  5. Boris Pasternak - Dr Zhivago (1957)

  5. 鲍里斯·帕斯捷尔纳克--《日瓦戈医生》(1957)

  While Pasternak was an acclaimed poet, he only published one novel: Dr Zhivago. The controversial tome struggled to get published because of Pasternak's controversial attitude to socialism in soviet Russia. The manuscript was smuggled out of Russia before being published in Italy. When the novel won Pasternak the Nobel Prize in 1958, he was forced to turn it down by the Soviet authorities - or else face exile or prison. However, it was not this strife which meant Pasternak never published another novel, but the fact he died two years later from lung cancer.

  虽然帕斯捷尔纳克是一个著名的诗人,但他曾出版过唯一的一部小说《日瓦戈医生》。由于作者对于苏联社会主义的态度引发争议,所以这部小说的出版过程相当艰难。小说手稿是在被私运出苏联之后才在意大利出版的。1958年帕斯捷尔纳克凭借这部小说获得诺贝尔文学奖,但苏联政府强迫他拒绝奖项,否则将对其施以放逐或监禁。当然并不是这场斗争导致帕斯捷尔纳克不再写小说的,而是两年后他因肺癌去世了。

  6. Anna Sewell - Black Beauty (1877)

  6. 安娜·休厄--《黑骏马》(1877)

  English novellist Sewell wrote the equine children's classic in the last years of her life while she confined to bed by ill health. There she worked on it for seven years, finally being published six months before she died - just long enough for her to witness its instant early success.

  英国作家休厄生命中的最后几年因病在床上度过的,在此期间她写下了这部与马有关的经典儿童小说。她花了7年的时间完成它,最终在去世前6个月得以发表,使得她能够亲眼见证自己的成功。

  7. Marcel Proust - In Search of Lost Time (A la recherche du temps perdu) (1913-1927)

  7. 马塞尔·普鲁斯特--《追忆似水年华》(1913-1927)

  Its 4,215 pages are split over seven volumes, but In Search of Lost Time counts as one novel. Proust started writing it in 1909, and was still working on until he fell ill for the final time, weeks before his death in November 1922. Although the sprawling novel continued to be published five years after his death, Proust raised the funds to publish the first part of it himself in 1913.

  虽然4215页的长度被分成七卷,但《追忆似水年华》只是一部小说。普鲁斯特于1909年开始创作,直到1922年11月因病去世前的那段时间依然在写作。1913年普鲁斯特自己筹钱发表了小说的第一部分,他去世之后,这部小说又接连发表了五年的时间。
