One book. Two readers. A world of mystery, menace, and desire.
A young woman picks up a book left behind by a stranger. Inside it are his margin notes, which reveal a reader entranced by the story and by its mysterious author. She responds with notes of her own, leaving the book for the stranger, and so begins an unlikely conversation that plunges them both into the unknown.
The book: Ship of Theseus, the final novel by a prolific but enigmatic writer named V.M. Straka, in which a man with no past is shanghaied onto a strange ship with a monstrous crew and launched onto a disorienting and perilous journey.
The writer: Straka, the incendiary and secretive subject of one of the world's greatest mysteries, a revolutionary about whom the world knows nothing apart from the words he wrote and the rumors that swirl around him.
The readers: Jennifer and Eric, a college senior and a disgraced grad student, both facing crucial decisions about who they are, who they might become, and how much they're willing to trust another person with their passions, hurts, and fears.
S., conceived by filmmaker J. J. Abrams and written by award-winning novelist Doug Dorst, is the chronicle of two readers finding each other in the margins of a book and enmeshing themselves in a deadly struggle between forces they don't understand, and it is also Abrams and Dorst's love letter to the written word.
J.J. Abrams is the multiple Emmy Award-winning producer, writer, and director of Lost, Star Trek, Alias, The Fringe, Cloverfield, Armageddon, Super 8, and more. This is his debut novel.
Doug Dorst teaches creative writing at Texas State University-San Marcos. His work has appeared in McSweeney's, Ploughshares, Epoch, and other journals, as well as in the anthology Politically Inspired. He is also a former Jeopardy champion.

评分《S.》简体中文版上市后一个月,读者们谈论得最多的,依然是“这本书怎么读?” 在近两年的做书过程中,唯一得到否定答案的,就是作者J.J.艾布拉姆斯拒绝在书中加入阅读说明,“怎么读,也是读者的重要乐趣之一”,希望每一个读者都能有独一无二的阅读体验。 不过,面对这本...
评分 评分花了几十个小时,读的过程中,尽管多次想放弃,尽管云里雾绕,尽管味同嚼蜡,尽管提不起丝毫悬疑的兴趣,但想着红绿毛爷爷,想着豆瓣这么高的评分,想着“《S.》美国版一经推出,便被国外读者选为“超想拥有的小说”,20万册*印,上市即断货.......”(摘自JD的介绍)的宣传标...
终于看完了.....字里行间的英文手写体阅读太艰难了……加的各种资料附件也让这本书很难拿起来阅读....虽然作者通过这种方式营造的身临其境感觉是很独特及成功的。需要看书评,不确定会读第二遍。

评分假装读完了
评分特立独行的畅销读物,形式大于内容。乍一眼感觉十分有趣,进入故事后,不断被批注文字和各种插页内容打扰。只能说我不太适合读这类书……解密的话,直接做语言学和数学的题目就行了。
