In these spellbinding stories, Yiyun Li, Hemingway Foundation/PEN Award winner and acclaimed author of A Thousand Years of Good Prayers and The Vagrants , gives us exquisite fiction filled with suspense, depth, and beauty, in which history, politics, and folklore magnificently illuminate the human condition.
In the title story, a professor introduces her middle-aged son to a favorite student, unaware of the student’s true affections. In “A Man Like Him,” a lifelong bachelor finds kinship with a man wrongly accused of an indiscretion. In “The Proprietress,” a reporter from Shanghai travels to a small town to write an article about the local prison, only to discover a far more intriguing story involving a shopkeeper who offers refuge to the wives and children of inmates. In “House Fire,” a young man who suspects his father of sleeping with the young man’s wife seeks the help of a detective agency run by a group of feisty old women.
Written in lyrical prose and with stunning honesty, Gold Boy, Emerald Girl reveals worlds strange and familiar, and cultures both traditional and modern, to create a mesmerizing and vibrant landscape of life.

Loneliness serves as a psychological syndrome of our time and is, not surprisingly, in Yiyun Li's stories, distorted or even mystified in China. However, unlike the typical American writers such as McCullers, Li's version of loneliness is depicted in a mundanely cruel way, rendered somewhat sadly legendary by her acute insight and craftsmanship.

Outrageously disappointing. Almost unreadable. In this case, MFA stands for Manufactured For Americans.

因为金童玉女终于读了William Trevor的Three People,写的真的很好,condescension,quiet explosion,说是契诃夫的文学血脉。要继续读这一脉。

-_-Kindness最佳。大概这个时期的李翊云还在摸索自己的风格(用中式的散文思维来写英文小说),所以很多描述都在繁冗和简约间摇摆不定。

语言高于内容,如果翻译成中文,我觉得很多中国读者会意识到这些故事带着90年代故事会的俗套(不知道是不是李翊云拒绝自己的作品翻译成中文的原因)。一句话读后感是李翊云有多厌恶憎恨她自己啊
