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.
Jonathan Allen Lethem (born February 19, 1964) is an American novelist, essayist and short story writer.
His first novel, Gun, with Occasional Music, a genre work that mixed elements of science fiction and detective fiction, was published in 1994. It was followed by three more science fiction novels. In 1999, Lethem published Motherless Brooklyn, a National Book Critics Circle Award-winning novel that achieved mainstream success. In 2003, he published The Fortress of Solitude, which became a New York Times Best Seller.
In 2005, he received a MacArthur Fellowship
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.

背景说明:是几年前蔡康永在公共电视礼拜二晚上10:00-11:00所主持的节目《周二不读书》中的最后一段,每个礼拜会介绍一本书,当天的来宾是张大春。 ———————— 蔡:今天的主角是张大春,那最后我要推荐的这本小说,跟张大春没有明显直接的关联,可是我的确向张大春提...
评分翻译后就没味道了,原文的精彩之处却变成了味同嚼蜡毫不押韵的文字堆砌,我当然不是质疑译者的水平,而是这类书本就不适合译成中文,有能力的朋友们还是看原版吧,应该是本好书,这是作者的成功,译者的煎熬,读者的郁闷,引进者的失败
评分妥瑞氏症,这个词已经不是我第一次看到了。之前,看电影《叫我第一名》中的主角也换有这种疾病。除了都遭受这种困扰外,他们都有不服输,想要证明自己的决心,或者说 他们只是想过上平凡的生活。 上帝并不是公平的,有些人天生丽质,而有些人从出生就疾病缠身。...
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...
评分说实话,我没太读懂这本书。书中的压抑气氛有点像《红》,但是又不够悬疑。 他是蕴含着一种宗教还有隐晦的政治在其中,以一个人的视角来讲述发生在纽约布鲁克林的故事。 生命很迷茫,而周围的人似乎又很精明。那你的位置又在哪里呢?
