This first novel in Alexander McCall Smith’s widely acclaimed The No. 1 Ladies Detective Agency series tells the story of the delightfully cunning and enormously engaging Precious Ramotswe, who is drawn to her profession to “help people with problems in their lives.” Immediately upon setting up shop in a small storefront in Gaborone, she is hired to track down a missing husband, uncover a con man, and follow a wayward daughter. But the case that tugs at her heart, and lands her in danger, is a missing eleven-year-old boy, who may have been snatched by witchdoctors.
The No. 1 Ladies’ Detective Agency received two Booker Judges’ Special Recommendations and was voted one of the International Books of the Year and the Millennium by the Times Literary Supplement.
"Mma Ramotswe walked back towards her van, not wanting to intrude upon the intimate moments of reunion. She was crying; for her own child, too - remembering the minute hand that had grasped her own, so briefly, while it tried to hold on to a strange world t...
評分Ramotswe女士在博茨瓦纳开了第一家侦探事务所,同时也是第一家女士的侦探事务所。但这本书并不是一本侦探小说,你要知道,简单的叙述,一个fat lady在她的tiny white van里走过博茨瓦纳的每个角落,和邻近的地方帮博茨瓦纳善良淳朴的人们解决生活中的疑团——这是她,她的朋友...

評分小说的背景就是在非洲的博茨瓦纳, 一个钻石国。女主的父亲有上百头的牛羊够她卖掉,以建立侦探事务所。 这个故事里有长颈鹿,有想为非洲建立绿洲的年轻人,有走私象牙只为不让老婆瞧不起的丈夫.....个个都充满了非洲特色。
有一種病,叫非洲病,它讓在這片土地上的過客或是原著民,深深愛這裏並且無法自拔,因為這裏的原始等待開拓,這裏的廣袤等待徵服,這裏當然有危險的粗暴的邊緣,像一個黑暗的內核,黑色未知卻充滿暗黑吸引的力量,也許這與人的內心欲望緊緊呼應。是這一切,終於把我們漸漸分開瞭。雖敗猶榮。祝福你。

评分公寓旁邊的垃圾圖書館裏隨便挑著藉的。非洲、黑人、女性、偵探、傳統與現代意識,這麼多(政治正確的)元素明明能夠排列組閤齣無限的可能性,作者卻偏偏選擇瞭最淺薄又最雜亂的一種。推理水平近乎於零、無數次反思“男性之惡”的女主角竟是以跟蹤目標解決所有問題、又被所有男性朋友求婚的真實瑪麗蘇——博茨瓦納國內唯一的女偵探的白色小麵包車在乾涸卻廣袤的非洲大地上悠悠行駛,原本是多麼令人神往的景象啊。
