On October 1, God is in His heaven, the stock market stands at 10,140, most of the planes are on time, and Clayton Riddell, an artist from Maine, is almost bouncing up Boylston Street in Boston. He's just landed a comic book deal that might finally enable him to support his family by making art instead of teaching it. He's already picked up a small (but expensive!) gift for his long-suffering wife, and he knows just what he'll get for his boy Johnny. Why not a little treat for himself? Clay's feeling good about the future.
That changes in a hurry. The cause of the devastation is a phenomenon that will come to be known as The Pulse, and the delivery method is a cell phone. Everyone's cell phone. Clay and the few desperate survivors who join him suddenly find themselves in the pitch-black night of civilization's darkest age, surrounded by chaos, carnage, and a human horde that has been reduced to its basest nature...and then begins to evolve.
There's really no escaping this nightmare. But for Clay, an arrow points home to Maine, and as he and his fellow refugees make their harrowing journey north they begin to see crude signs confirming their direction: KASHWAK=NO-FO. A promise, perhaps. Or a threat...
There are one hundred and ninety-three million cell phones in the United States alone. Who doesn't have one? Stephen King's utterly gripping, gory, and fascinating novel doesn't just ask the question "Can you hear me now?" It answers it with a vengeance.
Stephen King lives in Maine with his wife,the novelist Tabitha King.He does not own a cell phone.
对不起,我刚看了第一页,就忍不住要说话了。 第一页上有这样一句话,“这个年轻人大概是用小BB来庆祝某个小小的胜利吧,可能这胜利不一定很小。” 可能这胜利不一定很小。这位上海译文出版社的翻译大姐,您会说话吗? 真败兴,我都懒得再看下去了,都知道我这人没什么耐心...
评分这本书看得我昏昏欲睡, 以莫大的毅力才断断续续看完, 大部分是在厕所里啃完. 人物刻画等于没有, 情节即使不能说老套也是淡得象白开水, 老金拿手的恐怖氛围更是欠奉. 如果是短篇故事还凑合, 可惜硬拉成了长篇. 那个重装系统的原理套用到人脑上实在是囧不可言. 以我看来, 老金...
评分不知道是书排版的问题 还是 畅销作者文字不够新奇。 决定没有肖申克的救赎、布莱泽、纳粹高徒……这些刺激又好读。 太冗长了,……情节不够刺激。 我只是冲着作者的威名去读的,小失望。 上海译文出版社 是不是不太出他的书哇,怎么目录里就几本,最经典的都没 ………… 手机...
正在看中文版,有精力打算看看英文的
评分看的是中文版

评分要记得此书是来美之后,第一次逛costco买的……于是要MARK一下……
评分这个小说吧,现在时代看来可能科技感弱了很多。但是情景描述,故事层级都还是很棒的,惊悚专家嘛。人物塑造也很鲜明,但是感觉老金多少在很多地方有各种个性偏见,用词也比较刻薄,包容心很弱。
