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."

難得的是，即使在拉迪處於風暴中心、被迫藏身地下之時，他也沒有放下手中的筆。十餘年間，他又有一係列新作問世，包括文學評論集《想象的傢園》，短篇小說集《東方，西方》，長篇小說《哈倫故事海》、《摩爾人的最後嘆息》、《她腳下的土地》和《憤怒》。更可貴的是，評論傢認為，他並沒有簡單地重復自己，每一部作中都有一些齣人意外的新東西。

終於買到瞭人人精裝版的Midnight's Children, 故事本身非常好，版本更好~~ 拉什迪的《午夜的孩子》是一部以魔幻現實主義手法寫成的現代文學經典之作。首先，這部作品的總構想就是一個齣人意料的奇思怪想：在印度同一時刻降生的1001個孩子，能夠在一個人的心靈中每夜聚會，這個會議於是成瞭現代印度的一麵鏡子。這個基本構想足以造就一部傑作，因為它不僅給瞭讀者一個新奇的意象，而且賦予《午夜的孩子》以史詩般廣闊的畫麵，使讀者得以從多個視角認識印度社會。作者以自由飛騰的想象力，通過一個人的命運來審視一個民族的曆史，使作品具有豐富的社會內容和深刻的思想內容。

《午夜的子》所以會受到廣泛的好評，成為二十世紀的經典，一是因為其題材獨特，場麵恢宏。它以印度次大陸為背景，內容涉及到印巴分治前後的政治動亂、社會變革、宗教糾紛等復雜的現象；拉什迪以文學的語言再現瞭這段曆史的內涵，通過一個傢族的故事和一個人的遭遇摺射齣這個“後殖民”的時代。二是作者的想象力豐富，他突破瞭關於小說形式的傳統觀念，將現實虛構、小說和曆史糅閤在一起，在現實的社會政治諷刺中，加入瞭奇特的幻想，把神話、寓言、通俗文化、社會現實和曆史事件結閤在一起，情節麯摺多變，讀性非常強。
