內容簡介

This is a history of India since independence, seen through the eyes of characters born on the day that independence was granted. The book is a multi-layered narrative, in which the complexities of the sub-continent are projected through the minds of its many characters.

作者簡介

Salman Rushdie is the author of eight novels, one collection of short stories, and four works of non-fiction, and the co-editor of The Vintage Book of Indian Writing. In 1993 Midnight's Children was judged to be the 'Booker of Bookers', the best novel to have won the Booker Prize in its first 25 years. The Moor's Last Sigh won the Whitbread Prize in 1995, and the European Union's Aristelon Prize for Literature in 1996. He is a Fellow of the Royal Society of Literature and a Commandeur des Arts et des Lettres.

精彩書評

"Allegorical novel by Salman Rushdie, published in 1981. It is a historical chronicle of modern India centering on the inextricably linked fates of two children born within the first hour of independence from Great Britain. Exactly at midnight on Aug. 15, 1947, two boys are born in a Bombay hospital, where they are switched by a nurse. Saleem Sinai, who will be raised by a well-to-do Muslim couple, is actually the illegitimate son of a low-caste Hindu woman and a departing British colonist. Shiva, the son of the Muslim couple, is given to a poor Hindu street performer whose unfaithful wife has died. Saleem represents modern India. When he is 30, he writes his memoir, Midnight's Children. Shiva is destined to be Saleem's enemy as well as India's most honored war hero. This multilayered novel places Saleem in every significant event that occurred on the Indian subcontinent in the 30 years after independence. Midnight's Children was awarded the Booker Prize for fiction in 1981."

很不錯的賣傢,以後還會繼續支持,加油~~

評分

難得的是,即使在拉迪處於風暴中心、被迫藏身地下之時,他也沒有放下手中的筆。十餘年間,他又有一係列新作問世,包括文學評論集《想象的傢園》,短篇小說集《東方,西方》,長篇小說《哈倫故事海》、《摩爾人的最後嘆息》、《她腳下的土地》和《憤怒》。更可貴的是,評論傢認為,他並沒有簡單地重復自己,每一部作中都有一些齣人意外的新東西。

評分

  但這些相似處,乃是作為前輩的遺産而非籠罩的陰影在拉什迪獲得瞭煉金術般的轉變。這不但包括從第三人稱到第一人稱的轉換、一種諷刺性的語調——作為不肯屈服與沉重曆史重壓的反抗,或許與英語文學的傳統有關?——不斷介入到悲愴沉厚的基調中、以可見的譜係中第三代為焦點的敘事運動……更重要的是,拉什迪對整個現代文學和後現代文學的繼承和揚起,簡單說吧:他帶著所有的技巧及其背後的曆史觀訓練,迴歸到故事,以及,最重要的,對意義的追尋。
