和国内的情况差不多,据说欧洲的严肃小说作家也难以登上销售排行榜,我们已经习惯把作品分成两部分,纯文学,畅销文学,好像文学无非这两类,这么分天经地义。例外总是有的,有个家伙不仅怀揣布克文学奖之类诸多分量颇重的奖杯,还在销售排行榜上独领风骚达半年之久,甚至有夸张戏谑的说法,说他的小说就像地铁通票一样,人手一册。是谁可以既严肃又畅销,轻巧巧打了个通关?这个狠角色就是——麦克尤恩。他那部在排行榜上跨年称雄的作品便是——《赎罪》。 Similar to the situation in China, it is said that serious European novelists are also hard to boast sales charts. We have become accustomed to dividing works into two parts: pure literature and best-selling literature. Exceptions are always there, a guy not only contains the Booker Literature Award and many other heavyweight trophy, but also in the sales rankings domineering for six months, and even exaggerated joking argument, saying his novels Like the subway pass, a manpower. Who can be both serious and popular, clever clever play a clearance? This ruthless character is - McEwan. His piece New Year’s Eve title works - “Atonement.”
