincetown's Fine Arts Work Center, which lasted for the next two years (1997-1998).
In 2001, she married Alberto Vourvoulias-Bush, a journalist who was then Deputy Editor of TIME Latin America Lahiri currently lives in Brooklyn with her husband and two children. She has been a Vice President of the PEN American Center since 2005.
Lahiri taught creative writing at Boston University and the Rhode Island School of Design. Much of her short fiction concerns the lives of Indian-Americans, particularly Bengalis.
She received the following awards, among others:
1999 - PEN/Hemingway Award (Best Fiction Debut of the Year) for Interpreter of Maladies;
2000 - The New Yorker's Best Debut of the Year for Interpreter of Maladies;
2000 - Pulitzer Prize for Fiction for her debut Interpreter of Maladies
Eight stories—longer and more emotionally complex than any Lahiri has yet written—that take us from Cambridge and Seattle to India and Thailand as they enter the lives of sisters and brothers, fathers and mothers, daughters and sons, friends and lovers.
From the internationally best-selling, Pulitzer Prize–winning author, a superbly crafted new work of fiction: eight stories—longer and more emotionally complex than any she has yet written—that take us from Cambridge and Seattle to India and Thailand as they enter the lives of sisters and brothers, fathers and mothers, daughters and sons, friends and lovers.
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.
Unaccustomed Earth is rich with Jhumpa Lahiri’s signature gifts: exquisite prose, emotional wisdom, and subtle renderings of the most intricate workings of the heart and mind. It is a masterful, dazzling work of a writer at the peak of her powers.
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...
評分作者少年写了个短篇集得普利策成名。写来写去大都是印度孟加拉裔跑到美国东北某藤校读博士,然后写那种背景的一代二代的故事。看起来很无趣没什么可写的一群,因为海外大部分30岁以上的中国人也是类似背景,华人论坛上的话题总是那些,但作者却能一本接一本的写,还写出新意,...
評分发表时间:2011-12-04 11:32:00 一周里,利用闲暇的时光,看完了这本短篇小说集。封面很干净,连带着打印的字也让人很舒心。其实看完再回想,虽然第一部分是5个短篇,全书的气息是一致的,就好像一个人她可以穿不同的衣服,打扮成不同的样子,她还是她。 “倘...
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“倘若世世代代都在同一处不再肥沃的土地上反复扎根,人性就会像将马铃薯种在这片土地上无法繁茂茁壮。我的孩子们已经诞生在他处,即便我能力所及、掌控得了他们的命运,他们也将在不适之地扎根。”这段话出自美国作家霍桑的名作《红字》,被曾获奥康纳国际短篇小说奖第一名的...
