Winner of the 2011 Man Booker Prize
By an acclaimed writer at the height of his powers, The Sense of an Ending extends a streak of extraordinary books that began with the best-selling Arthur & George and continued with Nothing to Be Frightened Of and, most recently, Pulse.
This intense new novel follows a middle-aged man as he contends with a past he has never much thought about—until his closest childhood friends return with a vengeance, one of them from the grave, another maddeningly present. Tony Webster thought he’d left all this behind as he built a life for himself, and by now his marriage and family and career have fallen into an amicable divorce and retirement. But he is then presented with a mysterious legacy that obliges him to reconsider a variety of things he thought he’d understood all along, and to revise his estimation of his own nature and place in the world.
A novel so compelling that it begs to be read in a single sitting, with stunning psychological and emotional depth and sophistication, The Sense of an Ending is a brilliant new chapter in Julian Barnes’s oeuvre.
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.
真动人,读完就不会总惦记冬天要去中央公园看鸭子了。
评分重读
评分普通吧
评分听闻改编成电影了于是把这本呆在我长长长长的待读列表许久的书借来看了。读了几十页我就有点后悔,这可能是一本获奖的流水账,撑过去到后面突然exciting起来(rollercoaster indeed)(当然聪明的读者已经发现了什么)。作为一个unreliable narrator来说tony真的是太average了(therefore relatable)但又有点说不上来的可爱。总的来讲是比较有意思但不是很有意思的小说。另外我要质问一下作者为什么要abuse “corroboration”……翻两页就能碰见强行背单词orz
评分看完书评后才明白了到底发生了什么
我钦羡那些勇于做自己的人,因为这么做不容易,也不是谁都能做到。 接纳真实的自己一点都不简单,不是谁都愿意去碰自己潜意识的暗流,以及直面这种触碰带来的不安和恐惧。大多人都会选择一种更稳妥和容易的方式来“做自己”,比如美化记忆,不去想潜意识里的暗流。我也这么选择...
