书籍介绍

Joan Foster is the bored wife of a myopic ban-the-bomber. She takes off overnight as Canada's new superpoet, pens lurid gothics on the sly, attracts a blackmailing reporter, skids cheerfully in and out of menacing plots, hair-raising traps, and passionate trysts, and lands dead and well in Terremoto, Italy. In this remarkable, poetic, and magical novel, Margaret Atwood proves yet again why she is considered to be one of the most important and accomplished writers of our time.

【加】玛格丽特·阿特伍德(Margaret Atwood)

出生于1939年11月18日,毋庸置疑的诺贝尔文学奖热门候选人。她的作品被翻译成40多种语言,畅销50余国,与莎士比亚的作品一起进入名校教学大纲。

自20世纪60年代起,她出版了近40部小说、18部诗集,塑造了一系列形态各异的女性角色,荣获140多项世界文学重磅奖项,成为当之无愧的加拿大文学女王;“阿特伍德热”更风靡全球,半个多世纪以来一直影响着世界文学。

约17岁时,阿特伍德决定成为作家,她的家人能够包容各种非人类的生物,却无法理解作家这种“生物”,毕竟女人彼时的归宿除了主妇就是打字员。阿特伍德说道,在女作家被视为怪胎的年代,女性表示自己想要成为作家,就像是说自己打算去男洗手间小便一样——要么胆子贼大,要么品味奇差。

《神谕女士》是阿特伍德的第三部长篇小说作品,为读者展现了一个胖女孩琼坎坷...

用户评论
她的多重生活和不断逃离。大概,好像,是我当年会用ESC的原因
Female’s language is used and the female landscape in the panorama of life is embed. In stories of male’s perspective, the fragility and jiggle in marriage would be scarcely noticed, furthermore,if the occupation is a writer, it would be barely necessary to camouflage the real identity and cover up the real thoughts. It’s a real feministic novel.
她一直在逃离、掩埋过往及过往对自己造成的伤害,可是过往却如同幽灵如影随形,直到最后一刻她决定不再躲藏,勇敢直面。阿特伍德的文本非常丰富,文笔干净利落。我在恰当的时间读到这本书。如果是五年前,我未必能读到当下这般通透。
总觉得故事线的处理有很多loose ends,主题的表现因为太明显反而模糊了。
前半有點痛苦,但到後半便明白了...
这本是Atwood作品中读到现在最喜欢的一本
very excellent beginning but it faded as the part of Joan's puberty grew unnecessarily long, and the main story itself picked up the silliness it attempted to criticize. The tiresome length diluted any possible style the story may have been capable of forming and it spoiled the humor.
