This is Alan Hollinghurst's first novel since "The Line of Beauty", winner of the 2004 Man Booker Prize. In the late summer of 1913 the aristocratic young poet Cecil Valance comes to stay at 'Two Acres', the home of his close Cambridge friend George Sawle. The weekend will be one of excitements and confusions for all the Sawles, but it is on George's sixteen-year-old sister Daphne that it will have the most lasting impact, when Cecil writes her a poem which will become a touchstone for a generation, an evocation of an England about to change for ever. Linking the Sawle and Valance families irrevocably, the shared intimacies of this weekend become legendary events in a larger story, told and interpreted in different ways over the coming century, and subjected to the scrutiny of critics and biographers with their own agendas and anxieties. In a sequence of widely separated episodes we follow the two families through startling changes in fortune and circumstance. At the centre of this often richly comic history of sexual mores and literary reputation runs the story of Daphne, from innocent girlhood to wary old age. Around her Hollinghurst draws an absorbing picture of an England constantly in flux. As in "The Line of Beauty", his impeccably nuanced exploration of changing taste, class and social etiquette is conveyed in deliciously witty and observant prose. Exposing our secret longings to the shocks and surprises of time, "The Stranger's Child" is an enthralling novel from one of the finest writers in the English language.

前麵看到落淚,後麵耐心全無。這本書對於我這樣的淺閱讀者來說是不夠友好的。好想看AH寫一本簡簡單單的愛情小說哦,我肯定能被他漂亮的文字戳得稀巴爛……

評分第一星給Hollinghurst平衡感(?)超好的文句,第二顆星給齣色的第一章,然後我再也想不齣理由給更高的評價瞭。第二三章雖然緩慢但尚能忍受,第四章直接變成瞭對耐性的摺磨,老實說沒有任何東西在支撐讀者往下看。匆匆翻過第五章之後隻能放棄。對Hollinghurst大大略感失望orz
加长版莫里斯的情人,嗯。文字好细腻,刚开读。似乎都闻到了塞西的雪茄的味道,丝丝丝丝,吊床里依偎着的两个男孩,鲜活的肉体肆意缠绕…迷离、鬼魅。因为这不一件体面的事,所以我必须在见不得人的夜色中完成,对不起……别多想,这是说的抽雪茄。 以前的人都好讲究。烟盒、正...

評分Hollinghurst的新书《The Stranger’s Child》基本就是一部Gay版《Possession》,都是由虚构的历史人物引出的一连串学术悬疑和文史寻根。 很显然,近年来,这类题材很受追捧。无论是畅销小说作家还是严肃的文学小说的作家都对此类题材情有独钟。 一是这类作品情节跌宕起伏,...

評分1913年夏末,乔治·索尔带朋友、贵族诗人塞西尔·瓦朗斯到两英亩庄园度周末。他十六岁的妹妹达夫妮爱上了塞西尔,却没有发现两个男孩之间隐秘的情愫。 其实全部的谜底在第一章里已经全部揭晓了,我喜欢这种写法。作者无意写成一部长篇悬疑侦探小说。因为所有侦探小说在揭露真相...
