读完这本书也就大半年了,一直都想写点感想,结果是还没有仔细消化一下,就赶着读
下一本小说了,我的to read单子也太长了,总之,读书总比写感想更加有趣,所以就
一直拖下来了,转眼这一年就要过去了,趁着版庆机会,就写个读后感吧。

我最先对于David Mitchell感兴趣,还是在读了他的《云图》以后。在看电影之前,我
匆匆把《云图》过了一遍,对于他的写作风格,他对文字和情节的驾驭,非常欣赏。首

z*i 发帖数: 58873 | 2 Holly Sykes是个15岁的英国小女孩,背着家里和一个比她大不少的摩托酷哥谈恋爱。
可当她发现这个渣男友和最好的女同学睡在一起的时候,整个世界就崩溃了。 15岁女
生的世界总是很容易崩溃,于是她决定离家出走。可是Holly并不是一个普通的孩子,
所以她的离家出走之路必然会不一般,一路上怪人怪事层出不穷,而这次离家出走的道
路也成了她不平凡一生的先兆。这本书其实讲的就是Holly的一生。
全书分为六个部分,每部分POV和故事风格不同。 在这里我自由发挥来命名一下各个部
分。
第一部分: "Holly in Wonderland" - Holly离家出走的故事。
第二部分: "The Talented Mr. Lamb" - Holly的一夜情男友。
第三部分: “The Choice of Ed Brubeck" - Holly的生孩子没结婚的Partner。
第四部分: "The Fall of Crispin Hershey” - Holly的一个作家朋友,有点类似于
Soul Mate。

b*s 发帖数: 82482 | 39 小说《Cloud Atlas (云图)》 (无剧透)
感谢Booker的简介。上个星期六拿到了这本书,到昨天终于结束了。在不剧透的前提下
,说一下感想。
首先,简要介绍一下作者,David Mitchell。英国人,算是“青年”作家,1969年生。
有写古怪小说的历史。他的第一本小说,《Ghostwritten》,也是一本很古怪的作品,
跟这本《云图》有些类似,据说没有《云图》这么老练,毕竟是处女作。
前两年的《New Yorker》上有他的2010年新书《The Thousand Autumns of Jacob De
Zoet》的Review,把他跟Eco和Nabokov比较。据说这本《The Thousand Autumns of
Jacob De Zoet》有一些海战的描写,让人想起Patrick O’Brian,另一个我很喜欢的
作家。这本新书讲述荷兰东印度公司跟日本的交往中的故事,又是一个我很感兴趣的题
材。这本书已经放到我的书单上了。
绕回来,接着说《云图》。这本书是2004年的作品,当年的Man Booker的Shortlist,
还有2005年的星云奖提名。

小说《Cloud Atlas》介绍:
http://www.mitbbs.com/article_t0/LeisureTime/838753.html
Souls cross ages like clouds cross skies, an' tho' a cloud's shape nor hue
nor size don't stay the same, it's still a cloud an' so is a soul. Who can
say where the cloud's blowed from or who the soul'll be 'morrow? Only Sonmi
the east an' the west an' the compass an' the atlas, yay, only the atlas o'
clouds.

G*******e 发帖数: 219 | 48 In August 1994, Democratic Senate Majority Leader George J. Mitchell
