內容簡介

內容簡介 布克獎得主、《微物之神》作者阿蘭達蒂.洛伊(Arundhati Roy)首部震撼心靈的回憶錄。這是一段既親密又激勵人心的生命書寫,講述她如何成為今日的自己與作家身份的養成——命運與環境塑造了她,而最深的烙印來自她筆下稱為**「我的避風港,也是我的風暴」**的母親瑪莉。在母親過世後,阿蘭達蒂悲痛萬分,甚至對自己情感的強烈反應感到「有點羞愧」——這是她在十八歲時曾選擇離開的母親。於是,她開始動筆寫下這本《聖母瑪莉向我走來》,記錄從喀拉拉到德里、從童年到當下的人生旅程。 本書融合了小說的宏大格局與深度,以及散文的熱情、政治清明與溫暖,既是對自由的頌歌,也是一封寫給複雜母愛與野性優雅的情書,一本前所未見的回憶錄。The incredible first memoir from the Booker-winning radical icon Arundhati Roy, author of The God of Small ThingsArundhati Roy’s first work of memoir, this is a soaring account, both intimate and inspiring, of how the author became the person and the writer she is, shaped by circumstance, but above all by her relationship to her extraordinary, singular mother Mary, who she describes as ‘my shelter and my storm’.Distraught and even a “little ashamed” at the intensity of her response to the death of the mother she ran from at age eighteen, Arundhati began to write Mother Mary Comes to Me. The result is this astonishing, disconcerting, surprisingly funny chronicle―unique and simultaneously universal, of the author’s life, from childhood to the present, from Kerala to Delhi.With the scale, sweep, and depth of her novels and the passion, political clarity, and warmth of her essays, Mother Mary Comes to Me is an ode to freedom, a tribute to thorny love and savage grace―a memoir like no other.
