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.

讀後感
在民国梦一度盛行又开始被解构的当下，读这本书还有点意思。 1.最重要的是Christopher这个角色的理想主义和软弱、中立和冷漠。 作为一个理想主义者，当他面对庸碌的逐利之徒时，明明是后者更叫人恶心，前者反而总是显得无理取闹和幼稚。这一点在他回到上海之后尤其明显，穿越...

評分 評分《我辈孤雏》推荐： 非常精彩！这部小说是石黑一雄的第五部长篇小说，也是我自从被他的《被掩埋的巨人》圈粉之后看的第六本石黑的作品，对于他这样一个非常低产的作家来说，能做到每部作品都能保持如此高的水准，足以看出石黑对于文学创作的态度和野心（绝不流于用数量来博关注...
用戶評價
結果相當喜歡這本書的最後幾章 仔細想想覺得萊總BvS裏的一句颱詞很適閤用到這裏 the magical thinking of orphan boys
评分如果是混亂的記憶導緻瞭故事的混亂，一切似乎都可原諒。但是內心還是無法接受。
评分觀望/額，不太感冒。不喜歡這本書。觸動我的地方有兩個，一個是Banks和Sarah曖昧不明準備私奔，一個是Banks和Akira在戰場的那幾句話。說實在的，整本書的結構都不如這幾處寫得精彩。不如A Pale View of Hills.
评分最後那個動機，我仿佛在讀輕小說。尋母的部分是好的。It’s metaphor. It’s symbolic.
评分So many glitches -.-
