Lionel Essrog is Brooklyn’s very own self-appointed Human Freakshow, an orphan whose Tourettic impulses drive him to bark, count, and rip apart our language in the most startling and original ways. Together with three veterans of the St. Vincent’s Home for Boys, he works for small-time mobster Frank Minna’s limo service cum detective agency. Life without Frank Minna, the charismatic King of Brooklyn, would be unimaginable, so who cares if the tasks he sets them are, well, not exactly legal. But when Frank is fatally stabbed, one of Lionel’s colleagues lands in jail, the other two vie for his position, and the victim’s widow skips town. Lionel’s world is suddenly topsy-turvy, and this outcast who has trouble even conversing attempts to untangle the threads of the case while trying to keep the words straight in his head. Motherless Brooklyn is a brilliantly original homage to the classic detective novel by one of the most acclaimed writers of his generation.

评分作者的写作风格很特别,或者是因为他描写的主人公有疾病的关系吧。一开始很难进入,坚持听到一半后,节奏加快,就好读很多了。
评分Very enjoyable and well-written (if somewhat light) new take on old-fashioned potboiler fiction. The narrator's Tourette's outbursts of free association are the high point, or at least were for me. I don't envy any Chinese translator who takes this one on -- it'll be a tough gig.

评分很早曾承诺为这本书写代序来着,很囧地拖到了写书评的时间,又拖着不肯写,突然发现文档里这几行字,就贴出来吧。 ------------ 后现代侦探的命运 侦探小说看多了,可以总结出几大套路来。疑凶必然不是真凶,逼真描写的必然不是真实,...

评分By Lily “在抽搐中,寻找宁静,这是生存的真相,但这真相需要透过一个病态的人受折磨的翻译给我们听,才听进去了。”这是一段对《布鲁克林的孤儿》的推荐语。当读完全书,回头再看这句话时,更多的,是对自身的唏嘘和感慨。 《Motherless Brooklyn》,是1999年National Book...
评分在传统的侦探小说里,侦探的形象多半是衣着得体、睿智、冷静且口才了得,擅长在逆境中通过缜密的推理去破解迷案;随时代变化取而代之的犯罪小说中则完全是另一番景象,小说中出现的侦探多半时运不济,尤其是在如今这个可以依靠科技办案的年代,他们边缘化的存在甚至显得有些滑...
