ISLAND SUMMERS: MEMORIES OF A NORWEGIAN CHILDHOOD
Book ID/图书代码： 02000013B62364
English Summary/英文概要： ‘My grandmother bought the island. The year was 1947 and she was thirty-three, a couple of years older than I am now. She was the visionary sort of person who can make something magical out of very little.’
From the moment that Tilly’s grandmother, Mor-mor, set eyes on the rocky outline of Småhølmene, it captured her imagination. Legend has it that she bought the island in exchange for a mink coat.
Every summer from then on, she and her young family would escape from their life in the English countryside to its rugged outcrops and sparkling waters. Mor-mor loved Småhølmene fiercely. Lean and chic, she smoked voraciously and would scandalise the local islanders by roaming around naked, flanked by her standard black poodle, Cheri. Her children spent their days running wild, thieving for gull eggs, rowing on the lagoon, and foraging for island raspberries, which Mor-mor would sandwich together with whipped cream to make into a sukkerkake.
Thirty-five years later, Tilly spent her first summer on Småhølmene. Her Mamma kept up the rituals that she herself had learnt from Mor-mor, and Tilly discovered in the island a living link between her family’s past and its present. Glittering and bittersweet, this is the captivating story of the women who made Småhølmene their own: a land of childhood adventures, of magical summers, and of Tilly’s first romance.
Chinese Summary/中文概要： “我的祖母买下了这个小岛。这一年是1947年，她33岁，比我现在大了几岁。她是很有远见的人，可以让一些很小的事情发生奇迹。”
从那个时候开始，蒂莉的祖母莫莫着眼于Småhølmene的岩石，它抓住了她的想象力。据说，她用一件貂皮大衣买下此岛。
从那时起，每到夏天，她和她的年轻家庭会从英国的乡下生活逃离，来到这个岩石裸露，湖水波光粼粼的小岛。莫莫非常喜欢Småhølmene。她把这里装扮的精益和别致，她会贪婪的抽烟，然后用裸泳来挑衅当地的居民，身边站着她的黑色狮子狗，雪丽。她的孩子在这里无拘无束的玩耍，他们偷窃海鸥蛋，在湖上赛艇，采摘岛屿上的树莓，然后莫莫会将它和奶油一起做成奶油三明治。
三十五年后，蒂莉在Småhølmene度过了她的第一个夏天。她的妈妈一直保持着从莫莫那里学到的礼仪，蒂莉在岛上发现了她过去的家和现在的家的联系。这是关于一个女人如何把Småhølmene变成她自己的故事，故事灿烂迷人也是苦乐参半。这个岛是蒂莉童年冒险和刺激的夏天的地方，也是她第一次谈恋爱的圣地。（LNL）
