DARLING WINSTON: FORTY YEARS OF LETTERS BETWEEN WINSTON CHURCHILL AND HIS MOTHER

Book ID/图书代码： 00530019C00203

English Summary/英文概要： Darling Winston is an edited collection of the personal letters between Winston Churchill and his mother, Jenny Jerome, between 1881, when Churchill was just six, and 1921, the year of Jenny’s death. Many of these intimate letters between two gifted writers are published here for the first time, and the exchange of letters between mother and son has never before been published as a correspondence.

A significant addition to the Churchill canon, Darling Winston traces Churchill’s emotional, intellectual and political development as confided to his main mentor, his mother. As well as providing a basic narrative of Jenny’s and WSC’s lives over a forty-year period, Darling Winston tells the story of a changing mother-son relationship, characterised at the outset by WSC’s emotional and practical dependence on his mother, but which is dramatically reversed as her life crumbles tragically towards its end.

Chinese Summary/中文概要： 《亲爱的温斯顿》是温斯顿•丘吉尔和他的母亲珍妮•杰罗姆之间的私人信件集，从1881年丘吉尔只有6岁的时候到1921年珍妮去世的时候。这两位天才作家之间的许多私信都是第一次面向世人，母子之间的书信往来也从来没有作为书信集发表过。

作为丘吉尔教规的一个重要补充，《亲爱的温斯顿》一书追溯了丘吉尔的情感、智力和政治上的成长，他人生的主要导师母亲的倾诉。《亲爱的温斯顿》不仅讲述了珍妮和丘吉尔四十年来的生活，还讲述了一个母子关系不断变化的故事，其特点是丘吉尔一开始对母亲的情感和真实的依赖，但当她的的生命在接近尾声时这点悲剧性的扭转了。（YYW）

“精彩的信件” 每日电讯报

“这本信件集很有意思……它们给人以深刻的印象，因为它们不可避免地是后见之明。没有比大卫劳写得更好的指南了，他为数百封信件做了注释和背景解释，因此整本书就像丘吉尔前半生的混合传记/自传佳作……这种极好的书信往来使我们对这种独特关系有了一些真正的了解。” 新政治家

’A significant addition to the Churchill canon’ Oxford Times.

’Fascinating correspondence’ Daily Telegraph.

’This collection of letters is fascinating ... they shine a piercing light on the man, informed as they inevitably are by benefit of hindsight. And there is no better guide than David Lough, who provides linking commentaries and context to the hundreds of letters, so that the whole volume acts as a king of hybrid biography/autobiography of the first half of Churchill’s life ... This superb exchange of letters allows us some real understanding of this unique relationship’ New Statesman.
