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.
名侦探必备的素质是什么?其中一条就是“对细节的把控”。 推理作家用诡计、用文字挑战读者的智慧;而编辑——特别是翻译小说的编辑——则是用一遍遍的阅读、校正、修缮,保证了读者不至于产生理解方面的偏差。作家和编辑,都可谓细节控。 2016年6月,当多数国内读者口口相传...
評分 評分《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...

3.5 沒有代入感的點:1. 書籍沒有老書的氣味。2. 作傢和現實結閤的力度太小。/失望點:1.沒有注解的話SOT本身不是個好故事。2.完全沒有解謎部分,有也被E/J二人劇透瞭。3.討厭看愛情故事(寫得矯情)+秘密行動部分人物和故事塑造都太差。 ps. 勝在想法不錯。
评分翻開扉頁就跪瞭...強推!!@beatrixwang 請一定看一看,需要skype討論
评分終於看完瞭.....字裏行間的英文手寫體閱讀太艱難瞭……加的各種資料附件也讓這本書很難拿起來閱讀....雖然作者通過這種方式營造的身臨其境感覺是很獨特及成功的。需要看書評,不確定會讀第二遍。
评分#原版收藏# 對瞭我搞到瞭英文原版,這裏馬剋一下。
评分書的形式很新穎,但是遺留的謎團太多而且高潮欠缺。難免會有一頭霧水的感覺。四星,少對不起價錢,多對不起質量。
