The author of dozens of acclaimed novels including those in the Scudder and Keller series, Lawrence Block has long been recognized as one of the premier crime writers of our time. Now, the breathtaking skill, power, and versatility of this Grand Master are brilliantly displayed once again in a mesmerizing new thriller set on the streets of the city he knows and loves so well. </p>
That was the thing about New York -- if you loved it, if it worked for you, it ruined you for anyplace else in the world. </p>
In this dazzlingly constructed novel, Lawrence Block reveals the secret at the heart of the Big Apple. His glorious metropolis is really a small town, filled with men and women from all walks of life whose aspirations, fears, disappointments, and triumphs are interconnected by bonds as unbreakable as they are unseen. Pulsating with the lives of its denizens -- bartenders and hookers, power brokers and politicos, cops and secretaries, editors and dreamers -- the city inspires a passion that is universal yet unique in each of its eight million inhabitants, including: </p>
John Blair Creighton, a writer on the verge of a breakthrough; </p>
Francis Buckram, a charismatic ex–police commissioner -- and the inside choice for the next mayor -- on the verge of a breakdown; </p>
Susan Pomerance, a beautiful, sophisticated folk-art dealer plumbing the depths of her own fierce sexuality; </p>
Maury Winters, a defense attorney who prefers murder trials because there's one less witness; </p>
Jerry Pankow, an ex-addict who has turned being clean into a living, mopping up after New York's nightlife; </p>
And, in the shadows of a city reeling from tragedy, an unlikely killing machine who wages a one-man war against them all. </p>
Infused with the raw cadence, stark beauty, and relentless pace of New York City, Small Town is a tour de force Block fans old and new will celebrate. </p>
上周末去书店买书,看到两本心仪的新书,埃科的《玫瑰的名字》和布洛克的《小城》。由于工作太忙的关系我无法两者兼顾,便略微犹豫地买下了《小城》。 我对于布洛克的喜爱是在慢慢的阅读中建立起来的。先是那个逐渐戒酒的马修,继而是那个别无选择的贼,最后是这本小说,布洛克...
评分 评分给4分推荐,是因为这是布洛克的小说。只给4分推荐,是因为篇幅太短,总有些地方未及展开。还是得成系列才过瘾。 结构有一点点松散,同样是众多人物如走马灯出场的推理小说,《行李箱之曲》在情节上就复杂紧凑得多,更加一气呵成。可是看布洛克的东西,悬疑推理的情节反而显得...
评分卜洛克的这部小说,一定会有很多人讨厌,就像会有很多人爱一般。世界上最伟大也最复杂得城市成为主角,又附加九.一一的标签,争议,口水就注定不可能不在其出现后充斥坊间。 我想说的是,不论这样一部小说和之前的系列相比在结构上作了多大的改变,也不管在遣词用句或角色塑造上...
评分人们常说:爱一座城,是因为爱一个人。私底下替大大小小的城市喊冤,其实,每一座城市自有其独特的气质与个性,在其中沉浸久了,就会体味到不同寻常的气息,而作家们显然更易感于这种气质——易中天用《读城记》表达对于城市的热爱,方方以一位女性作家的视角写自己挚爱的汉口...
慕名买了这本书,网上传得纷纷扬扬,其实是一本很好的书,很多人当颜色书看可惜了,里边好些好段子值得慢慢体会!
