朱利安•巴恩斯(1946— ),英国当代著名作家。父母皆为法语教师,哥哥在牛津大学教授哲学,妻子帕特•凯伐纳是著名的文学经纪人。巴恩斯毕业于牛津大学,曾参与《牛津英语辞典》的编纂工作,做过多年的文学编辑和评论家。
“聪明”是巴恩斯作品的一贯标识。八十年代他以突破性之作《福楼拜的鹦鹉》入围布克奖决选,跻身英国文坛一流作家之列。此后,获各大文学奖项无数,三进布克奖决选,并于2011年凭借《终结的感觉》赢得大奖,同年获大卫•柯恩英国文学终身成就奖。
巴恩斯也深得法国读者的好感,他是唯一一位同时获得法国梅第奇奖和费米娜奖的作家,并先后荣获法国文化部颁发的文学艺术骑士、军官、司令勋章,堪称在法国最受欢迎的英国作家之一。
In his widely acclaimed new collection of stories, Julian Barnes addresses what is perhaps the most poignant aspect of the human condition: growing old.
The characters in The Lemon Table are facing the ends of their lives–some with bitter regret, others with resignation, and others still with defiant rage. Their circumstances are just as varied as their responses. In 19th-century Sweden, three brief conversations provide the basis for a lifetime of longing. In today’s England, a retired army major heads into the city for his regimental dinner–and his annual appointment with a professional lady named Babs. Somewhere nearby, a devoted wife calms (or perhaps torments) her ailing husband by reading him recipes.
In stories brimming with life and our desire to hang on to it one way or another, Barnes proves himself by turns wise, funny, clever, and profound–a writer of astonishing powers of empathy and invention.
难以想象。 说实话,突然发现我从来没有想过衰老这件事。我很道学,说白了就是没有野心,一切顺其自然就行。我们要保持健康而不仅仅是假装自己很年轻,对时间的抗拒是无意义的,顺应时间寻求中立保持自尊,生老病死简单的生物问题并不是谁的错误,所以用保持健康来替代对衰老的...
评分 评分 评分 评分Julian Barnes写ageing这事儿真是一绝,而且总是能清风云淡之间,让你感同身受而感伤或者独自微笑。这本比 the sense of an ending要早,文笔驾驭也不如后者,但仍然很值得一读
评分Barnes的短篇总有那么几篇让人啃不下去、完全进入不了状态,这应该是我读过最没感觉的一本Barnes。
评分short stories that touches me deeply
评分虽然作者是拿过booker奖的严肃文学作家,但是这个集子太令人感觉沉重了,完全没有阅读的趣味。也许只有经历了衰老和死亡的思考,才能跟作者有深切的共鸣吧。虽然没读过追忆似水年华,总感觉会跟这本书风格比较像,所以十年内还是不读了。
评分难懂TAT 而且发现中文的也看不懂。。
