Laura Chase's older sister Iris, married at eighteen to a politically prominent industrialist but now poor and eighty-two, is living in Port Ticonderoga, a town dominated by their once-prosperous family before the First War. While coping with her unreliable body, Iris reflects on her far from exemplary life, in particular the events surrounding her sister's tragic death. Chief among these was the publication of The Blind Assassin, a novel which earned the dead Laura Chase not only notoriety but also a devoted cult following. Sexually explicit for its time, The Blind Assassin describes a risky affair in the turbulent thirties between a wealthy young woman and a man on the run. During their secret meetings in rented rooms, the lovers concoct a pulp fantasy set on Planet Zycron. As the invented story twists through love and sacrifice and betrayal, so does the real one; while events in both move closer to war and catastrophe. By turns lyrical, outrageous, formidable, compelling and funny, this is a novel filled with deep humour and dark drama.

很多年以前读到关于《狂恋大提琴》的评论时,只觉得那是不忍卒读的文字。心下还猜想:或者,这是安妮宝贝刻意为之的妖异?及到真将那一张DVD推入笔记本,在一个夏夜的两小时之后,才发现电影本身比那一篇评论要厚重许多,更残酷太多。 妹妹赤裸着身体在树林里遍体鳞伤,哭泣...

这是一部前紧后松、前好后差的小说,让人感觉一头沉。 首先是结构,本书的结构是否能算得上精巧?我看不能,因为它并不完整。如果说,小说开头是依靠双女主视角、现在和过去的变换、现实和虚构的关联来构成所谓嵌套结构的话,那么结尾的反转是不是有意打破了这种结构?比如,在...

那是一个慵懒而疲惫的周末上午,我躺在床上把它翻到最后一页。一个字一个字念出来,直到自己哽咽不能。我承认自己有借题发挥的嫌疑,眼泪不过凭借任何借口跑出来而已。但那种心情——一直到最后,你把密码留给风,还是等不到你所希冀的人来眷顾。在这一点上,不是你不想,而是...

不知道为什么,看完一本跟自己有点特殊缘分的书总是觉得要写下点什么才算是完结。其实这个有缘,也没有看上去那么玄乎,它大致可以解释为我喜欢的,或者是认识很久,一直打算要看,可是却因为种种原因一直没看的书。或许还有一种是我们遇见的方式比较特别。总之,《盲刺客》就...

看了玛.阿特伍德的《盲刺客》,我觉得看完这个真的是一件十分值得纪念的事情。毕竟某人长这么大以来,完整看完的两部外国长篇小说除了《蝴蝶梦》就是这个了…… 我记得我看《怪物》的时候,因为很喜欢这部漫画于是曾想过要把里面的人物都给写一篇文章,当然这计划最后在某人...
