Kenny同志 Posted January 21, 2010 at 10:56 AM Report Posted January 21, 2010 at 10:56 AM 我想买几本英国当代小说或者散文看看,大家能不能推荐一下。最好文字洗练流畅,有一定深度。 先行谢过诸位。 Quote
skylee Posted January 21, 2010 at 11:09 AM Report Posted January 21, 2010 at 11:09 AM 不是英國的行不行? 看過Kazuo Ishiguro 的書嗎?我覺得 The Remains of the Day 挺好看。 Quote
gato Posted January 21, 2010 at 12:14 PM Report Posted January 21, 2010 at 12:14 PM 我也非常喜欢The Remains of the Day. 散文可以试试伦敦书评: London Review of Books: http://www.lrb.co.uk/v32/n02/perry-anderson/sinomania. 如果非英国的英文作品也可以,我推荐“New Yorker”杂志和Alice Munro的短篇小说。 Quote
skylee Posted January 21, 2010 at 12:59 PM Report Posted January 21, 2010 at 12:59 PM 我剛看了書架一下,英國的真的不多 (Bridget Jones's Diaries, Adrian Mole's Diaries, Maeve Binchy 的書大概不能算作文學吧)。 如果你也(像我一樣愛旅行也)喜歡遊記的話,可以看看Bill Byrson 的書,他是美國人,不過旅居英國多年。 如果不介意看美國作者的書的話,The Kite Runner 也很不錯。如果不介意翻譯的書的話,當然你也可以看看Paulo Coelho 和 米蘭昆德拉的書 (雖然我不是太喜歡 Coelho 的書……)。 Quote
Kenny同志 Posted January 21, 2010 at 01:58 PM Author Report Posted January 21, 2010 at 01:58 PM 谢谢二位。对了,可不可以推荐一下英美散文写得好的作家?不同作家的散文集也可以。 Quote
gato Posted January 21, 2010 at 03:02 PM Report Posted January 21, 2010 at 03:02 PM (edited) 我看的报告文学比较多,其实跟散文很像。Peter Hessler写中国, Ken Auletta和Connie Bruck写媒体, Nicholas Lemann写美国政治, George Packer写外交, Paul Goldberger写建筑, Anthony Lane写影评都是业内最好的,都经常给New Yorker投稿。 如果你想看更接近中国文人写的那种散文大概也有,比如美国小说家Walker Percy的一些文章就有点像散文,我也很喜欢。 Other superb writers to try out: VS Naipaul, Jonathan Spence, Bertrand Russell, Ian Buruma.

Kenny同志 Posted January 22, 2010 at 05:45 AM Author Report Posted January 22, 2010 at 05:45 AM (edited) 非常谢谢,Gato, 也谢谢Skylee。谢谢二位推荐。其实我老早就想买本罗素的《幸福之路》,可惜原版的太贵了,一直没买。罗素文笔洗练流畅,颇具思想深度,我很喜欢。买了本他的《西方哲学史》,还没看完。呵呵。 Edited January 22, 2010 at 06:00 AM by kenny2006woo Quote
