媒体评价

“21世纪英国文学的里程碑。观察家安德鲁·安东尼说道    

《荣誉》是我读过的最具原创性和必要的书之一。它让我笑，让我想，让我哭……我羡慕那些还没读过这本书的人。《卫报》朱莉·迈尔森报道   

 'A landmark in twenty-first-century English literature.' Andrew Anthony, Observer

'Kudos is one of the most astoundingly original and necessary books I've ever read. It made me laugh, think and cry . . . I envy anyone who hasn't read it yet.' Julie Myerson, Guardian

内容简介

飞机上的一位女士在听坐在她旁边的陌生人讲述他的生活:他的工作，他的婚姻，以及他刚刚为家里的狗狗下葬的那个痛苦的夜晚。那个女人是费耶，她正要去欧洲宣传她刚出版的那本书。一旦她到达目的地，她与她遇到的人的对话都是关于艺术，关于家庭，关于政治，关于爱，关于悲伤和快乐，关于正义和不公——包括人类问的最深远的问题。这是她和儿子最后一次在电话里的谈话，戏剧性地、庄严地得出了一个美丽的结论。    

随着小说的大纲和过渡，Kudos以压倒性的力量完成了Rachel Cusk的三部曲。

A woman on a plane listens to the stranger in the seat next to hers telling her the story of his life: his work, his marriage, and the harrowing night he has just spent burying the family dog. That woman is Faye, who is on her way to Europe to promote the book she has just published. Once she reaches her destination, the conversations she has with the people she meets - about art, about family, about politics, about love, about sorrow and joy, about justice and injustice - include the most far-reaching questions human beings ask. These conversations, the last of them on the phone with her son, rise dramatically and majestically to a beautiful conclusion.

Following the novels Outline and Transit, Kudos completes Rachel Cusk's trilogy with overwhelming power.
