Two brothers bound by tragedy; a fiercely brilliant woman haunted by her past; a country torn by revolution: the Pulitzer Prize winner and #1 New York Times best-selling author gives us a powerful new novel--set in both India and America--that explores the price of idealism and a love that can last long past death.
Growing up in Calcutta, born just fifteen months apart, Subhash and Udayan Mitra are inseparable brothers, one often mistaken for the other. But they are also opposites, with gravely different futures ahead of them. It is the 1960s, and Udayan--charismatic and impulsive--finds himself drawn to the Naxalite movement, a rebellion waged to eradicate inequity and poverty: he will give everything, risk all, for what he believes. Subhash, the dutiful son, does not share his brother's political passion; he leaves home to pursue a life of scientific research in a quiet, coastal corner of America. But when Subhash learns what happened to his brother in the lowland outside their family's home, he comes back to India, hoping to pick up the pieces of a shattered family, and to heal the wounds Udayan left behind--including those seared in the heart of his brother's wife.
Suspenseful, sweeping, piercingly intimate, The Lowland expands the range of one of our most dazzling storytellers, seamlessly interweaving the historical and the personal across generations and geographies. This masterly novel of fate and will, exile and return, is a tour de force and an instant classic.
裘帕·拉希莉(1967—),印度裔美国作家,出生于伦敦,父母为印度移民,两岁时随父母移居美国。
她著有短篇小说集《解说疾病的人》与《不适之地》、长篇小说《同名人》与《低地》,及随笔集《另行言之》与《书之衣》。
凭借处女作短篇小说集《疾病解说者》,拉希莉获得了2000年度的普利策文学奖,是历史上最年轻的得奖者,此书还获得了美国笔会/海明威奖和欧·亨利奖。《同名人》为她第一部长篇小说,于2006年被改编为电影,广受好评。此外,她还以短篇小说集《不适之地》获得了弗兰克·奥康纳国际短篇小说奖,长篇小说《低地》获得了DSC南亚文学奖。
不愧是普利策奖获得者,温婉又绵长的叙述了一对兄弟和一个女孩之间的故事,以前的历史课常常觉得数字和地名的罗列真是乏味,但是如果听说过其间的具体的爱恨情仇,往往就显得越发震撼和真切了。
评分太沉重了,太感动了,太喜欢了…
评分heartwrenching... but trauma does not have to traumatize us.
评分依然是在倒时差的几夜里读完,总算完成一烂尾楼。 没想到这本书里的故事人物不多,跨度却长。文笔平和,平滑,深厚,悠长,舒展自如,平静之处藏波澜。
评分Remember that the revolution is the important thing and that each one of us alone is worth nothing.
