A provocative new novel from the bestselling author of The Joy Luck Club and The Bonesetter's Daughter .
On an ill-fated art expedition into the southern Shan state of Burma, eleven Americans leave their Floating Island Resort for a Christmas-morning tour-and disappear. Through twists of fate, curses, and just plain human error, they find themselves deep in the jungle, where they encounter a tribe awaiting the return of the leader and the mythical book of wisdom that will protect them from the ravages and destruction of the Myanmar military regime.
Saving Fish from Drowning seduces the reader with a fagade of Buddhist illusions, magician's tricks, and light comedy, even as the absurd and picaresque spiral into a gripping morality tale about the consequences of intentions-both good and bad-and about the shared responsibility that individuals must accept for the actions of others.
A pious man explained to his followers: "It is evil to take lives and noble to save them. Each day I pledge to save a hundred lives. I drop my net in the lake and scoop out a hundred fishes. I place the fishes on the bank, where they flop and twirl. 'Don't be scared,' I tell those fishes. 'I am saving you from drowning.' Soon enough, the fishes grow calm and lie still. Yet, sad to say, I am always too late. The fishes expire. And because it is evil to waste anything, I take those dead fishes to market and I sell them for a good price. With the money I receive, I buy more nets so I can save more fishes."

读后感
原版没看过，蔡骏这个译写版的真是乏善可陈，现在看到76页，我已经用勒接近一周时间，可见这书是多么让人昏昏欲睡，我这版是06年11月的，当时买完匆匆读勒一遍，时隔九年，无聊翻书看见这本，突然想不起来书中故事，就想仔细再读一遍，现在读到76页，期间数次感觉乏味的不行，...
评分看过相关评论之后才知道原来贝塔斯曼已经在中国销声匿迹了，去年五月在武汉的光谷广场大洋百货家乐福超市还见到实体店。不知道现在怎么样了。 书看了一半，搁在了书架上。 实在想不通，蔡骏怎么就可以一个作家的身份去改变另外一个作家的作品。或许那个时候的他也算得上年轻...
评分潭恩美是美国著名的作家之一。在她早先的每一本小说中，她用作品中所散发的神秘力量成功的引诱了读者。尤其在《喜福会》和《接骨师之女》中，她所展示的那种人际关系的复杂和痛苦也迷惑着我们，特别是母女关系。历史上不清晰的部分也不知不觉的变成了作者本身的经历，她让我们...
评分猜想应该是翻译的缘故，书中硬伤不少。而且作者的语言风格和营造的气氛削弱了很多。谭恩美还是比较适合写中国背景的华裔母女之间的故事，这种灵异小说不太吸引人。
评分好吧，我觉得这是我迄今为止度过最好的书了。现在貌似接触的一般都是以死者口吻记述的。其实并不知道谭恩美，在图书馆看到被题目吸引才看的。作者是美籍华人，还带点历史背景的，便更喜爱了。蔡骏的书看过一点，不过实在看不下去。 内容真的很有想象力！最后都标出泪了。。 想...

This is the nature of endings, it seems. They never end.
评分有的小说还是要看原版的好。
评分普普通通吧
评分这是我的硕士毕业论文的研究题目。华人女性的细腻。这一次增加了悬念和机智的幽默感。
评分找到了这本童年阴影????
