【内容简介】
一段错综复杂的爱情，三种截然不同的爱情观。
奥利弗爱上了挚友斯图尔特的妻子吉莉安。
----------------------------------
奥利弗：爱情是以市场力量的法则运行的。
“爱情与金钱相似，都遵循市场力量的统治。它们想到哪里，就去哪里。爱情的价值也会像货币一样涨涨跌跌。”
吉莉安：爱情就这样发生了。
“我嫁给了斯图尔特，然后又与奥利弗相爱了。我没有为此感到洋洋得意。有些方面我还很厌恶呢。但事情就这样发生了。”
斯图尔特：爱情是幻觉。
爱情是一个幻觉。这个幻觉的存在，是因为每一个人都同意把某种价值加在它的身上。
作者简介
朱利安•巴恩斯Julian Barnes
英国当代知名文学作家，英国文坛三巨头之一，用智慧征服全欧洲的文学鬼才。包揽英国、法国、奥地利、丹麦、意大利等国文学奖项17项，荣誉勋章5枚，获奖记录横贯欧洲各国！
他的作品曾三次进入布克奖决选，成为布克奖常客，并终于凭借《终结的感觉》拿下2011年布克奖。他创作的《尚待商榷的爱情》，获得了法国两大至高文学奖之一费米娜外国小说奖，全世界发行超过58个版本，并且被改编成经典舞台剧，二十多年后仍在芝加哥剧院上演。
“聪明”是巴恩斯作品的一贯标志，他的创作以对历史、现实和爱情的深入思考著称，被看成是实验文学、人文主义、哲性思考的独特结合，小说中的人物通常是为日常生活与情感所困的普通人。他获得布克文学奖时，评委盖比•伍德称：“这种受困于庸常生活的人生悲剧，如此感人，如此让角色深陷其中，以至于他们只能盲目地、片面地面对这种悲剧。而这，正是真正大师级小说的标志。”
【 Content Introduction 】
A complicated love, three very different views of love.
Oliver falls in love with his best friend Stuart's wife, Gillian.
----------------------------------
Oliver: Love works by the laws of market forces.
"Love, like money, is governed by market forces. Wherever they want to go, they go. The value of love can rise and fall like money."
Gillian: That's how love happens.
"I married Stuart, and then I fell in love with Oliver. I'm not proud of it. There are parts of it I hate. But it just happened."
Stuart: Love is an illusion.
Love is an illusion. This illusion exists because everyone agrees to attach some value to it.
About the author
Julian Barnes
He is a famous contemporary British literary writer, one of the three giants of British literature, and conquers all the literary talents of Europe with wisdom. Won 17 literary awards from Britain, France, Austria, Denmark, Italy and other countries, 5 MEDALS of Honor, winning records across Europe!
His book was shortlisted three times for the Booker Prize, becoming a regular and finally winning the 2011 Booker Prize with The Sense of an End. His Love to Be Discussed, which won the Fermina Prize for Foreign Fiction, one of France's two highest literary prizes, has been distributed in more than 58 editions around the world, and has been adapted into a classic stage play, which is still performed in Chicago theaters more than 20 years later.
"Cleverness" is the hallmark of Barnes's work, which is known for its deep thoughts on history, reality and love, and is seen as a unique combination of experimental literature, humanism, and philosophical thinking. The characters in his novels are often ordinary people who are trapped by everyday life and emotions. When he won the Man Booker Prize, judge Gabe Wood said: "This tragedy of life trapped in ordinary life is so moving, so deeply involved in the characters, that they can only face it blindly and partially." And that is the mark of a truly masterful novel."
