From the Back Cover

The debut title in Ecco's the art of the Story Series—a collection of twelve short works of fiction that showcase Tobias Wolff's extraordinary craft

In the Garden of the North American Martyrs, Tobias Wolff's first collection of short fiction, hailed the arrival of a major talent and the beginning of an acclaimed, bestselling career. In each of these sharply crafted stories, his characters, drawn from everyday life, stumble over each other in their baffled yet resolute search for the "right path."

Among the characters in these twelve stories are a teenage boy who tells morbid lies about his home life; a timid professor who, in the first genuine outburst of her life, pours out her opinions in spite of a protesting audience; a prudish loner who gives an obnoxious hitchhiker a ride; and an elderly couple on a golden anniversary cruise who endures the offensive conviviality of the ship's social director.

这种书读来只会让人郁闷。书中形形色色各种人物,各种年龄,各种身份,各种关系,未必不得志,未必缺少爱,未必没有荣光时刻,未必觉得人生不值得一过,但就是不开心,这种不开心不是特定针对某件事某个人,而像是一种形而上的不开心,因为人生就是如此啊,漫长乏味,看不到尽...

這人的寫作風格很疏懶,其實倒是《紐約客》專職作傢。一個精明之處是小說裏通常隻流露一個人的所思所想,而其餘人都在此人的鏡頭下被反復端詳。一旦(在某幾篇裏)作者跳齣這種模式,錶明他對這個人物都沒有什麼同情瞭。

介於三星半與四星之間吧。很有一種風格的短篇,比較“收”,句點之後總還有點什麼的那種。

最近讀過的最帶感的短篇集,每篇都那麼好,描寫得那麼精準。請等待我的譯本,預2014年齣版。
