'Adorable... A gem of a book' Marian Keyes
The Rosie Project by Graeme Simsion is a story about love, life and lobsters...
Meet Don Tillman.
Don is getting married.
He just doesn't know who to yet.
But he has designed a very detailed questionnaire to help him find the perfect woman.
One thing he already knows, though, is that it's not Rosie.
Absolutely, completely, definitely not.
Telling the story of Rosie and Don, Graeme Simsion's The Rosie Project is an international phenomenon, sold in over thirty countries - and counting.
Don Tillman is a socially challenged genetics professor who's decided the time has come to find a wife. His questionnaire is intended to weed out anyone who's unsuitable. The trouble is, Don has rather high standards and doesn't really do flexible so, despite lots of takers - he looks like Gregory Peck - he's not having much success in identifying The One.
When Rosie Jarman comes to his office, Don assumes it's to apply for the Wife Project - and duly discounts her on the grounds she smokes, drinks, doesn't eat meat, and is incapable of punctuality. However, Rosie has no interest in becoming Mrs Tillman and is actually there to enlist Don's assistance in a professional capacity: to help her find her biological father.
Sometimes, though, you don't find love: love finds you...
Like The Unlikely Pilgrimage of Harold Fry, The Rosie Project by Graeme Simsion is a truly distinctive debut. With the charm of Mark Haddon's The Curious Incident of the Dog in the Night-Time and the romance of David Nicholls' One Day, it's both funny and endearing - and is set to become the feel-good novel of 2013...

读后感
孤独和寂寞不一样，寂寞会发慌，孤独则是饱满的。 说实话，我到现在也没明白，这句话究竟是史铁生说的，还是蒋勋说的。但诚然如此。 这本书的主角——唐，本身就是一名阿斯伯格综合征患者，当然按照他的说法，这不能称为“患者”，而是大脑的“配置”与他人不同。 当然，我本来...
评分 评分当谢耳朵爱上罗茜 文 by 静流 看到唐的每日晚餐按部就班的安排时，再结合他那理性到刻板的生活，唐的形象便慢慢变成了谢耳朵的样子，那个瘦高的科学怪人，唐和谢耳朵一样对日常生活无能，像谢耳朵一样不知如何与他人相处，就像个冷冰冰的机器，他们的存在只是科学、理性的...
评分Reading this book has reallly been great fun. It can't be denied that there are certain similarities between Don and Sheldon from the Big Bang Throry. They are both extremely clever but also clusmsy especially on social events. The reason why we find such c...
评分我相信首富推荐这本书一定是因为他喜欢这本小说，原因我猜可能是因为首富在男主角唐的身上隐约看到了自己的影子（人们总是喜欢能从中找到共鸣的小说）：理工钢铁直男，不擅交际，超然的理性，目标性强，却缺乏感性的部分。 男主角唐虽是一名“高富帅”大学教授，却因为阿斯伯格...
用户评价
读完了，不愧是 IT 同仁写的小说，充满了共鸣。作者的文笔相当有趣（虽然这种见面说 greetings, 对说 correct，错说 error 的人在现实中肯定是相当讨人厌的）但还是在每一章都道出了不少真谛（又可以称为学术帝的吐槽）。后在亚马逊买了精装版，隔天就到。说好的四到六周发货呢！
