色,戒

Rate this book
被名導演李安拍成電影的〈色,戒〉,整篇精簡如詩,寫盡女人「感情強烈到是什麼感情都不相干了」的悲哀;〈相見歡〉細細白描出四個老太太圍爐閒話當年的場景,卻有餘韻不盡的淒涼;〈同學少年都不賤〉藉著境遇大不相同的兩個女孩多年後重逢,來表達人生變化無常;〈小艾〉則透著張愛玲小說中少見的光明溫情……

About the author

Eileen Chang

86 books684 followers
Eileen Chang is the English name for Chinese author 張愛玲, who was born to a prominent family in Shanghai (one of her great-grandfathers was Li Hongzhang) in 1920.

She went to a prestigious girls' school in Shanghai, where she changed her name from Chang Ying to Chang Ai-ling to match her English name, Eileen. Afterwards, she attended the University of Hong Kong, but had to go back to Shanghai when Hong Kong fell to Japan during WWII. While in Shanghai, she was briefly married to Hu Lancheng, the notorious Japanese collaborator, but later got a divorce.

After WWII ended, she returned to Hong Kong and later immigrated to the United States in 1955. She married a scriptwriter in 1956 and worked as a screenwriter herself for a Hong Kong film studio for a number of years, before her husband's death in 1967. She moved from New York to Los Angeles in 1972 and became a hermit of sorts during her last years. She passed away alone in her apartment in 1995.

四星半。理智知道是好的,短短几十页却写尽人性复杂,但自己有点难以进入这个故事,虽然早已看过电影。就好像书里写的,“与路上行人都跟她隔着层玻璃”。

但是,爱玲写内心是真精彩啊,“这个人是真爱我的,她突然想,心下轰然一声,若有所失。”爱情的虚是否构成了佳芝人生唯一的实呢?如果她选择被看见被爱,即使是错觉,而不是一切宏大正义呢?

还是要说李安导演厉害,抓得太稳准狠了。读爱玲文字的时候,就觉得对!这个情绪我在电影里见过。

以及说了很久但一直搁置的《今生今世》和《小团圆》,还是要去读一读啊。

這本書是張愛玲的作品一向有的那種蒼涼感、亂世的悲哀、人與人之間親密卻又幽微的互相嫉妒。
其他雜感1. 有多少人忘記這些為了在亂世中努力逃離開所謂新中國的人?2. 有時候同學間或是親戚間好像確實有這種感情,一種很複雜的情感,明明一起經歷很多,但有時卻有種比較心理。3. 愛情總是得不到的是心底的那硃砂~

喜歡:鬱金香、多少恨、色戒(以前就看過電影但書用很短篇幅就展開電影的張力)、小艾、同學少年都不賤
看完就忘:羅文濤三美團圓(故事其實很有趣但真的印象不深)
很難懂:浮花浪蕊(有點難搞清楚故事線要很有耐心)、相見歡(也是跳很大但看過一些書評重看比較好抓出來)

皇冠版實體書。除了《小艾》每篇都很喜歡,當然《小艾》也好。後面幾篇,張愛玲將人物的「存在感」都拉到一個層面,我險些理不清這人物關係,總是一段看完才知道寫了什麼,風格明顯與前期的小說有異,語言更簡練,留白更多。她的小說總還是抱持著「冷」的態度,悲劇性更多,正因為這樣,溫柔的部分更可貴,只是最後破裂得更淒美罷了。
