具体描述
Doris Lessing's contemporary gothic horror story—centered on the birth of a baby who seems less than human—probes society's unwillingness to recognize its own brutality.Harriet and David Lovatt, parents of four children, have created an idyll of domestic bliss in defiance of the social trends of late 1960s England. While around them crime and unrest surge, the Lovatts are certain that their old-fashioned contentment can protect them from the world outside—until the birth of their fifth baby. Gruesomely goblin-like in appearance, insatiably hungry, abnormally strong and violent, Ben has nothing innocent or infant-like about him. As he grows older and more terrifying, Harriet finds she cannot love him, David cannot bring himself to touch him, and their four older children are afraid of him. Understanding that he will never be accepted anywhere, Harriet and David are torn between their instincts as parents and their shocked reaction to this fierce and unlovable child whose existence shatters their belief in a benign world.

评分“可怜的班。” 这是小说中给我印象最深的一句话。 那时班还很小，他几乎不懂得这句话的含义，他称自己为“可怜的班”。也许只是因为他听到别人这么说他，也许，他真的觉得自己可怜。看到这里的时候，我脑中仿佛被一个大锤狠狠地震了一下，猛然惊醒过来。 班生活在一个幸福的家...
