具体描述

内容简介

Inspired by the Indian Mutiny of 1857, The Siege of Krishnapur is set in the fictional town of that name where a British garrison withstands a four-month siege by mutineers. Eventually rescued after undergoing terrible privations, the leading characters all find their ideals tested and their smug assumptions of military and moral superiority severely shaken. In Troubles Major Brendan Archer travels to Ireland in the aftermath of World War I in order to meet his fiancée Angela in a remote seaside hotel owned by her father. Angela dies unexpectedly, but Archer remains in Kilnalough, captivated by the Majestic and its inhabitants, and seemingly unaware of the approaching political storm as Ireland dissolves into revolt and civil war. Both novels combine high comedy with vivid realism and reveal Farrell as 'one of the finest post-colonial novelists' - John Sutherland.

布克奖注重权威性、导向性和公正性，评审由具有专业背景的人士担当。一般评审有五人，由专门委员会指定，分别为书评家、学者、小说家、文学编辑、文化名人等。每年5位评审必须阅读被推荐的100多部作品，从中选出20多本初入围名单，再从这份名单中选出6本进入决赛，最后从这6部作品中选出一位获胜者。

2004年，布克奖打破了地域壁垒，宣布将从2005年开始，每两年颁发一次奖金为60000英镑的布克国际奖（Man Booker International Prize），所有作家，无论国别，只要其作品以英文或有英文译本发表，均有资格获得此奖。本奖奖励作家的全部文学成就，不仅限于小说。首位获奖者将于2005年年中宣布。这使布克奖朝着一项全方位的国际文学大奖迈出了重要的一步。新设立的布克国际奖不会取现有的布克奖而代之，两者将由两个相对独立的评审系统并行评比。根据规定，每位作家只能获得一次布克国际奖。
