书名：Waterland《水之乡》
作者：Graham Swift
简介：Two East Anglian families are linked by a deep secret in Graham Swift’s eloquent and poignant exploration of water, history, desire and tragedy."Perfectly controlled, superbly written, and, as they used to say, riveting. Waterland is original, compelling and narration of the highest order." - The Guardian UKTom Crick is a history teacher, but the history that absorbs him is his own and his family’s. Driven by a marital crisis and the provocation of one of his pupils, he forsakes his teaching to relate the story of his family who have lived in the Fens since the 18th century. The past, with its secrets and oddities, hangs heavy on him, pushing him towards a heartbreaking new disaster in his life."Waterland, like the Hardy novels, carries with all else a profound knowledge of a people, a place, and their interweaving... Swift tells his tale with wonderful contemporary verve and verbal felicity... A fine and original work." -
