On a clear day, you could see 'America' from Edinburgh's Castle Rock - or so said Alice Munro's great-great-great-grandfather, James Laidlaw, when he had drink taken. Then, in 1818, Laidlaw left the parish of 'no advantages', of banked Presbyterian emotions and uncanny tales - where, like his more famous cousin James Hogg, he was born and bred - and sailed to the new world with his family. This is the story of those shepherds from the Ettrick Valley and their descendants, among them the author herself. They were a Spartan lot, who kept to themselves; showing off was frowned on, and fear was commonplace, at least for females ...But opportunities present themselves for two strong-minded women in a ship's close quarters; a father dies, and a baby vanishes en route from Illinois to Canada; another story hints at incest; childhood is short and hazardous. This is family history where imperfect recollections blur into fiction, where the past shows through the present like the tracks of a glacier on a geological map. First love flowers under an apple tree while lust rears its head in a barn; a restless mother with ideas beyond her station declines painfully; a father farms fox fur and turkeys; a clever girl escapes to college and then into a hasty marriage. Beneath the ordinary landscape there's a different story - evocative, frightening, sexy, unexpected, gripping. Alice Munro tells it like no other.

一个月看完门罗的这本,人名太多,不得不反复。 可以说岩石堡风景是小说,也可以说是传记。我愿意选择前者,因为书里仍然到处是门罗的影子。 门罗总在回忆和质疑,小说里也总是那几位角色,辛苦劳作的父亲,常年卧床的母亲,活泼开朗却不乏攻击性的继母,从小就想借着婚姻逃离...

評分生和死的宽度 是被细节填满的 动物少有细节可言 或许只是人类疏于观察 尽管人做的事 未必只是多样性上的优越 因为并未脱离生存 动物的周期很容易被看出来 甚至很短 从活着到死去 被抽离了信息的祖先也是如此 像生命的荒原 只留下毛茸茸的坟墓和墓志铭 一旦赋予了名字,个性,喜...
