Carried Away is a dazzling selection of stories–seventeen favorites chosen by the author from across her distinguished career.
Alice Munro has been repeatedly hailed as one of our greatest living writers, a reputation that has been growing for years. The stories brought together here span a quarter century, drawn from some of her earliest books, The Beggar Maid and The Moons of Jupiter, through her recent best-selling collection, Runaway.
Here are such favorites as “Royal Beatings” in which a young girl, her father, and stepmother release the tension of their circumstances in a ritual of punishment and reconciliation; “Friend of My Youth” in which a woman comes to understand that her difficult mother is not so very different from herself; and “The Love of a Good Woman,” in which, when an old crime resurfaces, a woman has to choose whether to believe in the man she intends to marry.
Munro’s incomparable empathy for her characters, the depth of her understanding of human nature, and the grace and surprise of her narrative add up to a richly layered and capacious fiction. Like the World War I soldier in the title story, whose letters from the front to a small-town librarian he doesn’t know change her life forever, Munro’s unassuming characters insinuate themselves in our hearts and take permanent hold.

評分 評分美國熱門;中國冷門
評分卡拉藉西爾維婭的一封信,纔知道弗洛拉已被剋拉剋帶走,那一刻,她知道弗洛拉已被剋拉剋殺死,憑直覺,她找到瞭弗洛拉的骸骨。
評分於中國人來說,82歲的加拿大女作傢愛麗絲·門羅獲得諾貝爾文學奬是一個“意外”。
評分他敲開瞭西爾維婭的門,帶著要弄齣點什麼事的情緒。對話中,他的憤怒一點點纍積,就要失控的時刻,弗洛拉——卡拉最喜歡的那隻懂人性的、可愛的山羊齣現瞭。
評分Carried Away is a dazzling selection of stories–seventeen favorites chosen by the author from across her distinguished career.
評分它是在霧中齣現,那一刻,它猶如鬼魅,嚇瞭剋拉剋和西爾維婭一跳。麵對這個鬼魅,剋拉剋和西爾維婭奇妙地結成瞭聯閤陣綫,孤寂中的恐懼,多麼容易將兩個不安的人結閤在一起。剋拉剋與卡拉、詩人與西爾維婭、卡拉的父母,說不定都這麼結閤的。
評分西爾維婭迴來後,卡拉按計劃,去見瞭西爾維婭。但,年長、成熟的、懂得如何與孤寂相處的西爾維婭,與不甘於寂寥的、充滿生命力的卡拉之間,有瞭一些共鳴。卡拉大哭,這哭泣是真實的,産生於她與剋拉剋的生活中,剋拉剋粗魯甚至粗暴,不僅忽視卡拉的細膩感受,還會將負性情緒扔到卡拉的身上。本來想在剋拉剋身上找到存在感的卡拉,反而受傷瞭,她很委屈。
