The famous opening line of the novel warns of the bleak narrative to follow, "Neither of the Grimes sisters would have a happy life, and looking back it always seemed that the trouble began with their parents’ divorce." Emily and Sarah Grimes are sisters who share little in terms of character but much in terms of disappointment with their lives. Emily, the more intellectual and cosmopolitan of the two, seeks love in numerous disappointing affairs and short-term relationships while Sarah, the prettier and more conventional sister, marries young and bears children to an uncouth and abusive husband. Their troubled, rootless mother, Pookie, like many Yatesian matriarchs, is likely modeled on his own mother, who was nicknamed "Dookie". The novel, beginning in the 1930s when the sisters are children and ending in the 1970s with Sarah's death, primarily revolves around Emily as the book's central character, though the book employs Yates' characteristic and seamless shifts of consciousness throughout.
Richard Yates (February 3, 1926 – November 7, 1992) was an American novelist and short story writer. He was a chronicler of mid-20th century mainstream American life, often cited as artistically residing somewhere between J.D. Salinger and John Cheever. He is regarded as the foremost novelist of the post-WWII Age of Anxiety.

评分高三
评分对于非常打动人的作品,有时反而不知该说些什么,说句“我爱XXX(作者)”可能就够了。耶茨写出了女性在社会中的困境——不论她们的具体社会处境如何,所面临的也无非是相当有限的可能性:婚姻、生育、生存、两性关系。这哪里是评论者常说的“失败者”,耶茨写的明明是我们自己,是每天出现在生活中的你我她。因真实而常被我们忽略,因真实而触目惊心。
评分how vain in the end everything had turned out to be.
我承认,这本书我只看到第二章第二节——网上能找到的所有部分。赶在现在写出这篇书评,想要试着赚一册签名本。 前天晚上,一个朋友发短信来向我推荐这本耶茨的《复活节游行》,“你一定要去看,这是张爱玲后来想写而未写的小说。”阴暗、压抑,但是因明了而通透。像张爱玲说的...
评分从去年读过耶茨之后,我就想为他写一篇书评。如果是为杂志稿写耶茨,我肯定会去仔细查一下他的生平。可我现在不想这样。一个作家需要面对的始终只有他的读者,他的小说就是他的一切。作者要退居到作品之后,尽量不被读者发现自己的影子。若我刻意的去接近作者真实的影像,那就...
评分读耶茨的小说总是让我很难受,很难以面对,不敢承认这样的事实。 但是它确实发生了,那么真实。 我不知道可不可以用平凡来形容主角,但确实是这样的,没有什么大的戏剧性,最多也就是她在野外的第一次,她对生活的态度,对男伴的态度,也许应将这本小说放在很久之前的那个年代...
