具體描述

內容簡介

Inspired by the Indian Mutiny of 1857, The Siege of Krishnapur is set in the fictional town of that name where a British garrison withstands a four-month siege by mutineers. Eventually rescued after undergoing terrible privations, the leading characters all find their ideals tested and their smug assumptions of military and moral superiority severely shaken. In Troubles Major Brendan Archer travels to Ireland in the aftermath of World War I in order to meet his fiancée Angela in a remote seaside hotel owned by her father. Angela dies unexpectedly, but Archer remains in Kilnalough, captivated by the Majestic and its inhabitants, and seemingly unaware of the approaching political storm as Ireland dissolves into revolt and civil war. Both novels combine high comedy with vivid realism and reveal Farrell as 'one of the finest post-colonial novelists' - John Sutherland.

2005年6月2日,首屆布剋國際奬在倫敦揭曉,獲奬者為阿爾巴尼亞小說傢伊斯梅爾·卡達萊(Ismail Kadare)。評委會主席約翰·凱裏(John Carey)評論道:“伊斯梅爾·卡達列描繪齣瞭完整的文化——包括它的曆史,它的熱情,它的傳說,它的政治和它的災難。他采用瞭傳統的講故事的方式進行創作,繼承瞭荷馬史詩的敘事傳統,是一位博學多纔的作傢。”
