书籍简介

父亲去世后，特蕾莎回到了希腊海岸边的一个小镇——九年前她为母亲哀悼时曾到访过的地方。她再次沉浸在小镇的日常生活中，观察着居民们的日常生活，在宁静的氛围中，她开始反思自己。第一次造访时的一个片段历历在目——她与约翰的邂逅，约翰正努力接受侄子惨死的现实。

很快，特蕾莎又遇到了上次遇到的几个人：古怪的机械师佩特罗斯，他的生活经历或许与约翰相似，或许不同；美丽的尼科，一位潜水教练；以及在绿树成荫的城镇广场上一家咖啡馆当服务员的赞西。她们畅谈各自的渴望、遗憾、时光的流逝以及对自我的理解。《一艘船》构思巧妙，引人入胜，见解深刻，是一部精彩绝伦的小说，探讨了身份、自由意志、内疚和责任等问题。

On losing her father, Teresa returns to a small town on the Greek coast – the same place she visited when grieving her mother nine years ago. She immerses herself again in the life of the town, observing the inhabitants going about their business, a quiet backdrop for her reckoning with herself. An episode from her first visit resurfaces vividly – her encounter with John, a man struggling to come to terms with the violent death of his nephew.

Soon Teresa encounters some of the people she met last time around: Petros, an eccentric mechanic, whose life story may or may not be part of John's; the beautiful Niko, a diving instructor; and Xanthe, a waitress in one of the cafés on the leafy town square. They talk about their longings, regrets, the passing of time, their sense of who they are. Artfully constructed, absorbing and insightful, One Boat is a brilliant novel grappling with questions of identity, free will, guilt and responsibility.
