科尔姆·托宾的《布鲁克林》是一本克制而简朴的小说，没有直率的激情或机巧的设计，小说充满了生动真实的细节，随着感情的涟漪和型塑生活的怀疑 演进，赋予了读者一种严肃的愉悦。

内容简介

Eilis Lacey is a young woman who is unable to find work in 1950s Ireland. Her older sister Rose organizes a meeting with Father Flood visiting from New York. He tells Eilis of the wonderful opportunities awaiting her with very good employment prospects. Because of this she emigrates to New York and takes up a job in a department store and undertakes night classes in book-keeping. Her initial experiences in a boring job and living in a repressive boarding house, run by the strict Madge Kehoe, make her have grave doubts about her decision. Letters from Rose and her brother are initially upsetting but soon she begins to settle into a routine. Eilis meets and falls in love with a young Italian plumber called Tony at the local Friday night dances organized by Father Flood. This leads to her first sexual encounter and some social consequences as they are overheard by Mrs Kehoe. She qualifies easily from her night school course. Her relationship evolves further and Tony proposes marriage and allows Eilis to meet his family. One day as she is working in Brooklyn she receives a visit from Father Flood informing her that Rose has died in her sleep from a pre-existing heart condition. She has to return to Ireland to mourn and marries Tony secretly before she leaves. In Ireland she falls back into the village society easily and starts a brief relationship with Jim Farrell, a local business man, to whom she had been attracted before emigrating. Her mother is desperate for her to settle back in Ireland and marry Jim. Eilis does not confide in her family or friends about her marriage. Eilis procrastinates about a return to her new life by extending her stay and finding a temporary job. She saves Tony's letters unopened thinking at times that she no longer loves him. Eventually a local busy body, Miss Kelly, tells Eilis she knows her secret because Madge Kehoe is her cousin and somehow the story is out in New York. This is the turning point for Eilis and she immediately books her return passage, tells her mother the whole truth and posts a farewell note to Jim as she leaves town by taxi for the docks.

1950年代，在爱尔兰东南部的小镇上是很难找到工作的。小说主人公Eilis当然也难以拒绝来自美国的工作要约，她前往布鲁克林开始了新生活。尽管她年轻、思乡又孤独，但她依旧很快融入了新生活的节奏中——白天在大型百货公司收银，晚上在布鲁克林 大学上夜校，周末晚上去牧区本堂跳舞，她逐渐找到了另一种幸福感。但坏消息传来，召唤她回爱尔兰；于是她陷入了两难：在彼岸的爱和幸福与故乡的承诺间，该如何取舍。
