Title: The Time Traveller's Wife
书名：《时间旅行者的妻子》
Author: Audrey Niffenegger
作者：奥德丽・内芬尼格
Publisher: Cage Publishing

This clever and inventive tale works on three levels: as an intriguing science fiction concept, a realistic character study and a touching love story. Henry De Tamble is a Chicago librarian with "Chrono Displacement" disorder; at random times, he suddenly disappears without warning and finds himself in the past or future, usually at a time or place of importance in his life. This leads to some wonderful paradoxes. From his point of view, he first met his wife, Clare, when he was 28 and she was 20. She ran up to him exclaiming that she'd known him all her life. He, however, had never seen her before. But when he reaches his 40s, already married to Clare, he suddenly finds himself time travelling to Clare's childhood and meeting her as a 6-year-old. The story alternates between Henry and Clare's points of view, and so does the narration. The book ably expresses Clare's longing as the one always left behind, the frustrations of their unusual lifestyle, and above all, her overriding love for Henry.
这本构思巧妙的小说在三个层面上展开：一个引人入胜的科幻概念，一个现实风格的角色刻画，一个动人的爱情故事。亨利・德・坦贝尔是芝加哥的一名图书管理员，在“时空转换”上出现了错乱；不时地，他会没有任何预兆地突然消失并且发现自己来到了过去或未来，通常是其生命中某个重要的时刻或场合。这导致出现了一些似是而非的怪事。在他看来，他第一次见到他妻子克莱尔时，他28岁，而她20岁。她向他跑过来，大声说她自小就与其相识。然而，他以前却从来就没有见过她。不过，当他到了40多岁的时候，已与克莱尔结婚的他却突然发现自己通过时间旅行来到了克莱尔的童年时期，遇见了6岁的她。这个故事的视角在亨利和克莱尔之间进行着变换，而讲述方式亦是如此。此书巧妙地表达了总是被（亨利）甩在身后的克莱尔的渴望之情、他们不同寻常的生活方式中的挫折，而最重要的是，表达了她对亨利那种超脱一切的爱。

Title: Saturday
书名：《星期六》

出版商：维塔奇出版社
Saturday, February 15, 2003. Henry Perowne is a contented man - a successful neurosurgeon, the devoted husband of Rosalind and proud father of two grown-up children. Unusually, he wakes before dawn, drawn to the window of his bedroom and filled with a growing unease. What troubles him as he looks out at the night sky is the state of the world - the impending war against Iraq, a gathering pessimism since 9/11, and a fear that his city and his happy family life are under threat. Later, Perowne makes his way to his weekly squash game through London streets filled with hundreds of thousands of anti-war protestors. A minor car accident brings him into a confrontation with Baxter, a fidgety, aggressive, young man on the edge of violence. To Perowne's professional eye, there appears to be something profoundly wrong with him. Towards the end of a day rich in incident and filled with Perowne's celebrations of life's pleasures, his family gathers for a reunion. But with the sudden appearance of Baxter, Perowne's earlier fears seem about to be realised.
2003年2月15日，星期六。亨利・佩罗恩是一位心满意足之人――成功的神经外科医生、罗莎琳德的专情夫婿，让两位业已成人的孩子引以为豪的父亲。天还没亮，他就异乎寻常地醒来了，被什么吸引到了他的卧室窗前，内心越发地感到不安。而使其在远望夜空之时感到烦闷的是世界的局势（迫在眉睫的伊拉克战争，自“911事件”之后日渐浓厚的悲观情绪）以及对于他所在城市和其快乐家庭生活受到威胁的忧虑。稍后，佩罗恩在挤满了数十万反战示威者的伦敦街道中穿行，一路前往他每周都去打壁球的地方。而一场小车祸让他碰到了巴克斯特，一个毛躁的、咄咄逼人、有暴力倾向的年轻人。以佩罗恩的专业眼光来看，他似乎在哪里出现了很大的问题。在发生了不少事情而佩罗恩也享受了生活的乐趣之后，这一天行将过去，而他的家庭又聚在了一起。但是，随着巴克斯特的突然出现，佩罗恩先前的那些忧虑似乎即将成真。
