雷蒙德·卡佛 Douban
Raymond Carver
author: [美]卡萝尔·斯克莱尼卡 translator: 戴大洪 / 李兴中 publishing house: 龙门书局 2011
《雷蒙德•卡佛:一位作家的一生》作为20世纪后半期美国最有影响力的短篇小说家，卡佛艰难而传奇的一生使得他的写作真正具有呕心沥血的色彩——他前半生充满苦难与失望；晚年文学声名渐高，却罹患肺癌，50岁便英年早逝。卡佛出身贫苦，他的作品也致力于表现普通人被生活打得遍体鳞伤后的孤独与沉默，多年来深受读者追捧，被誉为美国的契诃夫。
这本传记的作者卡萝尔•斯克莱尼卡怀着对卡佛深切的敬意和同情，耗时十年，做了大量的研究工作，阅读了卡佛所有的作品，并走访了数百位与卡佛有关的人士，其中包括卡佛的家人，全面记述了卡佛的成长历程，为我们提供了许多非常珍贵的研究作家的史料。她的描述丰富而清晰，没有歪曲回避卡佛私人事务中的敏感问题，解密并分析了大量卡佛小说的创作背景及主要意旨，读来令人大开眼界，甚至能够改变读者原本对于某些卡佛经典小说的习惯性理解。这其中最有价值的莫过于对卡佛写作历史的记述，及其写作历程中与编辑之间错综复杂而又不甚愉快的关系，这些都对卡佛的作品产生了深刻影响，必定有助于读者了解到一个更加完整的雷蒙德•卡佛——他非比寻常的抱负、传奇式的生活和不朽作品的故事。
