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."

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 评分不敢说我看懂了这本书,但我却真的努力去看,去弄明白:这是怎样一个故事?主人公到底想说什么? 英国人的思维很有特点,很直白,到了粗暴的地步。经常让人措手不及吓一跳。但却又让人不得不佩服他的深刻。家的温情(如果说还有的话)隐隐显现在无情之中,需要人们去找。
