The sixteen exquisitely crafted stories in Island prove Alistair MacLeod to be a master. Quietly, precisely, He has created a body of work that is among the greatest to appear in English in the last fifty years. A book-besotted patriarch releases his only son from the obligations of the sea. A father provokes his young son to violence when he reluctantly sells the family horse. A passionate girl who grows up on a nearly deserted island turns into an ever-wistful woman when her one true love is felled by a logging accident. A dying young man listens to his grandmother play the old Gaelic songs on her ancient violin as they both fend off the inevitable. The events that propel MacLeod's stories convince us of the importance of tradition, the beauty of the landscape, and the necessity of memory.

Reticence. Scot lit 選讀的書,值得重讀但是由於太沉重瞭以後算瞭。。。
评分3.5 不可否認是好書 但抱歉 這種書絕對不會是我自己因為興趣想讀的類型 目前看過的比較好的幾個story:The Boat, Island 文字太浮誇 描寫風景根本不想看 總體來說比較無聊

评分從沒有作傢能把人、自然、動物同時寫得這麼好:布雷頓島上風霜雪暴的嚴酷鼕天,與死亡和孤獨為鄰的礦工、漁夫、伐木工人和看島人,古老的蓋爾語,母牛、羊、柯利犬。Island是麥剋勞德給那失落的傳統和時代譜寫的一麯挽歌。
