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.

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."

　　 作者毫不介意在主綫的故事中不斷介入期間，磊落大方地為讀者指明他那些既可以被視為字麵意義也可當作隱喻或寓言的情節大體上應該如何進行闡釋，甚至就連這一雙關手法本身，作者都毫不介意將隱喻直截瞭當地比作天鵝，不停地提醒自己和讀者它何時以及為何需要起飛或降落在現實的大地上。如此，讀者既可以享受小說魔術師眼花繚亂的技巧，又不必擔心會陷入技巧的迷宮而失去“意義”——對今天的人類來說尤其害怕失去的東西——的寶藏，因為迷宮的建造者慷慨地賜予瞭指南針。

拉什迪的作品，人人文庫。《匹剋威剋外傳》是十九世紀英國最重要的作傢狄更斯的成名作，1836年齣版。是一部流浪漢小說體裁的作品，全書通過匹剋威剋及其三位朋友外齣旅行途中的一係列遭遇，描寫瞭當時英國城鄉的社會生活和風土人情。該書是狄更斯最為重要、最具代錶性的作品之一，自齣版以來，一直受到各國讀者的歡迎，無可爭辯地成為世界文學的經典名作。《匹剋威剋外傳》是狄更斯的第一部長篇小說，寫老紳士匹剋威剋一行五人到英國各地漫遊的故事。小說情節以匹剋威剋等人在旅途的見聞和遭遇展開，一些故事雖然有相對的獨立性，但是故事的進展又能自然地銜接起來，散而不亂，綫索明瞭。

對遲子建的尊敬來自10年前閱讀她那部《嚮著白夜旅行》時的體驗。作為一名東北人，確切地說是黑龍江人，那是我第一次透過文字感受到瞭這片土地的厚重和風情。後來又陸續讀到遲子建的其他作品，我開始懷疑自己是否有足夠的理由公開我的地域屬性。跟同樣是黑龍江人的遲子建相比，我對黑龍江的陌生竟然猶如擦肩而過的路人。
