Juan Gabriel Vásquez has been hailed not only as one of South America’s greatest literary stars, but also as one of the most acclaimed writers of his generation. In this gorgeously wrought, award-winning novel, Vásquez confronts the history of his home country, Colombia.
In the city of Bogotá, Antonio Yammara reads an article about a hippo that had escaped from a derelict zoo once owned by legendary Colombian drug kingpin Pablo Escobar. The article transports Antonio back to when the war between Escobar’s Medellín cartel and government forces played out violently in Colombia’s streets and in the skies above. Back then, Antonio witnessed a friend’s murder, an event that haunts him still. As he investigates, he discovers the many ways in which his own life and his friend’s family have been shaped by his country’s recent violent past. His journey leads him all the way back to the 1960s and a world on the brink of change: a time before narco-trafficking trapped a whole generation in a living nightmare.
Vásquez is “one of the most original new voices of Latin American literature,” according to Nobel Prize winner Mario Vargas Llosa, and The Sound of Things Falling is his most personal, most contemporary novel to date, a masterpiece that takes his writing—and will take his literary star—even higher.
Juan Gabriel Vásquez’s books include the 2014 International IMPAC Dublin Literary Award winner and national bestseller,?The Sound of Things Falling, as well as the award-winning?The Informers?and?The Secret History of Costaguana.?Vásquez’s novels have been published in seventeen languages worldwide. After sixteen years in France, Belgium, and Spain, he now lives in Bogotá.
Incredible.
评分前面读起来很不错 情节和内在的比例都很好 到了故事展开部分反而有点失色了 可能因为视角的问题。不过还是很抓人的 尤其是配上哥伦比亚的时代背景。

评分大毒枭昔日建立的动物园日后因其被捕而日渐衰败,而无端端被毒枭战争卷入了的哥伦比亚人民,跟那些动物一样的可悲。
评分Gabriel Vasquez最新译成英语的小说,布局构思和《告密者》类似,采用第一人称,撕开记忆,追索遮蔽的过去,涉及哥伦比亚另一段历史,亦糅合其他文体,喜欢作者徐缓沉着、自信耐心的叙事节奏,几次同一时空下两种场景的碰撞非常有趣,标题“坠物之声”富有多层含义,合上最后一页时仿佛真的听见了“东西”坠落的声音。那“东西”是什么?
