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."

英國作傢拉什迪最有名的著作之一，當然，還有一本更著名的，但估計我們買不到。此書入選讀者評選的100本英國人最愛讀的書之一。因看到人人文庫有此書，立馬下單。嗚嗚，沒趕上大活動。但估計碰到活動，咱就買不到瞭。感謝京東的努力。現在可能還是京東上人人文庫的書最多，價格也最厚道。

拉什迪的作品中，最有代錶性最齣色的便是《午夜的孩子》。《午夜孩子》讓他獲得瞭國際聲譽，使他和加西亞•馬爾剋斯、米蘭•昆德拉和君特•格拉斯等世界級文學大師並駕齊驅。這部小說原文四百餘頁，1981年齣版後，文學界好評如潮，《紐約書評》稱它是“這一代人英語世界齣版的最重要的書籍之一”。《倫敦書評》認為它是“印度對英語小說最新最齣色的貢獻”。《泰晤士報》有人撰文說“自從閱讀過《百年孤獨》以來，還從來沒其他小說像它這樣令人驚嘆。”它連續獲得瞭英國文學的最高奬項布剋奬及詹姆斯•泰德•布萊剋紀念奬、英國藝術委員會文學奬和美國的英語國傢聯閤會文學奬。1993年，該書又榮獲為紀念布剋奬設置二十五周年而頒發的大奬“特彆布剋奬”。1999年，美國著名的蘭登書屋齣版社評選齣一百部二十世紀最佳英語小說，該書便名列其中。
