Passing On
Booker-Prize winning author Penelope Lively is that rare writer who goes from strength to strength in book after perfectly assured book. In Passing On, she applies her distinctive insight and consummate artistry to the subtle story of a domineering and manipulative mother's legacy to her children. With their mother's death, Helen and Edward, both middle-aged and both unmarried, are left to face the ramifications of their mother's hold on their lives for all of these years. Helen and Edward slowly learn to accept what has been lost in their own lives and embrace what can yet be retrieved. "The richest and most rewarding of her novels." - The Washington Post Book World黄氏先生
问:什么是失眠?答:失眠就是夜间睡不着或醒后不能入睡;失眠的感觉就是心烦。这是我的高中同学、主治医师王志向的回答。这种说法既冷漠又愚蠢透顶。因为失眠没有昼夜之分,心烦也仅仅是失眠的初级阶段。正确的答案应该是:白天没精打采,面色苍白,眼圈发青;夜晚来临,早早地吃下安眠药,烫了热水澡,躺在床上,先和枕头较劲,再跟被子讨好,一闭上双眼,心里忐忑不安,疑虑重重:能睡着吗?接着,尝试各种登录睡眠的办法,一遍一遍地数数,正着数,倒着数——无效;盯着漆黑的天花板,想象着天上的白云朵朵——没用;一心向佛,连续默念阿弥陀佛——不灵;想象自己变成了一只蝴蝶,缓缓地飞来飞去……结果蝴蝶是蝴蝶,你还是你,你还是失眠,失眠的还是你——全都白费!震撼中国的100位英雄模范人物
这是一次对英雄事迹的重温,也是一次对烽火年代的回望。所有的重温和回望,都是因为在这些远去的英烈们的身上,深藏着我们民族不可失落的魂魄。阅读他们的故事,从中感受到生命的韧劲与执著;走进他们的内心世界,心灵会得到无数次震撼与洗礼。
