Peace Like a River评论

This short novel that is told with almost fable-like simplicity: Matt Harper is a first-time counselor at a boy's summer camp when he witnesses a casual brutality that leads to murder. The bullying, gluttonous headman Ed Nolan (who has "reduced Camp Pleasant to a microcosm of the Third Reich") is portrayed as one stereotype that the reader is not sorry to see killed off. Instead, all of our sympathy is reserved for the possible suspects: Merv Loomis, the homosexual counselor Nolan humiliates into quitting; the troubled ten-year-old Tony Rocca; Nolan's meek wife, Ellen; and several others. The setting and tone have the distinct feel of the early 1950s, but a casual reference to actress Catherine Deneuve places the action in the mid-60s or later.

'Seamus Heaney has gone beyond the themes of his earlier poetry and has made the giant step towards the most ambitious, most intractable themes of maturity. The power of this book comes from a sense that he is reaching out towards a type of desolation and of isolation without which no imagination can be seen to have grown up.' Eavan Boland, Irish Times 'Keyed and pitched unlike any other significant poet at work in the language anywhere.' Harold Bloom, Times Literary Supplement

Edited by J. C. C. Mays Murphy, Samuel Beckett's first novel, was published in 1938. Its work-shy eponymous hero, adrift in London, realises that desire can never be satisfied and withdraws from life, in search of stupor. Murphy's lovestruck fiance Celia tries with tragic pathos to draw him back, but her attempts are doomed to failure. Murphy's friends and familiars are simulacra of Murphy, fragmented and incomplete. But Beckett's achievement lies in the brilliantly original language used to communicate this vision of isolation and misunderstanding. The combination of particularity and absurdity gives Murphy's world its painful definition, but the sheer comic energy of Beckett's prose releases characters and readers alike into exuberance.

吕行发出的最后一封邮件是周末，他跟一位同样注册了“同城约会”的男性朋友交流着彼此的“艳遇”感受，他似乎很中意约会中一位叫“糖”的女人，吕行在给那位男性朋友的邮件里表达了对糖的赞美，说她的确像块奶糖一般会令男人融化……说有机会介绍他们认识。邮件末尾他说会和“糖”去周边某个景区尽情玩几天。我将吕行的邮箱从地址簿中删除了，选择了拒收此用户邮件。虽然这一切意义并不大。吕行，也许他认为他压根谈不上背信弃义，他只是在用男人的方式享受生活，如此而已，那次路过我的城市，他或许认为只是一种相互的成全，如果我因此而衍生出什么，以至对现有生活产生质疑甚至颠覆的念头，那也只是因为我长期生活在内陆城市所造成。
