Winner of the 2011 Man Booker Prize

By an acclaimed writer at the height of his powers, The Sense of an Ending extends a streak of extraordinary books that began with the best-selling Arthur & George and continued with Nothing to Be Frightened Of and, most recently, Pulse.

This intense new novel follows a middle-aged man as he contends with a past he has never much thought about—until his closest childhood friends return with a vengeance, one of them from the grave, another maddeningly present. Tony Webster thought he’d left all this behind as he built a life for himself, and by now his marriage and family and career have fallen into an amicable divorce and retirement. But he is then presented with a mysterious legacy that obliges him to reconsider a variety of things he thought he’d understood all along, and to revise his estimation of his own nature and place in the world.

A novel so compelling that it begs to be read in a single sitting, with stunning psychological and emotional depth and sophistication, The Sense of an Ending is a brilliant new chapter in Julian Barnes’s oeuvre.

History, to some degree, is indeed the lies of the victors and the self-delusions of the defeat. But when it comes to terms with life, the very core of what happened in the time we live in, is there, or can we possibly state who is the victor and who is t...

刊于《经观书评》 “过去永远不会死,它甚至还没有过去。”美国小说家威廉·福克纳在《修女安魂曲》里的这句经常被引用的名言在朱利安·巴恩斯获得2011年布克奖的小说《终结的感觉》里找到了回应。这部200页都不到的短小作品远比它看上去有份量。《终结的感觉》是对时间(主...

听闻改编成电影了于是把这本呆在我长长长长的待读列表许久的书借来看了。读了几十页我就有点后悔,这可能是一本获奖的流水账,撑过去到后面突然exciting起来(rollercoaster indeed)(当然聪明的读者已经发现了什么)。作为一个unreliable narrator来说tony真的是太average了(therefore relatable)但又有点说不上来的可爱。总的来讲是比较有意思但不是很有意思的小说。另外我要质问一下作者为什么要abuse “corroboration”……翻两页就能碰见强行背单词orz

电影根本没把小说拍出来嘛

评分

The philosophical and dialectical tone throughout belies a weakeness in story-telling and an over-reliance on conveniently melodramatic plot devices. Still a rather enjoyable and quick read about the unreliability of memory and narratives, of old age and remorse, and of the sense of an ending lol.

评分

语言不错,叙事抓人,但格局略小(导致我电影不想看了)。把一个度过平庸人生的老年人的心理描写得很生动,和生命中两个女人的互动写得好精彩,男人啊,怎么一把年纪还能这么幼稚?结局震惊,但是太过戏剧化以至于影响了我对此书的评价。

真动人,读完就不会总惦记冬天要去中央公园看鸭子了。
