具体描述
In 1959 Florence Green, a kindhearted widow with a small inheritance, risks everything to open a bookshop - the only bookshop - in the seaside town of Hardborough. By making a success of a business so impractical, she invites the hostility of the town's less prosperous shopkeepers. By daring to enlarge her neighbors' lives, she crosses Mrs. Gamart, the local arts doyenne. Florence's warehouse leaks, her cellar seeps, and the shop is apparently haunted. Only too late does she begin to suspect the truth: a town that lacks a bookshop isn't always a town that wants one.
作者简介
ENELOPE FITZGERALD wrote many books small in size but enormous in popular and critical acclaim over the past two decades. Over 300,000 copies of her novels are in print, and profiles of her life appeared in both The New Yorker and The New York Times Magazine. In 1979, her novel Offshore won Britain's Booker Prize, and in 1998 she won the National Book Critics Circle Prize for The Blue Flower. Though Fitzgerald embarked on her literary career when she was in her 60's, her career was praised as "the best argument.. for a publishing debut made late in life" (New York Times Book Review). She told the New York Times Magazine, "In all that time, I could have written books and I didn’t. I think you can write at any time of your life." Dinitia Smith, in her New York Times Obituary of May 3, 2000, quoted Penelope Fitzgerald from 1998 as saying, "I have remained true to my deepest convictions, I mean to the courage of those who are born to be defeated, the weaknesses of the strong, and the tragedy of misunderstandings and missed opportunities, which I have done my best to treat as comedy, for otherwise how can we manage to bear it?"

读后感
在译者序中，写道，"主人公弗萝伦丝其实不懂书，当她在为新书上架时，看到书的扉页上写着，一本好书是一位大师精魂凝结而成的珍贵宝血，是为了超越生命的生命而永久珍藏．看见'血'，'精魂'这样的字眼，就把书放在宗教与家庭医药图书之间．就在那一时刻，我忽然感动无比，惟其不...

评分不知道为什么，每当看见或想起这本书的时候，我就有那么一句话： “我有一个梦想，开一家书店。” 就这么一句话，然后就卡壳了。 我确实想要开一家书店，曾经在无数的课堂上做同一个梦，画同一类的图，我的书店的布局。 在我们还年轻的时候，梦想总是铺天盖地。年老之后，对着...

评分我想说，应该给《书店》封面设计和宣传文案发一份特殊的奖金，如果不是他们，这本书可能卖不到现在这样的数量。 书皮是浅浅的土黄色，纸张并不厚重，好像上个世纪七八十年代出版的翻译小说，几毛钱一本的那种，在图书馆角落的书架上微微的泛着黄。薄薄的一本，字体很是精致漂...

To those who were born defeated and profoundly lost. The ending, with such economy and restraint, is the saddest I’ve ever read....
评分非常老派的narrative以及语言，觉得Kazuo Ishiguro的The Remains of the Day的语言风格居然和这个有点像，隐忍又英式冷幽默又悲伤。另外故事非常丧，文化改变不了社会，有文化的人自私自利，有自己的社会地位，可爱的是对文化没兴趣的底层民众，但文化改变不了他们，Florence最终明白自己居住了10年的小镇根本不需要什么书店！
评分... the town in which she had lived for nearly ten years had not wanted a bookshop.
评分二战后英国海滨小镇寡妇开设书店、遭遇阻力、最终无奈失败的故事，文风近乎白描，恬静淡雅，平静的叙述下流淌着深深的悲伤，有力地谴责了保守思想与权贵阶级对文化与独立人格的扼杀。
评分读的是人人版，结尾居然微虐，所有人突然都背过脸去。与之前读的蓝花，离岸冲淡自然的风格相比，这本要更符合通俗意义上的“精彩”，石头投入水中激起一圈一圈的涟漪，我觉得这本倒更符合布克奖的口味，查了下1978年的获奖作品原来是默多克的大海 ，大海。。。好吧。
