Mrs Dalloway
On a June morning in 1923, Clarissa Dalloway is preparing for a party and remembering her past. Elsewhere in London, Septimus Smith is suffering from shell-shock and on the brink of madness. Their days interweave and their lives converge as the party reaches its glittering climax. Here, Virginia Woolf perfected the interior monologue and the novel's lyricism and accessibility have made it one of her most popular works. -
时时刻刻
要说清楚这本书的来龙去脉实在是有点绕,它跟电影《时时刻刻》有何关系呢? 先说电影《时时刻刻》,该电影根据美国杰出作家迈克尔·坎宁安1998年的同名小说改编,该小说获得次年的普利策奖。小说围绕《Mrs.Dalloway(一般被译为“达洛维夫人”)》作者伍尔芙,讲述三个女人一天中的时时刻刻:伍尔芙在严重的神经衰弱影响下创作《达洛维夫人》;纽约女编辑克拉丽莎,绰号即“达洛维夫人”,命运和小说中的达洛维夫人有着千丝万缕的联系;怀孕的中年主妇劳拉·布朗是《达洛维夫人》的读者,为生活的烦闷所包围。小说叙事手法别出心裁,思想内涵深刻,被好莱坞搬上银幕,经由妮可·基德曼、梅丽尔·斯特里普、茱丽安·摩尔激情演绎后立即凭借卓越的艺术表现,荣膺全美评委会大奖第60届金球奖最佳影片,第75届奥斯卡将9项提名。 而本书就是那本深具魔力的小说《Mrs.Dalloway》的中文翻译版!书名没有按常规译为“达洛维夫人”,而起名为《时时刻刻》!尽管出版社有借机炒作的嫌疑,我们也可以认为是对对维吉尼亚·伍尔芙的又一次致敬吧。 “《时时刻刻》证明了电影是一种艺术。” -美国有线电视新闻网CNN “本年度最重要的电影,会是奥斯卡的大赢家。” -《早安美国》 “斯蒂芬·戴得利和戴维·黑尔的电影描述了三个不同时代的女人的一天。一日复一日,时时刻刻都进行的生命得到应有的赞颂。电影可以设定是在1921年,或者1951年,或者2001年,但这主题永远都生动而迫切。” -《新闻周刊》 “美丽的演出,极度关注生活的导演,《时时刻刻》从开始到结束,都紧紧抓住你的心,让你的眼睛须臾不离银幕,这是一件艺术品。” -拉里·金 我认为这部电影应该获得奥斯卡最佳影片 -梅丽尔·斯特里普 内容简介: 《时时刻刻》(又译《达洛维夫人》)是英国女作家维吉尼亚·伍尔芙的一部代表性小说。小说中以一天的活动为框架,展现了女主人公的一生事情、她的性格与命运、她的亲人和朋友、她与上流社会的丈夫达路维及平民情人皮特的三角关系等等——小说中有人际间的恩恩怨怨,有对青春少女的美好的描述、同性恋、自杀,有老年来临的种种恐慌,有对权贵的嘲讽和对社会名流的丑恶揭露,有对战争罪行的控诉,有对强国侵略弱国的抨击,有对下层民众艰难生活的同情,有对女权的呼吁;生与死、灵与肉、爱与恨、金钱与名誉、外在与内心、理智与情感、出世与媚俗……小说内容跌宕多姿,令人读得惊心动魄。 维吉尼亚·伍尔芙在世界文学中占有极其重要的地位。她是“作家中的作家”,维吉尼亚·伍尔芙与法国的普鲁斯特和爱尔兰的乔伊斯一起,共同开创了意识流文学流派,是意识流的代表作家之一。 维吉尼亚·伍尔芙天资卓绝,她忍受着精神疾病的折磨,极为勤奋地创作出了大量的作品。对于她的作品,历来有许多争论,但随着时间的推移,在今日西方对研究者越来越多、评价越来越高,比较公认的是,她的作品“变得越来越成为她的时代、她的精神世界和现代艺术思想的精髓”。 -
Virginia Woolf
Virginia Woolf is one of the most influential figures in twentieth-century literature. She was original, passionate, vivid, dedicated to her art. Yet most writing about her still revolves around her social life and the Bloomsbury set. In this fresh, absorbing book, Julia Briggs puts the writing back at the center of Woolf's life, reads that life through her work, and mines the novels themselves to create a compelling new form of biography. Analyzing Woolf's own commentary on the creative process through her letters, diaries, and essays, Julia Briggs has produced a book that is a convincing, moving portrait of an artist, as well as a profound meditation on the nature of creativity. Virginia Woolf: An Inner Life-a brilliant new insight into a literary genius. -
