图书描述

Eight stories—longer and more emotionally complex than any Lahiri has yet written—that take us from Cambridge and Seattle to India and Thailand as they enter the lives of sisters and brothers, fathers and mothers, daughters and sons, friends and lovers.

From the internationally best-selling, Pulitzer Prize–winning author, a superbly crafted new work of fiction: eight stories—longer and more emotionally complex than any she has yet written—that take us from Cambridge and Seattle to India and Thailand as they enter the lives of sisters and brothers, fathers and mothers, daughters and sons, friends and lovers.

In the stunning title story, Ruma, a young mother in a new city, is visited by her father, who carefully tends the earth of her garden, where he and his grandson form a special bond. But he’s harboring a secret from his daughter, a love affair he’s keeping all to himself. In “A Choice of Accommodations,” a husband’s attempt to turn an old friend’s wedding into a romantic getaway weekend with his wife takes a dark, revealing turn as the party lasts deep into the night. In “Only Goodness,” a sister eager to give her younger brother the perfect childhood she never had is overwhelmed by guilt, anguish, and anger when his alcoholism threatens her family. And in “Hema and Kaushik,” a trio of linked stories—a luminous, intensely compelling elegy of life, death, love, and fate—we follow the lives of a girl and boy who, one winter, share a house in Massachusetts. They travel from innocence to experience on separate, sometimes painful paths, until destiny brings them together again years later in Rome.

Unaccustomed Earth is rich with Jhumpa Lahiri’s signature gifts: exquisite prose, emotional wisdom, and subtle renderings of the most intricate workings of the heart and mind. It is a masterful, dazzling work of a writer at the peak of her powers.

著者简介

Nilanjana Sudeshna "Jhumpa" Lahiri was born in London and brought up in South Kingstown, Rhode Island. Brought up in America by a mother who wanted to raise her children to be Indian, she learned about her Bengali heritage from an early age.

Lahiri graduated from South Kingstown High School and later received her B.A. in English literature from Barnard College in 1989. She then received multiple degrees from Boston University: an M.A. in English, an M.A. in Creative Writing, an M.A. in Comparative Literature and a Ph.D. in Renaissance Studies. She took up a fellowship at Provincetown's Fine Arts Work Center, which lasted for the next two years (1997-1998).

In 2001, she married Alberto Vourvoulias-Bush, a journalist who was then Deputy Editor of TIME Latin America Lahiri currently lives in Brooklyn with her husband and two children. She has been a Vice President of the PEN American Center since 2005.

Lahiri taught creative writing at Boston University and the Rhode Island School of Design. Much of her short fiction concerns the lives of Indian-Americans, particularly Bengalis.

She received the following awards, among others:

1999 - PEN/Hemingway Award (Best Fiction Debut of the Year) for Interpreter of Maladies;

2000 - The New Yorker's Best Debut of the Year for Interpreter of Maladies;

2000 - Pulitzer Prize for Fiction for her debut Interpreter of Maladies

Lahiri的第三本书,渐入佳境。印裔的生活,看似学业与工作一路平坦,背后却是对父母与族群的妥协,只剩下狼藉的爱情来做对自己的交代(当然也有局外者)。吐槽:这本是英版,字太小了!还有错别字……最后一个小中篇的结局也不喜欢,地震海啸像是作者偷懒的借口。

读后感

评分

“倘若世世代代都在同一处不再肥沃的土地上反复扎根,人性就会像将马铃薯种在这片土地上无法繁茂茁壮。我的孩子们已经诞生在他处,即便我能力所及、掌控得了他们的命运,他们也将在不适之地扎根。”这段话出自美国作家霍桑的名作《红字》,被曾获奥康纳国际短篇小说奖第一名的...

移民文学究竟会走到什么境界?除了疏离、恐惧、遗憾,是不是有些东西被蒙在移民文学这个标签下缺少了更深层次的思索,只是因为不适所以更多的问题凸显了,比如爱情,比如失去,比如童年。从这个角度说,拉西里写什么样的故事是不重要的,即使是曲折反复的爱情故事,也看过太多...

美籍孟加拉裔印度移民茱帕•拉希里的短篇小说集《不适之地》,好到让人吃惊。 春节过后,飞去外地与亲友小聚,行前抓本薄点的书飞机上读。去途第一篇,也就是用作书名的《不适之地》读了一半,虽被其纤细、安静的书写所吸引,但由于近在眉睫的相聚,并不太能静下心来。久别...  

评分

作者少年写了个短篇集得普利策成名。写来写去大都是印度孟加拉裔跑到美国东北某藤校读博士,然后写那种背景的一代二代的故事。看起来很无趣没什么可写的一群,因为海外大部分30岁以上的中国人也是类似背景,华人论坛上的话题总是那些,但作者却能一本接一本的写,还写出新意,...  

评分

不适之地,第一篇和第三篇印象深刻,这些故事仔细回想,好像什么故事性的事情都没有发生。没有超出于普通生活之外的任何情节,但是很奇怪,就是非常吸引人,非常有画面感。叙述手段是主角,偶尔的神游心理活动,加上一些生活琐碎,整个节奏都是不疾不缓,匀速推动。好像是第一...
