特別推薦：《最新漢英特色詞匯》   Author: Anita Shreve  List Price: $25.95 Pages: 336 Publisher: Little, Brown and Company   ISBN: 0316738999            | Book description | Bill and Bridget were sweethearts at Maine's Kidd Academy who rediscovered one another at their 25th reunion. Bridget was already divorced; Bill left his family; the two have now gathered their Kidd coterie to witness their hasty wedding—Bridget has breast cancer—at widow Nora's western Massachusetts inn. The death of charismatic schoolmate Stephen at a drunken high school party hovers over the event. Stephen's then-roommate, Harrison, now a married literary publisher, remains particularly tormented by it, especially since he had (and still has) romantic feelings for Nora, who was Stephen's then-girlfriend. Abrasive Wall Street businessman Jerry, now-out-of-the-closet pianist Rob, single Agnes (who teaches at Kidd and has a secret of her own) and various children round things out. Tensions build as the group gets snowed in, and someone gets drunk enough to say what everyone's been thinking. 七位高中同學(xué)在分離二十七年后，因為一場婚禮而相聚。新郎Bill與新娘Bridge曾是一對情侶，卻在畢業(yè)后分手，不過Bill在兩年前重新向與癌癥奮斗的單親媽媽Bridge求婚。他們決定在婚禮中把高中死黨找來重聚。七人中最具領(lǐng)導(dǎo)特質(zhì)的Stephen已在一次意外中喪生，出席婚禮的成員包括在原高中教歷史的Agnes；在紐約經(jīng)商的Jerry與他太太；鋼琴師Rob與他的伙伴；出版商Harrison與新娘的兒子Matt。這次的相聚，Stephen的去世仍深深影響了他們，他們彼此之間也充滿了秘密，在這次聚會中漸漸發(fā)酵。 About Author Anita Shreve is the author of The Pilot's Wife (1998), Fortune's Rocks (1999), The Last Time They Met (2001), Sea Glass (2002) .
