内容简介

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.

作者简介

Salman Rushdie is the author of eight novels, one collection of short stories, and four works of non-fiction, and the co-editor of The Vintage Book of Indian Writing. In 1993 Midnight's Children was judged to be the 'Booker of Bookers', the best novel to have won the Booker Prize in its first 25 years. 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.

精彩书评

"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."

   在发生过的事件与记忆、文字叙述之间的暧昧地带,拉什迪用文学来为近代印度塑造了一块坚实的纪念碑,它的尺寸和重量完全可以媲美任何一位伟大作家曾经树立过的纪念物。

评分

难得的是,即使在拉迪处于风暴中心、被迫藏身地下之时,他也没有放下手中的笔。十余年间,他又有一系列新作问世,包括文学评论集《想象的家园》,短篇小说集《东方,西方》,长篇小说《哈伦故事海》、《摩尔人的最后叹息》、《她脚下的土地》和《愤怒》。更可贵的是,评论家认为,他并没有简单地重复自己,每一部作中都有一些出人意外的新东西。
