具体描述
“A novel of immeasurable sadness, in a league with Graham Greene’s The End of the Affair . John Boyne is very, very good at portraying the destructive power of a painfully kept secret.”
— John Irving
A masterfully told tale of passion, jealousy, heroism and betrayal set in the gruesome trenches of World War I.
It is September 1919: twenty-one-year-old Tristan Sadler takes a train from London to Norwich to deliver a package of letters to the sister of Will Bancroft, the man he fought alongside during the Great War.
But the letters are not the real reason for Tristan's visit. He can no longer keep a secret and has finally found the courage to unburden himself of it. As Tristan recounts the horrific details of what to him became a senseless war, he also speaks of his friendship with Will--from their first meeting on the training grounds at Aldershot to their farewell in the trenches of northern France. The intensity of their bond brought Tristan happiness and self-discovery as well as confusion and unbearable pain.
The Absolutist is a masterful tale of passion, jealousy, heroism, and betrayal set in one of the most gruesome trenches of France during World War I. This novel will keep readers on the edge of their seats until its most extraordinary and unexpected conclusion, and will stay with them long after they've turned the last page.

读后感
The feather man，胆小鬼。这部小说的英文名其实不叫The feather man，而是叫The absolutist。小说被归类为“同性小说”，但其实也就是一个战争中的爱情故事。文字上，我觉得非常好，因为足够紧密，足够厚实，叙事令人有很强的代入感，甚至我总是觉得男主人公的思维方式和说话...
评分Will的深柜让人想抽醒他！但除此之外他太完美了，勇敢，正直，聪明，坚定，还俊美，年纪轻轻的，悟了道，又殉了道了。Tristan也是好孩子，是Will各方面的equivalent，可他开悟的是“爱”，可怜为爱受尽了苦，孤独地活了八十多年。神经质的Marian也有着一颗善良又坚强的心，也没...

结局过于烂俗
评分最后四十页比较出色。总体感觉铺垫不足
评分Love is a fool's game. Love is the bullet in your lover's heart.
评分结局过于烂俗
评分Audiobook read by Michael Maloney。几乎是一口气听下来的，叙事和悬念设置都十分引人入胜，人物形象塑造不太够火候，过于平面化，但也无伤大雅，算是一本好书了。Will的结局真是虐到我，这样一个为了原则连死都不怕的人，终还是有能够伤到他的东西的。
