作者简介
雷蒙德·卡佛(1938—1988),美国当代著名短篇小说家、诗人,美国“极简主义”代表作家,并被誉为“新小说”创始者。1938年5月25日出生于俄勒冈州克拉斯坎尼镇,1988年8月2日因肺癌去世。高中毕业后,即养家糊口艰难谋生,业余学习写作。卡佛人生的前一半充满了苦难与失望。失业,酗酒,破产,妻离子散,友人背弃,坠入人生之谷底。晚年文学声名渐高,却罹患肺癌,五十岁便英年早逝。卡佛的作品风格和他自身经历密切相关,精简冷硬。他不是用天才来写作,而是呕心沥血的写作。卡佛一生作品以短篇小说和诗为主,代表作有《请你安静一下好不好?》、《谈论爱情时我们说些什么》、《大教堂》、《何方来电》等。
Raymond Carver was born in Clatskanie, Oregon, in 1938. His father was a saw-mill worker and his mother was a waitress and clerk. He married early and for years writing had to come second to earning a living for his young family. Despite, small-press publication, it was not until Will You Please Be Quiet Please? appeared in 1976 that his work began to reach a wider audience. This was the year in which he gave up alcohol, which had contributed to the collapse of his marriage. In 1977 he met the writer Tess Gallagher, with whom he shared the last eleven years of his life. During this prolific period he wrote three collections of stories, What We Talk About When We Talk About Love, Cathedra l and Elephant. Fires, a collection of essays, poems and stories, appeared in 1985, followed by three further collections of poetry. In 1988 he completed the poetry collection A New Path to the Waterfall.
