THE FORGOTTEN WALTZ
Book ID/图书代码： 11701210B41595
English Summary/英文概要： THE FORGOTTEN WALTZ is a memory of desire: a recollection of the bewildering speed of attraction, the irreparable slip into longing. In Terenure, a pleasant suburb of Dublin, in the winter of 2009, it has snowed. Gina Moynihan, girl about town, recalls the trail of lust and happenstance that brought her to fall for ‘the love of her life’, Seán Vallely. As the city outside comes to a halt, Gina remembers the days of their affair in one hotel room or another: long afternoons made blank by bliss and denial. Now, as the silent streets and the stillness and vertigo of the falling snow make the day luminous and full of possibility, Gina waits the arrival on her doorstep of Seán’s fragile, twelve-year-old daughter, Evie – the complication, and gravity, of this second life.
In this extraordinary novel, this opening book of secrets, Anne Enright speaks directly to the readers she won with the success of THE GATHERING. Here, again, is the sudden, momentous drama of everyday life, the volatile connections between people; that fresh eye for each flinch and gesture; the wry, accurate take on families, marriage, brittle middle age. The same verve and humour and breathtaking control are evident; the ability to merge the ordinary and the beautiful. With THE FORGOTTEN WALTZ Enright turns her attention fully to love – you might even call it romance – as she follows another flawed and unforgettable heroine on a journey of the heart. Writing at the height of her powers, this is Anne Enright’s tour de force, a novel of intelligence, passion and real distinction.
Chinese Summary/中文概要： 《被遗忘的华尔兹》是一次欲望的记忆：扑朔迷离的吸引速度，无法满足的渴望。在都柏林令人愉悦的郊外Terenure，2009年冬天，天下着大雪。吉娜•莫伊尼汉，一位城市女孩回忆起带给她此生最爱——肖恩•瓦利的偶然和冲动。记忆停顿在城外，吉娜记得他们在宾馆房间或其他地方的恋情：幸福和揶揄交织的漫长而慵懒下午。现在，沉默的街道、寂静和雪天的眩晕让这一天变得耀眼夺目，一切皆有可能。肖恩已经非常虚弱了，吉娜在等待她十二岁的女儿，伊维——这第二次生命的复杂和沉重。 在这部不平凡的小说，这本公开秘密的书中，安妮•恩莱特直接与读者对话，她的小说《集会》获得了成功。在这里，再一次突现日常生活的重大戏剧场景和人与人之间的关系波动，让人们对每一次退缩和姿势而眼前为之一亮；扭曲但不失精确地瞄准家庭、婚姻和脆弱的中年危机。同样的幽默和气魄以及惊人控制力是显而易见的，她有着能够融合平凡和美的强大能力。伴随着《被遗忘的华尔兹》，恩赖特把她的注意力完完全全投向了爱——你甚至可以称之为浪漫——正如她在心灵之旅中追随另一位有缺陷但令人难忘的女主人公一样。以她能力的高度写作，本小说恩莱特的杰作，一本充满智慧、激情和真正独特的小说。(兼职翻译-JDM)
