具體描述
From the Booker Prize-winning, bestselling author of Remains of the Day comes this stunning work of soaring imagination.
Born in early-twentieth-century Shanghai, Banks was orphaned at the age of nine after the separate disappearances of his parents. Now, more than twenty years later, he is a celebrated figure in London society; yet the investigative expertise that has garnered him fame has done little to illuminate the circumstances of his parents' alleged kidnappings. Banks travels to the seething, labyrinthine city of his memory in hopes of solving the mystery of his own, painful past, only to find that war is ravaging Shanghai beyond recognition-and that his own recollections are proving as difficult to trust as the people around him.
Masterful, suspenseful and psychologically acute, When We Were Orphans offers a profound meditation on the shifting quality of memory, and the possibility of avenging one’s past.

評分看完《上海孤儿》，毫无疑问这是个并不紧密的故事，暗线的发生一直以孩童时期的主人公叙述道来，碎片式的记忆间插在七个章节里，实际形成双重记忆。时隔久远的上海和战争正在爆发的上海，一切情节上的漏洞和虚弱被时空的远距离模糊掉，战争的背景使其从观感上烟雾弥漫，...

評分《我辈孤雏》是我看的第四本石黑一雄小说。看到80%，我已经抑制不住吐槽的冲动了，等看完连吐槽的兴趣都没有了。 故事如下：一个英国小孩生活在上海租界，与邻居日本小孩是朋友。一天，他爸跟情妇跑了，但他认为他爸是为了反抗帝国主义霸权被绑架了。又过了一阵，他妈妈被一个...

石黑一雄在其他作品中讓人有些不耐的特質在這裏密集地讓人很想拿大棍掄他
