Rachel Cusk is always an exciting writer: striking and challenging, with a distinctive cool prose voice, and behind that coolness something untamed and full of raw force . . . -- Tessa Hadley

Cusk has glimpsed the central truth of modern life . . . She moves through it as a blasted centre full only of instinct and superhuman hearing and hackles. -- Patricia Lockwood

Fiercely intelligent, with enviable prose that is at once luminous and precise. -- Kathryn Maris ― New Statesman

雷切尔·卡斯克在《提纲》《凌日》和《荣誉》一书中重新划定了小说的边界。在这本书出版后，这位才华横溢的作家带着一系列文章回归，对她毕生工作的核心主题提出了新的见解。这本书包含回忆录、文化和文学评论，有关于性别、政治的文章，还有d·h·劳伦斯(d.h. Lawrence)、奥利维亚·曼宁(Olivia Manning)和纳塔莉亚·金兹伯格(Natalia Ginzburg)等作家的作品，是我们这个时代的必读之书：无畏、执著、博雅，令人惊叹，也值得一看。

其结果是，卡斯克的坦率、深邃的智慧——在她的故事和小说中如此明显——在更广泛的文学过程中产生了共鸣。《放逐》为读者提供了一个难得的机会，让他们看到一种思想在工作，这种思想将在未来影响文学。

'Cements her reputation as one of the most fierce and elegant chroniclers of how we live now.' Stephanie Merritt, Observer

Coventry is a collection of essays about choices, womanhood and art. Encompassing memoir and cultural and literary criticism, with pieces on gender, politics and writers such as D. H. Lawrence, Olivia Manning and Natalia Ginzburg, it is essential reading for our age: fearless, unrepentantly erudite, both startling and rewarding to behold.

Rachel Cusk is the author of the Outline trilogy, the memoirs A Life's Work and Aftermath, and several other works of fiction and non-fiction. She is a Guggenheim fellow. She lives in Paris.
