西尔弗是一个孤儿，飘无定所，由瞎子皮欧收养。皮欧是拉斯角的灯塔看守人，行踪神秘，给西尔弗讲述了许多跨越时空的旅行故事。这些故事围绕巴别尔•达科展开，他是一个十九世纪的牧师，一生过着一半光明一半黑暗的生活。达科的故事照亮了她的生活。像是一张穿越黑暗的地图。她在不断的失败中，守着这份光，不断成长，最终找到了自我和爱情。
这是一部才华横溢的闪光之作，语言如此纯粹、优美，让人不时赞叹不已。
Lighthousekeeping tells the tale of Silver (“My mother called me Silver. I was born part precious metal, part pirate.”), an orphaned girl who is taken in by blind Mr. Pew, the mysterious and miraculously old keeper of a lighthouse on the Scottish coast. Pew tells Silver stories of Babel Dark, a nineteenth-century clergyman. Dark lived two lives: a public one mired in darkness and deceit and a private one bathed in the light of passionate love. For Silver, Dark’s life becomes a map through her own darkness, into her own story, and, finally, into love.
One of the most original and extraordinary writers of her generation, Jeanette Winterson has created a modern fable about the transformative power of storytelling.
