1974年他立志以写作为业，并花七年时间写下了处女作《失窃的孩子》。
Inspired by the W.B. Yeats poem that tempts a child from home to the waters and the wild, "The Stolen Child" is a modern fairy tale narrated by the child Henry Day and his double.""On a summer night, Henry Day runs away from home and hides in a hollow tree. There he is taken by the changelings--an unaging tribe of wild children who live in darkness and in secret. They spirit him away, name him Aniday, and make him one of their own. Stuck forever as a child, Aniday grows in spirit, struggling to remember the life and family he left behind. He also seeks to understand and fit in this shadow land, as modern life encroaches upon both myth and nature. In his place, the changelings leave a double, a boy who steals Henry's life in the world. This new Henry Day must adjust to a modern culture while hiding his true identity from the Day family. But he can't hide his extraordinary talent for the piano (a skill the true Henry never displayed), and his dazzling performances prompt his father to suspect that the son he has raised is an imposter. As he ages the new Henry Day becomes haunted by vague but persistent memories of life in another time and place, of a German piano teacher and his prodigy. Of a time when he, too, had been a stolen child. Both Henry and Aniday obsessively search for who they once were before they changed places in the world. "The Stolen Child" is a classic tale of leaving childhood and the search for identity. With just the right mix of fantasy and realism, Keith Donohue has created a bedtime story for adults and a literary fable of remarkable depth and strange delights.

读后感
小说与Yeats的诗作《The Stolen Child》同名，写的同样是人间的孩子和精灵的互动，不过此仙岛非彼仙岛，既没有藏满浆果和樱桃的魔桶，也没有波浪般跳动的月光；既没有迷人的玫瑰园，也没有砂砾上古老的舞步；岁月并不迷人无忧，相反，充满了漫长而不堪忍受的等待。孩子也并非是...
评分 评分整本书看完，突然觉得大脑脱线。孩子们所相信的童话在成人世界却让我感到莫名恐惧。 转身看身边所有人，换生灵仿佛无处不在，开始怀疑周遭，怀疑一切。人生总是很多莫名与无法回避，我们以为生活即如此，却不想也许我们的生活被人偷换了。我们可以不这样生活，地球不仅仅是为我...
评分 评分今天终于把这本《失窃的孩子》看完了，本来是想从里面读出一些好玩的东西的，但是合上书本的时候却只剩下感叹和哀伤。 没有什么时空转换和起死回生的魔法，不管是亨利戴还是安尼戴，或者是古斯塔夫，名字不过是一个符号罢了，而他们作为孩子的那一段时光都已经被偷走了，不再...
