'Marvellous' John Boyne, author of The Boy in the Striped Pyjamas
'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...

讀後感
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...
評分在上个世纪，高等教育不普及，大学教授还是小众的、神秘的群体，他们也被认为是死板的、道德压力沉重的群体，只会做死板的学问，在道德压力和生活死板的折磨中度日，反映这一群体的代表是纳博科夫，《洛丽塔》中的那个傻逼，虽然睡了12岁的小萝莉，但是他的心智和心计甚至不如...

第一二章不錯，後麵流於俗套。有很強的謝耳朵即視感
评分Don紐約之行之後的頓悟讓人蠻驚訝的，紐約真的這麼有魅力嗎？不禁想下次去紐約的時候要按照Don和Rosie的路綫遊曆一遍。也同意Don頓悟之後的心態上的改變：固然每個人都有一些與他人格格不入的地方，但最好的方法仍是在心中保留有“this is me”的部分，但外在舉止和人際交往中，還是應該閤乎“常理”。就像內心搖滾的人未必要外錶搖滾，內心nerd的人未必要外錶nerd。
