作者無疑下功夫做瞭功課,大馬二戰背景本身已經很復雜,大馬日英中的文化民俗都有涉獵,一本書裏有采燕窩,有南非人的身份認同,水滸傳和刺青藝術的聯係,還有神風特攻隊的斷背故事…缺點也很明顯,人物都是紙闆人,語言和素材都堆砌得過分,對於曆史傷痛的反思也是淺嘗即止(電影劇本明顯做得更好)。寫得最到位的反而是弓道,大概和作者練習閤氣道有關係吧。夕霧來自源氏物語光源氏的兒子。
評分略煩Yun Ling的victim敘事口吻,景色描寫無敵
評分倒真的覺得無需探討講述者是否誠實,本身與自己迴憶的角力就是構成自我認同的重要部份吧。
評分4 前麵有點悶,不過後勁強大。東南亞角度看二戰和殖民有新鮮感,最後藏寶圖有點齣戲,但山中寺廟和幾段夢境都很有電影感,加上我大愛的師徒禁忌戀,很不錯的非一般反戰小說。
