The Gathering is a novel by the Irish author Anne Enright. It is Enright's fourth book. It won the 2007 Man Booker Prize. It had been an outsider to win the prize, but was eventually chosen unanimously.
The novel is a saga about an Irish family set in Ireland and England.It begins with the suicide of Liam Hegarty. His family gather in Dublin for his wake. Liam's sister Veronica, the novel's narrator, looks through her family's history to try and make sense of his death. In the process she uncovers uncomfortable truths about her family. Enright described the book as "...the intellectual equivalent of a Hollywood weepie."

幻想多于现实
评分A dark and fragmentary record about family, past trauma and death; the book is about delving into the dark past and seeking reconciliation with it. It's sanity and madness, devastation and redemption, opening a wound and healing it all at the same time.It's a rich book. I have to confess that much of its content is beyond my understanding.
评分这本在Goodreads上有一万多的平均只有三星的作品在豆瓣上确大受好评。听了三分之一,弃之。感觉有点太散漫了。说直白一些,就是没有写到我的心上。

评分得到这本书纯数是个偶然,办事途中经过学校附近的一家二手书屋,居然发现角落里堆着像A Thousand Splendid Suns,The Time Traveller's Wife这样的原版书,不容易的呢,而且价格才十几块钱,不过垃圾书也不少,我翻了半天挑中了这本零七年的布克奖作品,本意也无非是拿回去压箱...
评分为父母担心的孩子不曾见识,被父母伤害的伤痕。那些留在我们身体上、心理上的伤痕,我们要如何和它们相处呢?这是个歌颂成功、赞美甜蜜的世界。我们这种残破的功能不全者,向内得不到家庭之暖,向外得不到社会认可支持。我们在哪里才可以坦然生存呢? 有时候的做法是,带上面具...
