圖書描述

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.

著者簡介

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

“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...

Does geography guarantee security? 人类的迁徙行为大体上是为了更好的生存。排除天灾人祸(如战乱,如人口膨胀),人们背井离乡到新的天地,是对安定的寻求,是对美好生活的追逐。 Hawthorne曾经在The Custom-House里表达: transplanting people into new soil makes them ...

发表时间:2011-12-04 11:32:00 一周里,利用闲暇的时光,看完了这本短篇小说集。封面很干净,连带着打印的字也让人很舒心。其实看完再回想,虽然第一部分是5个短篇,全书的气息是一致的,就好像一个人她可以穿不同的衣服,打扮成不同的样子,她还是她。     “倘...

上海,这个初夏陡然高温到三十五度的时候,泡上一杯好友寄自佛国莲台九华山的“九华佛茶”,慢慢展开了茱帕·拉希里的《不适之地》,慢慢品茶,慢慢读书,不知觉间,清凉萦怀。    茱帕·拉希里的整本小说集《不适之地》共分两部,第一部是五个小短篇,分别是《不适之地...  

評分

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...
