Winner of the Man Booker Prize for Fiction in 2011 Tony Webster and his clique first met Adrian Finn at school. Sex-hungry and book-hungry, they would navigate the girl-less sixth form together, trading in affectations, in-jokes, rumour and wit. Maybe Adrian was a little more serious than the others, certainly more intelligent, but they all swore to stay friends for life. Now Tony is in middle age. He's had a career and a single marriage, a calm divorce. He's certainly never tried to hurt anybody. Memory, though, is imperfect. It can always throw up surprises, as a lawyer's letter is about to prove. The Sense of an Ending is the story of one man coming to terms with the mutable past. Laced with trademark precision, dexterity and insight, it is the work of one of the world's most distinguished writers.
Julian Patrick Barnes is a contemporary English writer of postmodernism in literature. He has been shortlisted three times for the Man Booker Prize--- Flaubert's Parrot (1984), England, England (1998), and Arthur & George (2005), and won the prize for The Sense of an Ending (2011). He has written crime fiction under the pseudonym Dan Kavanagh.
Following an education at the City of London School and Merton College, Oxford, he worked as a lexicographer for the Oxford English Dictionary. Subsequently, he worked as a literary editor and film critic. He now writes full-time. His brother, Jonathan Barnes, is a philosopher specialized in Ancient Philosophy.
He lived in London with his wife, the literary agent Pat Kavanagh, until her death on 20 October 2008.
聯想到哥本哈根和殺戮演繹,關於記憶的不可靠和不可追溯,和曆史的自欺欺人。Tiiiiiiiiime is on my side. 真是人天大的幻覺。
評分論記憶之不可信
評分第二本Barnes。讀他總感覺像是在讀一個民國作傢,和董橋老先生差不多的感覺…咳咳咳。Reminds me of Swift's Waterland. Unconsolable sadness embedded with immense peacefulness. Tony is not pathetic, is he? He was just trying to be a part of a grand tragedy, instead, had become a mere witness, which may account for his pretentiousness.memory is a funny thing, can it ever be real?
評分很好看,但是結尾有點太模糊瞭,或者說委婉的不夠力道。
評分First read as a memoir, then as an account of stream of consciousness, then as a romance, and then as a mystery. Actually it is more like a brief discussion of history: a winner's story or a loser's escaping dream.
巴恩斯曾称布克奖是“一场高级的赌博”,是否能够得奖,完全取决于评委会的成员是谁,他们的喜好是什么,就像是否中彩票一样。但在得奖之后,巴恩斯表示他确实松了一口气。 首先,我要说,这本书真是一件可以放在书架上观赏的艺术品,即使你根本不想阅读,你也...
評分“当你年轻的时候,你觉得你可以预料岁月可能带来的痛和凄凉。你想像自己孤身一人,离了婚,寡居;孩子们长大后离你而去,朋友们逐渐死去。你想像自己失去了地位,失去了欲望——以及欲望的能力。你可能会进而考虑自己朝死亡而去,无论你能唤来多少陪伴,这过程也只能独自...
評分一句题外话,现在书籍的腰封简直是太浮夸了,弄的好像没有个奖项、没有什么名人推荐就不好意思初版了似的。 这本《终结的感觉》,以我现在的年龄看来,可能还没有太多共鸣,但是让我想起一些小事。可能这种经历每个人都有,有些记忆可能是因为愧疚,甚至耻辱,永远不想提起,...
評分我才开始明白 都因为快乐不能重来今天才难以释怀 难忘怀 都因为悲伤不想重复今天更懂得关怀 才开怀 过去的不该 都变成应该 不能不离开 只能够想开 怕什么愉不愉快 只记得痛不痛快 谁不是这样更好活下来 对上一个伤害 对下一个悔改 谁不是这样越爱越明白 序言说,巴...
