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."

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.
評分這本在Goodreads上有一萬多的平均隻有三星的作品在豆瓣上確大受好評。聽瞭三分之一,棄之。感覺有點太散漫瞭。說直白一些,就是沒有寫到我的心上。
評分怪就怪你不該那樣美。 孤獨。
評分ravishingly painful & disturbingly good.

評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...
評分 評分没有序言,没有后记,这是作家出版社的典型风格,原来曾有一批“作家参考丛书”就是这样,不是为普通读者消遣所用。 上周出门前将这本书放到背包内,在飞往美国的飞机上读了一遍,在一周后飞回时又读了一遍。如果不是这样的机会,也不会在一周内读上二遍,否则也不能品出它的...
評分作者的语言给人的感觉就是阴沉,阴沉到呼吸和心跳都放缓了,阴沉到周围的一切都恍惚了,阴沉到似乎世界都静止了。读了会被作者的语言深深地感染着,深陷在主人公的情绪中无法自拔。 《聚会》作者叙述的方式与其说是敞开心扉式的,不如说是透骨式的。像X光片,没有丝毫掩饰和包...
